Why lambskin for a skirt
Cowhide is stiff enough to hold a shape of its own. On a jacket that is an advantage — the shoulders and collar stay structured. On a skirt it is a problem: a stiff hide stands away from the body, creases into hard folds when you sit, and never quite falls back. Lambskin is a fraction of the thickness. It drapes over the hip, follows the line of the leg, and settles back after sitting instead of holding a crease. Almost every leather skirt worth owning is made in lambskin for exactly this reason.
The trade-off
Lambskin marks and scuffs more easily than cowhide. It is not the hide for a garment that takes knocks. On a skirt that rarely matters — skirts do not see the abrasion a jacket sleeve does — but it is worth knowing that this is a garment to look after rather than to treat roughly.
Long and slim: the practical points
A long slim skirt needs a vent or split to allow a normal stride, since leather gives nothing. Check that it has one — without it the skirt either restricts you or the back seam eventually takes the strain. The lining matters just as much: unlined leather sticks to skin and tights and rides up, and no amount of adjusting fixes it.
Care and storage
Dry cloth only. Never machine wash; use a leather specialist rather than an ordinary dry cleaner. Hang the skirt by its waistband loops — a long skirt folded over a hanger bar sets a crease across the front that will not come out of soft lambskin.
Sizing and made to order
Order by waist measurement and send hip and the length you want with the Custom option — on a long skirt, length depends on your height and is the measurement most worth specifying. Sizes run XS to 5XL plus Custom.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the skirt made in lambskin?
It is light enough to drape over the body and settle back after sitting, where a stiff cowhide would stand away and hold creases.
Is lambskin durable?
Less abrasion-resistant than cowhide, so it is a garment to look after — though skirts see far less abrasion than jackets.
Is it lined?
Yes. Unlined leather sticks to skin and tights and rides up as you walk.
Can I walk normally in a long slim skirt?
Yes — a vent releases the stride, which a leather skirt of this length needs.
How should I store it?
Hanging by the waistband loops. Folding sets a permanent crease in soft lambskin.
Do you offer custom sizing?
Yes. Choose Custom and send waist, hip, and length.
Is shipping free?
Yes, free worldwide shipping and secure checkout.
