TYPE 1 LEATHER JACKET

TYPE 1 LEATHER JACKET – A CLASSIC, RECRAFTED

Before fashion ever caught on, the Type 1 jacket was already iconic. Introduced in the early 1930s as a utilitarian garment for American workers, its structured boxy fit, single chest pocket, front pleats, and cinch-back detail became the blueprint for generations of outerwear. Built from rigid denim and made to take a beating, it was worn by laborers, cowboys, rebels, and artists anyone who lived life on their own terms.

Fast forward to today, and we’ve taken that same spirit the raw toughness, the purpose-driven design and rebuilt it in a new language: leather.

A NEW CHAPTER IN HIDE

The Type 1 Leather Jacket isn’t just a tribute to the past. It’s a fresh expression of tradition through the lens of craftsmanship. We use hand-selected hides, each chosen for its unique grain, depth, and ability to age beautifully. Every jacket tells its own story before it even touches your shoulders.

From the moment the hide is laid on the cutting table, nothing is rushed. Patterns are cut by hand, panels shaped with precision, and each seam stitched by skilled hands with an obsession for detail. This isn’t mass production it’s a slow process that values feel, form, and finish.

BUILT TO MATURE, NOT TO BREAK

This jacket is made to last and more than that, it’s made to evolve. As the leather breaks in, it softens and molds to your body, darkens with wear, and gains a patina that can’t be faked. Every crease, every mark becomes part of your story. It's not just outerwear it's a long-term companion.

We kept the soul of the original: the boxy shape, the strong collar, the chest pocket, the clean front with subtle pleats. But we reimagined it through refined materials, tighter construction, and modern comfort. Clean on the outside, thoughtful on the inside — with details like a premium lining, reinforced stitching, and solid hardware chosen for durability and style.

THE CRAFT BEHIND THE STYLE

At the core of this release is our belief in true craftsmanship. This means knowing where your materials come from, respecting the process, and keeping human hands in every step. From hide selection to final pressing, nothing is automated or done just for show. It's all function, tradition, and soul.

We don’t chase trends. We build pieces with lasting value jackets that will look better five years from now than the day you first wear them.

FOR THOSE WHO KNOW

The Type 1 Leather Jacket isn’t for everyone and that’s the point. It’s for those who understand the difference between something fast and something crafted. Those who see the beauty in raw materials, aging with grace, and putting wear into their wardrobe the right way.

SPECIAL COLLABORATION

To top it off, the drop features an exclusive collab with illustrator Claudia Clara, where art meets leather in a whole new vibe. This piece presents the dragon as a symbol of life’s duality—two contrasting forces that, together, form a harmonious whole. Through the use of day and night tones, it represents two distinct personalities within a single being: one radiant, full of vitality and hope; the other dark, mysterious, and deeply introspective.

It’s clean, solid, and full of soul. Not for everyone — just the real ones who know the difference between cheap thrills and the real deal.
