A sleek, modern take on the classic leather jacket—without the bulk.

The Trooper Noir from Chevignon is a short, straight-cut leather jacket crafted from supple lambskin, designed for those who want the timeless appeal of leather with a refined, understated edge. At just 65 cm in length (size M), it sits neatly at the waist, offering a clean silhouette that flatters without overwhelming. The lambskin used here is lightweight and fine, making it a versatile piece that transitions effortlessly from season to season—layer it over a shirt in autumn or a lightweight knit in spring.

Precision in the details.

This isn’t a jacket that shouts for attention, but the quality manufacturing speaks for itself. The double-slider zip closure ensures a smooth, secure fit, while the zippered cuffs add a subtle biker-inspired touch without straying into overtly rebellious territory. Two zippered pockets on the front provide practical storage, and the two internal pockets are perfect for keeping essentials safe and out of sight. The shirt-style collar lends a polished finish, making it just as suitable for a smart-casual dinner as it is for a weekend outing.

Built for movement, made to last.

Lambskin is known for its softness and flexibility, and this jacket is no exception. The leather moulds to the body over time, developing a unique patina that tells the story of its wear. While it’s lightweight, don’t mistake it for fragility—this is a jacket designed to age gracefully, with a construction that balances structure and fluidity.

Chevignon has been a staple in the world of leather outerwear since its founding in 1979, blending quality manufacturing with a rebellious spirit. Originally inspired by the rugged aesthetics of military and biker jackets, the brand has evolved to offer refined, contemporary designs that retain a hint of that original edge. Today, Chevignon is synonymous with quality leather goods that bridge the gap between classic tailoring and urban style—proving that a well-made jacket can be both a statement and a wardrobe staple.
