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 even more supple and gaining character with wear.

How should I care for the leather to maintain its appearance?

To preserve the leather, avoid exposure to excessive moisture and direct sunlight. Use a leather conditioner specifically designed for sheep leather every few months to keep it supple. Store it in a cool, dry place when not in use.

Is the jacket lined, and if so, with what material?

The jacket does not include a lining, which makes it versatile for layering over different types of clothing while maintaining a lightweight feel.

What is the thickness of the leather?

The sheep leather used in this jacket is approximately 0.8 to 1.0 millimetres thick, offering a balance between durability and flexibility.

Can the jacket be worn in rainy conditions?

While the leather is naturally water-resistant to some extent, it is not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to rain may cause the leather to darken or become stiff, so it’s best to avoid heavy downpours.

How does the shirt collar style differ from a traditional jacket collar?

The shirt-style collar is more relaxed and less structured than a traditional jacket collar, giving the jacket a casual yet refined look. It can be worn open or buttoned up for a more polished appearance.

Are there any special considerations for choosing the right size?

The regular or straight cut is designed to fit most body types comfortably. If you prefer a snug fit, consider sizing down, but ensure the measurements align with your chest, waist, and hip dimensions for the best result.
