About “sheepskin” on the care label
In Chinese, goats and sheep are often both simply called “sheep”, so some care labels say sheepskin. The leather is goatskin. We apologise for the confusing label. (FAQ)

The leather western shirt is said to go back to the 1600s. Native Americans had long worn deerskin tops, and the Spanish settlers who came later took them up, reworked them and turned them into the cowboy's shirt jacket, with a yoke across the shoulders to make it last. In the 1900s, as cowboy culture spread across America, the western shirt changed again. Snaps replaced buttons, so cuffs no longer caught on fences.
LARAMIE is named after a historic western town in Wyoming, long tied to ranching, the railway and cowboy culture. It is a western shirt with reinforcing yokes over both shoulders, made up as a leather shirt jacket. It comes in two newly developed leathers.
The leather is a heavyweight goatskin about 1.6 mm thick. It comes from goats raised in a cold climate, and its grain and feel are close to deerskin to begin with. The fibres were opened up thoroughly in the tannery to give it the soft hand of deerskin. Goatskin has a cleaner grain with fewer scars than deerskin, and its firm grain layer makes up for deerskin's weak point, its lack of durability. The smell typical of goatskin has been taken out too. It has both the substance of a thick hide and a supple drape.
The same shirt jacket in the limited wine red oil-wax horsehide is rs-wk-038.

■ Care
・Colour or oil can transfer to pale clothes while the jacket 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.
