Lightweight Vintage Horsehide Single Riders Jacket (PR-64) -

From Standard & Strange

The PR-64 is a riff on the PR-65 model Single Rider Jacket. This version is cut as a cafe racer jacket, with a snap-closure band collar, and TWO zip chest pockets (as opposed to just one), but all the other details are the same as the model with the standard collar. It features zip cuffs, two hand pockets, two chest pockets (already mentioned), and a single inside chest pocket for extra storage. The inside body is lined with an 80% cotton / 20% linen blend fabric, while the sleeves use a soft and sleek 100% nylon twill to keep your arms from getting stuck while layering. It's made from a lightweight version of Y'2's "Vintage Horse" Japanese horsehide, averaging between just 1mm - 1.2mm in thickness on average. This is a specialized tea-core leather, with a base brown dye applied to the hides during the initial tanning and the black coat only being applied to the surface during finishing. Consequently, as the jacket ages, the brown core will slowly peek through the black surface of the leather — scuffs and scratches will also highlight the brown sublayer. The leather is also finished with a high gloss that will wear down over time in tandem with the dye, giving the jacket an incredibly dynamic patina. It's lined with a cotton/nylon blend twill in a warm olive green finish, perfectly soft and smooth for easy layering. Fits true to size. Do not wash or dry.
