An old-sable sheepskin jacket that tells a story before you even wear it.

The GREG OLD SABLE from Cityzen isn’t just another leather jacket—it’s a piece that carries the weight of time in its very fibres. Crafted from reversed sheepskin, this jacket plays with texture and depth, offering a surface that feels as rich as it looks. The "old sable" finish isn’t a trick of dye or a fleeting trend; it’s a deliberate choice to mimic the natural patina that develops over years of wear, giving the jacket an instant sense of history. The regular cut ensures it sits comfortably on most builds, neither clinging too tightly nor drowning the frame, while the genuine fur lining promises warmth without sacrificing breathability. This is a jacket built for autumn’s crisp mornings and winter’s biting afternoons, where style and function aren’t just balanced—they’re intertwined.

A material that ages as gracefully as it performs.

Reversed sheepskin is a material that demands respect. Unlike traditional leather, where the smooth, outer side is showcased, reversed sheepskin flips the script, exposing the softer, more textured underside. This isn’t just an aesthetic choice—it’s a practical one. The natural nap of the skin traps air, creating an insulating layer that keeps the cold at bay, while the dense fibres make it remarkably resistant to wear. Over time, the "old sable" hue will deepen and shift, developing a patina that’s unique to the wearer. It’s a material that doesn’t just last; it evolves, becoming more personal with every outing. And because it’s sheepskin, it remains supple and lightweight, avoiding the stiffness that can plague heavier leathers.

A silhouette that bridges the gap between rugged and refined.

The GREG OLD SABLE walks a fine line between two worlds. Its regular fit and clean lines give it a versatility that suits everything from a casual weekend brunch to a night out in the city. The absence of excessive hardware or embellishments keeps the focus on the material and the cut, allowing the jacket to adapt rather than dictate. Yet, there’s an undeniable edge to it—a nod to the classic leather jacket archetype, softened by the warmth of the fur and the muted tones of the sable finish. It’s the kind of piece that doesn’t scream for attention but commands it all the same, a quiet confidence that comes from knowing it’s built to last.
