Our standard

Full-grain leather jackets, designed to be worn for decades. This page sets out what that means: the leather, the construction, the fit, care and repairs, and delivery from Melbourne.

Leather

Our jackets use full-grain lambskin and cowhide. Lambskin is lighter and softer, cowhide is firmer and heavier. Every product page names the hide, its finish, lining and weight.

Full-grain means the top layer of the hide is left intact, with no sanding and no embossed finish. It darkens and softens with use instead of cracking or peeling.

Construction

Panels are cut to follow the grain and joined with twin-needle seams. We publish the leather, finish, weight, lining and hardware for every style, so you can compare them.

Fit

Every size has garment measurements for chest, shoulder, sleeve and length, in cm and inches, taken flat on the jacket. Each product page also says how tall the model is and which size they are wearing.

Not sure of your size? Send us your height and chest measurement and we will recommend one. Between sizes, or layering over a knit, choose the larger size.

Twice a year
Condition with a neutral balm
Storage

Avoid
Heat, direct sun, machine washing

Zips, snaps, seams and linings can be repaired. Email us a photo and your order reference and we will quote before any work starts. [repair terms to confirm]
