CAMDEN Leather Coach Jacket, Short and Wide, Thick French Sheepskin

In 1930s America, young people began wearing leather jackets as everyday clothes. They were called sports jackets: a turn-down collar, a short body, leather all over and simple pockets. After the war, school sports took off in the 1950s and gave rise to the letterman jacket. CAMDEN takes the short, wide silhouette of that line and reworks it.

The leather is French sheepskin, 1.4 mm thick. It is sheep leather, but thick and firm, so the body is cut generously to let the leather hold the outline on its own. Short length, raglan sleeves, a snap front and a shirt collar.

■ Care
・Black leather can transfer colour while it is new. Keep it off pale clothes at first.
・Do not wash, tumble dry, dry clean or iron.
・Keep it out of the rain. If it does get wet, blot the water off with a dry cloth and let it dry naturally in the shade.
・Store it on a hanger that matches the shoulder width.
・Wipe marks with a dry soft cloth and feed the leather with a leather cream as needed.
・Keep it out of direct sunlight, heat and damp.

■ About natural leather
・Creases, vein marks, scars and unevenness of colour are part of a natural hide, not faults.
・Colour may transfer or fade, and the leather will change with wear.
・Every piece looks slightly different.
