Frequently Asked Questions

What type of leather is used and how does it age over time?

This jacket is made from sheep leather, known for its softness and lightweight feel. Over time, it develops a rich patina, becoming more supple and gaining character with wear. The natural oils in the leather help it maintain durability while adapting to your movements.

Is the fur collar removable and how do I care for it?

Yes, the genuine fur collar is fully removable. To maintain its quality, avoid exposing it to excessive moisture. Brush it gently with a soft-bristle brush to keep it looking fresh, and store it in a cool, dry place when not in use.

How should I choose the right size for a regular fit?

The regular fit is designed to sit comfortably without being too loose or tight. Measure your chest and waist, then compare with the size guide. Sheep leather has some stretch, so if you're between sizes, opt for the smaller one for a snug fit that will loosen slightly over time.

What is the warmth level of this jacket for different seasons?

The sheep leather provides moderate warmth, making it suitable for spring and autumn. The removable fur collar adds extra insulation for cooler days, while the cotton lining ensures breathability. It’s not ideal for extreme winter conditions unless layered with a thick sweater.

How do I maintain the leather to keep it in good condition?

Clean the leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt, then apply a leather conditioner every few months to prevent drying. Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources, which can cause cracking. Store it on a padded hanger to maintain its shape.

Are the ribbed cuffs and waistband stretchy?

Yes, the ribbed cuffs and waistband are made from a stretchy knit fabric, providing a snug fit that adapts to your movements. They help retain warmth while ensuring the jacket stays in place.

What kind of occasions is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket blends sporty elegance with a touch of vintage racing inspiration, making it versatile for casual outings, urban wear, or even semi-formal events when paired with the right pieces. Its design pays homage to motorsport heritage, so it pairs well with jeans, chinos, or tailored trousers.
