Men’s Horsehide Roadster Jacket

Almost hip length cut leather jacket in a classic roadster form. The two side pleats, also called "skeet folds" (as are common in clay pigeon shooting or "skeet" shooting), allow the wearer a special freedom of movement. With the two-way zipper (by RiRi) the collar can be closed up to under the chin, the sleeve vents are also equipped with zippers.
More details: two semi-sloping front pockets with brass zippers, one inside pocket on the left with zipper and a vertical pocket for your mobile phone on the right.

These ‚roadster‘ jackets are made of French hide, which is then processed in Italy to produce a thick (almost 1 cm), yet soft and comfortable leather, tanned to give a gentle matt shimmer. A deep-dye process is used, and the leather is then polished to give a blackbrown tone with a warm, vibrant inner glow. Made for us by Hack in Cologne.

For decades, Christoph Hack has been dealing with very different kinds of leather in Cologne, collecting a wealth of experience that all goes into the design of his garments. For example, Hack only works with untreated leather, on which a considerable patina forms over time. The resulting changes in colour and surface are expressly desired because they allow the leather garment to age with honour. The jackets are partially assembled at the Hack headquarters in Cologne and partly in a Polish partner company.

Care instructions:

Horse leather is, like all dyed leather, impervious to most things. Should the need arise, we recommend treating the leather using a small amount of leather care cream applied with a soft wool cloth.
