Men's Black Vintage Biker Style Waxed Sheep Skin Fashion Jacket
The Men's Black Vintage Biker Style Waxed Sheep Skin Fashion Jacket uses a wax finish over black sheep leather, which is what gives it that slightly uneven, worn-in surface instead of flat gloss. The shape is biker, the weight is light because it is sheep rather than cow, and the vintage tone means small scuffs disappear into the finish rather than standing out. It is a moto jacket you can wear every day without babying it.
Material: Sheep leather with a hand-applied wax finish
Fit: Slim biker fit, short at the waist
Closure: Asymmetric front zip with snap collar
Color: Vintage black with tonal wax variation
Care: Dry wipe, never soak, re-wax or condition once a year
The Waxed Finish
Wax is worked into the leather by hand after dyeing, then buffed back. The high points lift slightly lighter while the creases hold the darker tone, so the jacket has movement in the colour rather than reading as solid black. Wax also adds a small amount of water resistance, which is useful for a jacket that gets worn in unpredictable weather.
Sheep Leather Versus Cowhide
Sheep leather is lighter and softer, so the jacket sits closer to the body and needs almost no break-in. It will not be as abrasion resistant as heavy cowhide, which is the honest trade for comfort. For everyday wear and light riding it is the more comfortable choice.
Fit and Wear
The cut is slim and short, ending at the waist rather than the hip, which is standard for a biker silhouette. Order your normal size if you like a close fit, one up if you plan to layer. Sleeves are cut with a slight bend so they sit right when your arms are down. Black works with everything, and the wax stops it looking too formal.
Custom Sizing Available Free
Standard sizes cover XS to 5XL. Choose Custom at no extra cost and send chest, waist, sleeve length and height. Every jacket is made after the order, so the wax finish is applied fresh rather than sitting in storage.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the wax finish do?
It gives the leather tonal depth instead of flat black, and adds light water resistance. It is applied by hand, so small variations between jackets are normal.
Is sheep leather durable?
It is durable for everyday wear and lighter than cowhide, but it is not as abrasion resistant as heavy cowhide for hard riding.
How does it fit?
Slim and short at the waist. Order your usual size for a close biker fit or one up for layering.
Will the wax come off on my clothes?
No. The wax is buffed into the leather and set, so it does not transfer under normal wear.
Is it made to order?
Yes, each jacket is cut, stitched and finished after your order.
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes, free worldwide shipping with a secure checkout.
How do I maintain the finish?
Wipe with a dry cloth and apply a leather wax or conditioner once a year to keep the surface even.
