Women's Slim Fit Lamb Leather Pants
These are cut from top grain lambskin, which is the specification worth paying attention to. Top grain means the outer surface of the hide is intact rather than sanded away and replaced with a coating, so the natural grain is what you see and feel. On a slim trouser, where the leather sits close and catches light along the leg, that difference is visible.

Top grain, and why it matters
Cheaper leather is often corrected: the surface is sanded flat to remove marks, then sprayed with a pigment layer to make it uniform. It looks perfect on day one and then wears by having that coating rub off, which is why cheap leather trousers go shiny and patchy at the knee.
Top grain keeps the natural surface. Small variations in grain across panels are normal and are the evidence you are looking at real, uncorrected hide. It also means the leather breathes and softens with wear rather than degrading, and it develops a slight sheen at the wear points instead of losing its finish.
Lambskin in a slim cut
Lambskin is thin, light and flexible, which is what makes a genuinely slim leather trouser wearable. There is no break-in period; the leather bends at the knee from the first hour and sits against the leg rather than standing away from it.
Because the hide flexes on its own, this pattern needs no extra knee panels — the leg line stays clean with minimal seaming, which suits a close cut.
Construction
Faced waistband with a zip fly and reinforced belt loops. Pocket bags stitched flat so nothing prints through the thin hide. Seams stitched with fine thread matched to the weight of the leather, since heavy stitching puckers lambskin. Narrow ankles, no zip, pull on.
Fit and styling
Slim fit. Take your normal size — lambskin has a little give, so most people do not need to size up, though up is safer than down between sizes. Custom is free and worth taking on a close cut: send waist, hip, thigh and inside leg.
Wear them with volume on top — oversized knit, loose shirt, boxy jacket — and boots or heels rather than a bulky trainer. They also layer under a long coat without bulk. Pair with a shirt from our Women Leather Shirts or a jacket from our Women Leather Jackets. Other cuts are in our Women Leather Pants.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does top grain mean?
The outer surface of the hide is intact rather than sanded off and replaced with a pigment coating. It breathes, softens with wear and does not go patchy at the knee.
Are grain variations a fault?
No. Small variations across panels are normal on uncorrected hide and are how you tell top grain from coated leather.
How is this different from your other slim lambskin trousers?
Same close cut; this pair is specified as top grain lambskin, so the natural hide surface is intact rather than corrected.
Do they need breaking in?
No. Lambskin is soft and flexible from the first wear.
What size should I order?
Your normal size, going up rather than down if you are between. Custom sizing is free and worth taking on a slim cut.
Will they bag at the knee?
They relax slightly with wear and recover when hung. Hang them by the waistband rather than folding.
How do I care for them?
Dry cloth only. Never soak, machine wash or dry clean. Condition twice a year with a neutral conditioner.
