Ladies Tan Real 100% Lamb Nappa Leather Biker Jacket
The Ladies Tan Real 100% Lamb Nappa Leather Biker Jacket is the soft version of a biker jacket. Lamb nappa is the lightest and most flexible leather we work with — it drapes rather than stands, so the jacket follows your shape from the first wear instead of needing months to break in. In tan it reads warm and casual rather than tough, which makes it one of the easiest women's leather jackets to wear day to day. If a cowhide biker has ever felt too heavy or too stiff on you, this is the answer.

What lamb nappa actually feels like
Nappa is a tanning finish, not a different animal — it is lambskin tanned to stay soft and smooth rather than firm. Pick the jacket up and it weighs noticeably less than a cowhide of the same size. Put it on and there is no break-in period; the leather bends at the elbow immediately and the collar folds where you fold it. The surface has a slight sheen and a fine grain you can feel with a fingertip.
The trade-off is honest to state: lambskin is softer, so it marks more easily than cowhide and it is not the hide you would choose for hard outdoor use. It is a jacket for wearing, not for abrasion. Buyers who want something tougher should look at cowhide options in our Women Leather Jackets range.
Cut and detailing
The pattern is a standard asymmetric biker: zip running diagonally, lapels that fold back and sit flat because the leather is soft enough to do so properly, zipped chest and hip pockets, and zip cuffs. Because the hide is light, the seams are stitched tighter and the panels are cut smaller than they would be on a heavy jacket — that is what keeps a soft leather from looking baggy at the shoulders.
Hardware is antique-finish metal rather than bright chrome, which suits tan better. The lining is a smooth viscose blend that slides over knitwear without dragging, and there is an inside pocket at the chest.
Fit and styling
The fit is slim and sits close to the body. Take your normal size for a shirt or fine knit underneath. Because the leather has give, most people do not need to size up, but if you plan to wear a chunky jumper under it, one size up is the safer call. The body ends at the hip and the sleeves are cut to finish at the wrist bone.
Tan nappa is a wardrobe workhorse. It goes with blue denim, white shirts, cream knits and navy without a second thought. Because the leather is soft it also layers well — you can wear it under a longer coat in winter, which is not something you can do with a stiff jacket. Pair it with our Leather Trench Coats in cold weather or wear it alone from spring through autumn.
Made to order sizing
Nothing here is pre-made. Once you order, the jacket is cut and stitched in the size you selected. Standard sizes are XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL and 5XL, plus a Custom option.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between nappa and normal leather?
Nappa is a soft tanning finish. This jacket is real lambskin tanned as nappa, so it is lighter and more flexible than a cowhide jacket of the same size.
Is lambskin durable enough for everyday wear?
Yes for normal daily use. It is softer than cowhide, so it scuffs more easily and is not intended for hard outdoor or riding use.
Does it need breaking in?
No. Lamb nappa is soft from the first wear.
What size should I choose?
Your normal size over a shirt or fine knit. Go up one size if you will wear a thick jumper underneath, or pick Custom and send your measurements.
Is the tan colour the same as the photos?
It is very close. Natural hide takes dye slightly differently panel to panel, so small variation in depth is normal and is a sign the leather is real.
How long does delivery take?
The jacket is made after you order. Allow roughly two weeks including free shipping; tracking is emailed on dispatch.
How do I clean it?
Wipe with a dry cloth. Do not soak, machine wash or dry clean. Use a light leather conditioner twice a year and store on a wide hanger.
