Women's Skinny Lambskin Leather Pants
These skinny leather pants are made from lambskin rather than cowhide, and that single decision changes everything about how they wear. Lambskin is thinner, lighter and far more flexible, so a close-fitting trouser in it is comfortable straight away instead of needing weeks to give. There is no break-in period and no stiffness at the knee. If you have owned skinny leather trousers that felt like armour, this is the material difference.

Lambskin against cowhide
Cowhide is the standard for leather trousers because it is tough. Lambskin trades some of that toughness for weight and flexibility. In practical terms a lambskin trouser weighs noticeably less, bends at the knee immediately, and sits flat against the leg rather than standing away from it.
The honest trade-off is durability. Lambskin marks more easily than cowhide and is not what you would choose for hard wear or riding. It is for wearing well, not for wearing out. For a tougher hide in similar cuts, browse our Women Leather Pants.
The skinny cut
The leg is narrow from hip to ankle. Because lambskin is flexible, this pattern does not need the extra knee panels a cowhide skinny trouser requires — the material itself does the bending. That gives a cleaner leg line with fewer visible seams.
The waistband is faced with a zip fly and belt loops. Ankles are cut narrow with no zip, so they pull on. Pocket bags are stitched flat so they do not print through the thin hide.
Fit and styling
The fit is genuinely skinny. Take your normal size. Lambskin has a little natural give, so unlike cowhide trousers most people do not need to size up — but if you are between sizes, up is still safer than down. If you have a high instep, mention it on a Custom order and we will widen the ankle.
Skinny leather balances best with volume on top: an oversized knit, a loose shirt, a boxy jacket. Ankle boots or heels finish the line. Because these are light and thin, they also layer under a long coat without bulk. Try them with a top from our Women Leather Shirts.
Made to order sizing
Each pair is cut after you order, in your chosen size. Standard sizes are XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL and 5XL, plus Custom. Skinny trousers benefit most from custom measurements — send waist, hip, thigh and inside leg after checkout and we build to those figures at no extra charge. Free worldwide shipping and secure checkout are included.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this real lambskin?
Yes. Real lambskin leather, not faux or coated fabric.
How is lambskin different from cowhide here?
It is thinner, lighter and more flexible, so the trousers are comfortable from the first wear. They are also less abrasion resistant than cowhide.
Do they need breaking in?
No. Lambskin is soft immediately.
Will they bag at the knee?
Soft leather relaxes slightly at the knee with wear and recovers when hung. Hang them by the waistband between wears.
What size should I order?
Your normal size. If you are between sizes, go up. Custom sizing is available and worth taking on a skinny cut.
How long until they arrive?
They are made to order. Allow around two weeks including free shipping; tracking is emailed on dispatch.
How do I clean them?
Dry cloth only. Never soak, machine wash or dry clean. Condition twice a year and hang by the waistband.
