Yoyo faux leather shirt

Yoyo faux leather shirt

The Yoyo faux leather shirt is made from PU-coated fabric rather than animal hide — stated up front so there is no confusion. It is cut with a soft, fluid drape and a plain button front, and sits alongside the genuine hide pieces in our women leather shirts range as the lighter, animal-free alternative.

• Material: Faux leather (PU-coated fabric), no animal material
• Fit: Soft, fluid women's fit
• Closure: Plain button front
• Color: Black
• Care: Damp wipe, air dry, no ironing or tumble drying

Drape: where faux leather actually wins

Real hide has weight, and weight is what makes leather hang the way it does. Faux leather is lighter, and on a fluid shirt like this one that is an advantage — it moves more like fabric, gathers softly at the cuffs, and does not pull at the shoulders when worn for a long day. If you have tried a real leather shirt and found it too substantial, this is the one to try instead.

Being clear about the trade-offs

Faux leather does not age like hide. It will not develop a patina, will not soften over the years, and the coating can eventually crack at high-fold points. It also breathes less than natural leather, which is noticeable in warm rooms. In return it is cheaper, entirely animal-free, and needs no specialist cleaning. Neither material is better in the abstract — they suit different buyers.

Care that actually extends its life

Heat is what kills PU coatings. No tumble dryer, no iron, no drying on a radiator. Wipe marks away with a damp cloth and let it air dry naturally. Hang rather than fold, because a sharp crease can crack the coating over time. Done properly, a faux leather shirt gives several good seasons.

Sizing and made to order

Take your normal size for the intended soft fit, or one up for a looser look. Sizes run XS to 5XL, with Custom available — send bust, shoulder, sleeve, and length. Each piece is made after your order comes in.
