Latest Leather Finishes

Everyone wants to look the part but don’t be fooled into thinking you have to break the bank and buy overpriced high street brands in order to get the look you desire.
There are plenty of alternatives, more than likely manufactured in the same place to the same quality, just paying for a label which sits on the inside.

The key fashion finishes are as follows and can all be found within our biker and bomber ranges too, as well as some of the slim fit blazers:


  • Tumbled waxed – this produces a lovely soft finish as well as greater colour definition with darker colouring concentrated at the seams for a subtle antiqued colour patina. Waxed finishes will gain an increased “aged look” the more they are worn.


  • Washed – this delivers a creased come crinkled finished and is great as you can scrunch up your jacket in your bag when you are not wearing it without any worries.
 


  • Hand burnished – accentuates the vintage appeal of the leather which gives it a worn-in appearance. The colour is applied by hand to give a unique varied colour definition where the colour is more concentrated and darker around panel areas as well as across many of the seams.



  • Heavily oiled – leather is soaked in special oils to create another version of an aged patina and vintage colour that has soft tone variation throughout in a silky soft finish as the leather has been well nourished in the processed.
