How does this jacket fit compared to standard sizing?

The jacket is cut with a regular fit through the chest and shoulders, relaxed through the body. The longline hem hits mid-thigh. We recommend checking the size guide and measuring a similar garment you own. If you prefer a closer fit for layering under topcoats, consider sizing down.

Can this jacket be worn in light rain?

Leather has natural water resistance and can withstand light moisture, but prolonged exposure to rain can damage the finish. If the jacket gets wet, blot excess moisture immediately with a soft cloth and air-dry away from heat sources. Apply a leather conditioner once dry to restore suppleness.

What is the difference between a car coat and a trench coat?

A car coat is shorter than a traditional trench - typically mid-thigh length - and was originally designed for ease of movement when driving. This style features a button front and notch lapels rather than the belted waist and storm flap of a classic trench. The silhouette is cleaner and less structured.

How should I store this jacket when not wearing it?

Store the jacket on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag to maintain its shape and protect it from dust. Avoid plastic bags, which trap moisture. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Condition the leather twice a year to prevent drying.

Will this jacket stretch or change shape over time?

Leather naturally conforms to the wearer's body with regular use. The jacket will soften and develop slight give in high-movement areas like the elbows and shoulders. This break-in process enhances comfort without compromising structure. The tonal top-stitching and bound seams maintain the silhouette.

Lifetime RepairsWe stand behind our craft

This men's leather jacket with collar is a button-front car coat cut from smooth-finish black leather with a natural grain structure. The longline silhouette and notch lapels reference mid-century car coats - the kind that aged into a second skin in the back seat of a Jaguar. Tonal top-stitching traces every seam, and four patch pockets sit flat against the body. The leather arrives with a semi-matte finish that will develop a subtle sheen as the hide breaks in.
