An iconic biker jacket reimagined for the modern woman

The COSMOS 2 BLACK by Cityzen is a perfecto that pays homage to the legendary biker style while offering a contemporary, feminine twist. Crafted from supple yet durable sheep leather, this jacket blends timeless design with practicality, making it a versatile piece for any wardrobe. Its tailored fit, cinched waist, and snug sleeves ensure a flattering silhouette, while the signature D-pocket, epaulettes, and multiple zipped pockets—waist, chest, and internal—stay true to the biker aesthetic. Designed for mid-season wear, it strikes the perfect balance between warmth and comfort, adapting effortlessly to casual, rock, or chic outfits.

A jacket with a story

The perfecto’s origins trace back to the 1920s, when motorcycle culture began shaping fashion. Originally designed for riders, it became a symbol of rebellion and style, famously worn by icons like Marlon Brando and James Dean. The COSMOS 2 BLACK channels this heritage while refining it for today’s woman. The sheep leather, known for its softness and durability, develops a rich patina over time, ensuring the jacket ages beautifully. Whether paired with joggers and sneakers for a laid-back look or a dress for an evening out, it’s a piece that transcends trends.

Crafted for quality and value

Developed over nearly a year, the COSMOS 2 BLACK reflects Cityzen’s commitment to excellence. The jacket’s construction prioritises both style and functionality, with reinforced stitching and high-quality zips ensuring longevity. For maintenance, a simple impermeabilisation treatment at purchase (renewed once or twice a year) and occasional conditioning with leather milk will keep the black hue vibrant and the leather supple.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

This jacket is made from supple yet durable sheep leather. Over time, it develops a rich patina, softening further while maintaining its strength. The black dye may lighten slightly with wear, adding character to high-friction areas like the elbows and collar.

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

Apply a leather protector when new and reapply once or twice yearly. For cleaning, use a damp cloth followed by a leather conditioner to preserve suppleness. Store it on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight to prevent drying or colour fading.

What is the thickness of the leather and how does it affect warmth?

The leather measures approximately 1.2-1.4mm thick, providing moderate insulation suitable for mid-season wear. It offers enough warmth for spring and autumn while remaining breathable enough for layering in cooler weather.

Are the zipped pockets secure for carrying small items?

Yes, all zipped pockets feature sturdy metal zippers with smooth operation. The interior pocket is particularly secure for valuables, while the chest and waist pockets are designed for easy access without compromising security.

How does the waist cinching affect the fit for different body types?

The adjustable belt at the waist allows for subtle customisation of the silhouette. It accommodates various body shapes while maintaining the jacket's feminine cut, though those with very full hips may find the fit snug when cinched tightly.

Can the jacket be worn comfortably with layers underneath?

The tailored cut allows for light layering, such as a thin sweater or hoodie, though bulkier items may feel restrictive. The supple leather provides enough flexibility for comfortable movement with moderate layers.
