Hack manufactures this jacket from high-quality pull-up leather. The close fibres of the shell result in a smooth and pliable leather that develops a vibrant, natural patina over time. The jacket features a stand-up collar with a button-fastening strap and wool lining in the trunk. It's cut a bit longer in the back, with a rounded hem; inserted movement folds ensure maximum comfort in a slim fit. Comes with contrasting light-coloured seams and a brass RiRi zip. Two zips on the sleeves enable to adjust the sleeves' width; the underlying inserts are made of leather and finished with pinking shears. The jacket features side pockets with piping and two inside pockets, the left one of which is inserted vertically.

Behind Hack Lederware is Christoph Hack, founder and master leatherworker with his own studio in Cologne. For decades, he has been working with a wide variety of leathers, gaining a wealth of experience that flows into the design of his garments. For example, Hack uses exclusively open-pored leather from Germany, Italy, and Scandinavia to craft durable, functional clothing and understated accessories for us. The pieces, made from cowhide, horsehide, and deerskin, bear traces of the animals’ lives, such as insect bites or thorn tears. Their patina—which develops through movement and frequent wear—is expressly desired, as it demonstrates that the leather garment is allowed to age gracefully. It is precisely through this natural aging process that Hack’s jackets acquire their unique “character.” They are manufactured at Hack’s headquarters in Cologne and at a partner facility in Poland.
