Designed in collaboration with the 24 Hours of Le Mans, this jacket blends the rugged elegance of a racer’s silhouette with the refined comfort of sheep leather. The matte black finish and iconic patches on the chest and sleeve instantly evoke the spirit of classic motorsport, while the ribbed cuffs and waistband keep the wind at bay, just like the original racing jackets of the 1960s.

The left sleeve pocket, a nod to vintage racing jackets, provides practical storage without compromising the clean lines of the design.
