The Leather Jacket

A pure café-racer silhouette, rebuilt with uncompromising authenticity. Handmade in Japan from vegetable-tanned horsehide with a pigment finish, this jacket was born on 1950s racetracks and refined for modern streets. The hide is dense yet supple and will develop depth and character with wear. 

Clean, minimal lines lead the design: twin zipped chest pockets, McCoy’s square front zipper, 1950s Talon sleeve zips, seven-link chain pocket zips, and a Buco DOT collar snap — all period-correct hardware over a smooth rayon lining for easy layering.

This Black Essential distills speed, precision, and heritage into a single form — a black leather jacket that doesn’t shout, it endures.
