How does this vest fit compared to a standard jacket size?

It's cut close through the body with a straight hem at the natural waist. The ribbed collar and cuffs provide some give, but the suede body holds its shape. If you plan to layer over thick knits, size up; otherwise, your usual jacket size should work.

Suede should not be soaked. Light moisture won't ruin it, but water will darken the material and stiffen the nap. If it does get wet, blot immediately with a clean cloth and let it air-dry away from heat. Brush with a suede brush once dry to restore the texture.

What's the difference between suede and smooth leather?

Suede is the flesh side of the hide, buffed to raise a soft nap. Smooth leather is the grain side, which has a tighter surface. Suede is more breathable and has a matte finish, but it's also more vulnerable to water and stains. Both are real leather.

Does this vest have interior pockets?

No interior pockets are visible in the product images. The vest has two angled zip hand pockets and two button-flap chest pockets on the exterior.

Lifetime RepairsWe stand behind our craft

This mens leather vest is a sleeveless biker silhouette cut from burgundy suede with ribbed knit collar and hem. The napped surface catches light unevenly - matte in some angles, slightly warmer where the pile shifts - and the suede will burnish at wear points over time. Angled zip pockets sit low on the body, and tonal top-stitching traces the western-style yoke across the back. The ribbed collar and cuffs are knit in a deep brown that anchors the wine tone of the hide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, this is genuine suede - the napped underside of a hide, buffed to create the soft texture. It's a form of leather, not a synthetic, and it will age and develop character like any natural material.
