This is the kind of leather jacket that doesn’t just follow trends—it sets them.

The TRUST CASTING COGNAC from Redskins is a slim-fit biker jacket crafted from full-grain sheepskin leather, designed to hug the body with precision. Weighing in at 1.2 kg, it strikes the perfect balance between structure and wearability, making it ideal for autumn layering. The collar, secured with two press studs, nods to classic motorcycle styling, while the semi-thick polyester lining ensures warmth without bulk. The jacket’s construction is meticulous: striped panels, reinforced stitching at the sleeves and sides, and articulated shoulders allow for ease of movement. Three zipped external pockets and two internal ones offer practical storage, and the metal Redskins badge on the left sleeve adds a touch of heritage. The cuffs feature zippered gussets for adjustability, and the front closes with a robust zip. Available in cognac, togo, black, and elephant, it’s a piece that evolves with wear, developing a unique patina over time.

A jacket built for the urban explorer.

The TRUST CASTING isn’t just about looks—it’s about versatility. The slim fit and structured shoulders make it a natural pairing with jeans and trainers for a contemporary, off-duty look. But don’t let the sleek silhouette fool you: the sheepskin leather is durable enough to handle city commutes and weekend rides alike. The semi-thick lining provides just enough insulation for crisp autumn days, while the breathable nature of the leather prevents overheating. Whether you’re layering it over a hoodie or wearing it open over a tee, the jacket adapts to your style. And with its mix of functional details—like the zipped pockets and adjustable cuffs—it’s as practical as it is stylish.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

This jacket is made from 100% sheepskin leather, known for its softness and lightweight feel. Over time, sheepskin develops a rich patina, especially in areas of frequent contact like the cuffs and collar, giving it a unique, worn-in character.

How warm is the lining for autumn weather?

The semi-thick polyester lining provides moderate warmth, making it well-suited for autumn. It offers enough insulation for cool days without being overly heavy, balancing comfort and breathability.

What does the 'zip d'aisance' at the wrists do?

The 'zip d'aisance' (ease zip) at the wrists allows you to adjust the fit around the cuffs. This feature provides flexibility, making it easier to wear the jacket over layers or to create a snug fit when needed.

Is the slim fit cut restrictive for layering?

The slim fit is tailored close to the body, which may limit layering with thick jumpers. However, the zip d'aisance at the wrists and the overall flexibility of the sheepskin leather help accommodate light layers comfortably.

How should I care for the sheepskin leather to maintain its quality?

To preserve the leather, avoid exposing it to excessive moisture or direct sunlight for prolonged periods. 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.

What are the striped panels on the jacket for?

The striped panels, or 'empiècements striés,' are a design detail that adds texture and visual interest to the jacket. They also subtly enhance the biker-inspired aesthetic while breaking up the smooth surface of the leather.

Can the jacket be worn in wet conditions?

While sheepskin leather is naturally water-resistant to some extent, it is not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions can damage the leather, so it’s best to avoid wearing it in heavy rain or to use a protective spray designed for leather.
