Frequently Asked Questions

What is rough out suede, and how does it differ from regular suede?

Rough out suede is made from the flesh side of the hide, rather than the grain side used for traditional suede. This gives it a more rugged, textured appearance and makes it slightly thicker and more durable. It also develops a unique patina over time, enhancing its character with wear.

How warm is the sherpa lining compared to other winter linings?

Sherpa lining is a thick, plush fabric that provides excellent insulation, similar to shearling but lighter in weight. It traps heat effectively, making it ideal for cold weather, though it may not be as warm as a full shearling lining in extreme conditions.

Can the sherpa collar be removed completely, or is it partially attached?

The sherpa collar is fully removable, allowing you to adjust the jacket’s warmth and style depending on the weather or your preference.

What is the purpose of the locker loop inside the collar?

The locker loop is a functional detail originally used to hang the jacket securely, such as on a hook or peg. It’s a nod to vintage workwear and adds a practical touch for storage.

How does the 1 mm thickness of the buffalo suede affect durability?

A 1 mm thickness strikes a balance between durability and flexibility. Buffalo suede is naturally tough, so even at this thickness, it remains resilient against wear while staying comfortable and easy to move in.

Is the jacket suitable for wet weather, given it’s made of suede?

Suede, including buffalo suede, is not naturally waterproof. While it can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to rain or snow may cause staining or damage. It’s best to treat it with a waterproofing spray and avoid heavy downpours.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a padded hanger to maintain its shape, and avoid plastic covers to allow the suede to breathe. For long-term storage, consider a breathable garment bag.
