The L4 - Lamb Antique Brown

Leather jackets are investments. They should last a lifetime. They should get better over the years. Hitting this mark means starting with a style that's truly enduring. The car coat is one of these styles. It was designed as a functional garment for motoring, when exposure to the elements was still a big part of travel. We take these roots and update them for today. The fit is tailored through the body without being extreme. Length has been adjusted to target a versatile sweetspot, hitting just below the hip. We labored over sleeve sizing to ensure movement, while keeping a truly fitted look. Details are distinct to the style and made clean. From a perfectly sized point collar, to button front placket, to the intricately constructed and functional half-belt back, we tried to capture the beautiful elements of the style without adding clutter. Welt pockets for the hands sit below two side entry chest pockets. Each is treated to careful arrow stitch details. There is an interior pocket for hidden storage. Barrel cuffs with button closure complete the sleeves. The body and arms are lined with a jet black herringbone cloth. This is our most labor intensive jacket to date. All these details set the stage for new leather.

For those seeking the ultimate level of comfort with a unique vintage look, this is your leather. This lamb skin has a fabric-like softness and relatively light weight which makes the L4 drape perfectly. This version is superbly wearable and comfortable. The grain on this skin is tight and smooth, which is an ideal canvas for one of the most unique finishes we've seen. An ashy brown base gets treated to a weathering process that creates beautiful and organic color variation. The brown begins to drift to deeper shades approaching black. Each jacket is unique.

Leather jackets like ours that are made in the USA using our quality of material and construction are typically priced at $1000 or higher. The efficiency of the Gustin model, with your support, lets us do much better.
