This is not just a jacket—it’s a tribute to the golden age of motorsport and the rebellious spirit of Steve McQueen.

The CHARLIE SHEEP STEVE MCQUEEN NUBUCK DARK RED ZZ is a piece that commands attention, not just for its striking dark red hue, but for the story it carries. Crafted from premium nubuck sheep leather, this jacket blends the raw, tactile appeal of suede-like texture with the durability and character of high-quality leather. The tanning process and unique colouration make it a standout, ensuring no two jackets look exactly alike. It’s a garment that doesn’t just clothe you—it becomes part of your identity.

A design that pays homage to racing legends.

Inspired by the iconic style of Steve McQueen and the adrenaline-fuelled world of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, this jacket captures the essence of vintage motorsport. The regular fit and straight cut offer a timeless silhouette, while the racing-inspired patches add a touch of eccentricity and authenticity. The shirt-style collar, a nod to classic racing jackets, enhances its retro appeal. Chrome press studs and zips not only provide functionality but also catch the light, adding a subtle yet striking detail that elevates the overall look.

More than just a jacket—an experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is nubuck leather and how does it differ from suede?

Nubuck is made from the outer side of sheep leather, giving it a finer grain and a velvety texture. Unlike suede, which comes from the inner side, nubuck is more durable and has a slightly more pronounced nap. It’s also more resistant to wear but requires careful maintenance to preserve its appearance.

How should I care for nubuck to maintain its texture?

Nubuck requires gentle cleaning with a soft-bristled brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, use a specialised nubuck cleaner and avoid water, as it can leave marks. Always store it in a cool, dry place and use a protective spray to guard against moisture and stains.

Is the lining removable or washable?

The printed lining is not removable and should not be washed. To clean it, use a soft cloth or a brush to gently remove dust. For deeper cleaning, consult a professional leather specialist to avoid damaging the fabric or the leather.

What does the 'regular fit' mean for this jacket?

A regular fit offers a straight, relaxed silhouette that sits comfortably without being too loose or too fitted. It’s designed to accommodate layering, such as a sweater or light jacket underneath, while maintaining a classic, vintage-inspired shape.

Are the racing patches purely decorative or do they serve a function?

The racing patches are primarily decorative, paying homage to the motorsport aesthetic inspired by Steve McQueen. They add a vintage, eclectic touch to the jacket but do not serve a functional purpose like reinforcement or fastening.

How does the dark red colour evolve with wear?

The dark red nubuck will develop a subtle patina over time, softening in tone and gaining character with use. Exposure to light and natural oils from wear will enhance its depth, creating a unique, lived-in appearance that reflects the jacket’s history.

Can the chrome hardware tarnish or require maintenance?

Chrome hardware is resistant to tarnishing but can lose its shine over time. To maintain its lustre, wipe it occasionally with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they can scratch or dull the finish.
