2020 New Styles Western Leather Jacket

2020 New Styles Western Leather Jacket

The 2020 New Styles Western Leather Jacket is a western jacket with the volume turned down. It keeps the elements that make the style recognisable — the pointed yoke, the snap front, the shaped pockets — but drops the heavy fringe and the exaggerated shoulder, so it works as a normal leather jacket that happens to have western lines.

• Material: Real leather, smooth finish
• Fit: Modern regular fit
• Closure: Snap button front
• Color: Classic brown
• Care: Wipe clean, condition twice a year, hang rather than fold

What a modern western cut changes

Traditional western jackets were drafted for men who worked outdoors in layers, so they carry width through the chest and a long body. Worn today with a tee and jeans that reads as oversized. This pattern brings the shoulder in to sit where the shoulder actually is, shortens the body to the hip, and slims the sleeve, while keeping the yoke and pocket shapes that identify the style.

The other change is the fringe — or the absence of it. Fringe is the detail that makes a western jacket a costume for a lot of people. Without it, the yoke line alone gives the reference, which is enough for most wardrobes.

Leather and construction

Smooth real leather, which suits this cleaner cut better than suede would — it holds a crisper line at the yoke seam and the pocket edges. Over time it will crease at the elbows and soften across the shoulders, developing the character that only real hide does.

Snap fastenings are used rather than a zip, which is correct for the style and also practical: snaps open one-handed and sit flat under a seatbelt. The yoke is a genuine seamed panel, not a stitched-on decoration.

Fit, comfort and styling

Take your normal size for wear over a shirt or fine knit. The hem finishes at the hip and the sleeve at the wrist bone. It is a regular fit, not slim, so it is comfortable to sit and drive in.

Because it is understated, it goes with far more than a traditional western jacket does. Jeans and boots obviously, but also chinos and trainers, or over a plain shirt for dinner. The yoke gives the outfit a reference point without dictating it.

How does it fit?

Modern regular fit — shoulder in the right place, body to the hip. Take your normal size.

Can I wear it in normal, non-western outfits?

Why snaps rather than a zip?

Snaps are correct for the style, open one-handed and lie flat under a seatbelt.
