Women Leather Jackets

Women’s leather jackets cut from the same genuine hides as our men’s line — lambskin, cowhide, and goatskin — with patterns drafted for women, not scaled-down men’s cuts.

Biker jackets — asymmetrical zip, fitted through the waist. Bomber jackets — straight cut, ribbed trims, easy to layer. Cafe racers — minimal, stand-up collar, close fit. Cropped jackets — cut shorter, hits at the hip. Shearling and trench styles for cold-weather wear.

Lambskin is soft from the first wear. Cowhide takes two to three weeks to break in and moulds to your shape. Both develop patina with wear.

How to Choose a Women’s Leather Jacket

Which leather weight? Lambskin if you want a jacket that feels broken-in from the first wear — light, soft, minimal stiffness. Cowhide if you want structure and don’t mind two to three weeks of break-in. Goatskin sits between them: tougher than lambskin, more flexible than cowhide.

Fit through the shoulders first. A leather jacket should feel close through your shoulders without pulling. You should be able to zip it fully and move your arms forward without the jacket riding up.

Cropped vs standard length. Cropped jackets hit at the hip — they work best with high-waisted trousers and skirts. Standard-length jackets sit at the hip bone or just below and pair with most outfits.

Colour and wardrobe. Black is the easiest to own — goes with everything and hides scuffs. Brown and tan develop visible patina faster. Burgundy and off-white are statement pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between lambskin and cowhide? Lambskin is lighter, softer, and breaks in almost immediately. Cowhide is heavier and stiffer at first but over weeks of wear it moulds to your body and develops deeper patina.

Can I wear a leather jacket in the rain? Light rain is fine — wipe it dry afterwards. Genuine leather is naturally water-resistant but not waterproof. Don’t wear it in heavy, sustained rain.

How do I clean my jacket? Wipe dirt off with a damp cloth and mild soap. Apply leather conditioner once or twice a year. Store on a wide padded hanger away from direct sunlight and heat. Don’t machine wash.
