Men's Jacket Redskins CARDIFF CALISTA RED WHITE
Product Description
Redskins’ Cardiff Calista in Red White – a racing-bred leather jacket that wears its motorsport soul on its sleeves.
This is not just another biker jacket. The Cardiff Calista channels the raw energy of the track, blending the grit of vintage racing leathers with the precision of modern tailoring. The result is a slim-fit leather jacket that feels as fast standing still as it does on the back of a café racer.
The leather: full-grain sheepskin, tanned for character.
Redskins chose full-grain sheepskin for its natural suppleness and durability. The tannage is premium, allowing the leather to develop a rich patina over time—each crease and scuff tells a story. The dominant red hue is deep and warm, while the white racing stripes on the sleeves add a high-contrast pop that nods to classic motorsport liveries.
Construction: built for movement, designed for style.
The jacket’s slim silhouette hugs the body without restricting motion, thanks to articulated sleeves and a slightly dropped shoulder. The officer collar—secured with press studs—can be worn up for a vintage aviator look or left open for a more relaxed vibe. The central metal zip, distressed for a lived-in feel, runs the full length of the front, while zipped vents at the back of the sleeves ensure airflow when you’re on the move.
Pockets and details: function meets flair.
A zipped chest pocket keeps essentials secure, while two angled lower pockets offer easy access without breaking the jacket’s clean lines. The white contrast stripes on the sleeves aren’t just decorative—they’re a signature of racing jackets, a visual cue that ties the Cardiff Calista to its motorsport roots.
Redskins has been crafting leather jackets since 1979, drawing inspiration from the rebellious spirit of rock ’n’ roll and the precision of motorsport. Based in France, the brand blends traditional leatherworking techniques with contemporary design, creating pieces that are as timeless as they are wearable. Each Redskins jacket is a tribute to the art of leather—where heritage meets modern edge.

Frequently Asked Questions
This jacket is made from premium sheepskin leather, known for its softness and durability. Over time, it develops a rich patina, enhancing its character while maintaining its supple feel. The tanning process ensures the leather retains its colour and texture even with regular wear.
To preserve the leather, avoid exposing it to prolonged moisture or direct sunlight. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust and apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for sheepskin to keep it supple. Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally on a padded hanger to maintain its shape.
The central metal zipper is both functional and decorative. It features a distressed finish to complement the aged look of the leather, while the zips on the sleeves and pockets are fully functional, allowing for adjustable ventilation and secure storage.
The sheepskin leather used is moderately thick, providing a balance between structure and flexibility. While it offers some insulation, it is best suited for mild to cool weather. For colder conditions, layering with a sweater or thermal underneath is recommended.
The slim fit is tailored to follow the body’s contours more closely than a standard cut. It is designed to sit snugly without restricting movement, making it ideal for those who prefer a streamlined silhouette. If you typically wear a relaxed fit, consider sizing up for a more comfortable experience.
The white bands are made from a durable fabric, but like any light-coloured material, they may show stains over time. To minimise this, avoid rubbing against surfaces that could transfer dirt or oils. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap can help maintain their appearance.
The officer collar is designed to be versatile. It can be worn standing up for a classic motard look or folded down for a more casual appearance. The press-stud fastening ensures it stays in place once adjusted to your preference.
Caring for your leather
This product is made of sheepskin leather. Sheep is a skin very similar to lamb. It is the age of the beast that will change the name of the leather. The leather is therefore fine, soft and light as well.
You will just need to waterproof the skin once and renew it from time to time, depending on how often you wear your leather. You can also use a delicate cream to give a new shine to your product.
