Japanese Horsehide Modified Type III Jacket - Black (Tea-Core Dyed)

£1,393.00

IHJ-64-BLK
Size: Please select size

Our modified version of the classic Type III trucker jacket—featuring a slightly longer-than-traditional body and the addition of handwarmer pockets—cut from thick, tea-core dyed Japanese horsehide. This leather is chrome-tanned in a tiny tannery in Himeji—a region known as the tanning capital of Japan—and, in our opinion, is some of the nicest horsehide we've ever seen. Fitted with an olive twill lining, copper tack buttons, and internal "gun" pockets, the jacket’s leather will soften over time, developing a beautiful patina as the black dye wears to expose the brown core beneath.
