We have created a new leather jacket that takes advantage of the material to create a more vintage feel.
The vintage base for this jacket is a 2 Star rider's jacket made by Wind Word, a brand of Montgomery Ward. The original pattern would have been too awkward to wear today, so we created a pattern to accommodate modern styles. This jacket has been a staple at JELADO for many years. The newly developed material is approximately 1.6mm thick horsehide, tanned with a combination (chrome and tannin) process. After chrome tanning, the leather is rinsed out and re-tanned with tannin, bringing out the best in the tannins, creating a moderately rich feel and enhancing the wearability of the leather. The base was dyed light brown, then sprayed black using a hill dyeing process at a long-established finishing factory in Tokyo. This is what is known as brown-core leather. To bring out the black even more, we used a semi-aniline finish, mixing half pigment and half dye. The dye that colors the base and the pigment that forms the coating on top match perfectly, resulting in a beautiful patina with wear. The softness of the leather, which 100% pigment doesn't have, and the thin coating means that the color of the base quickly shows through with wear. This time, to make a simpler rider's jacket, we removed the epaulettes and used black cupra instead of quilted for the lining, making it a leather jacket that can be worn in spring. The lack of quilting means it's not bulky, resulting in a more stylish leather jacket.
