Men's Custom Size Genuine Lamb Leather Shirt

Men's Custom Size Genuine Lamb Leather Shirt

This men's lamb leather shirt is made to your measurements rather than to a size chart, which matters more on a shirt than on almost anything else. A leather shirt has a collar, a placket, cuffs and a yoke, and all four have to sit correctly or the whole thing looks like a jacket pretending to be a shirt. Cut in genuine lambskin, it is soft enough to fold and drape the way a shirt should.

• Material: Genuine soft lamb leather
• Fit: Regular shirt fit, made to your measurements
• Closure: Button front with buttoned cuffs
• Color: Black
• Care: Dry cloth only, hang do not fold, condition twice a year

Why lambskin for a shirt

Shirt patterns have small pieces and tight curves — a collar stand, a cuff, a placket. Heavy cowhide will not turn those cleanly; it stands rather than folds, and the collar ends up looking like a costume piece. Lambskin is thin and flexible enough to behave like cloth, which is why every good leather shirt is made from it.

It is also far lighter to wear. A lambskin shirt weighs a fraction of a leather jacket, so you can wear it as a layer indoors without cooking.

Custom sizing

Standard sizes are available, but the reason to buy this shirt is the custom option. Send your chest, waist, neck, sleeve length and back length after checkout and the shirt is cut to those figures at no extra charge. On a leather shirt that is worth doing: leather has no ease, so a shirt that is 2cm out in the chest feels 2cm out, where a cotton shirt would simply give.

Construction

A two-piece collar with a stand, so it rolls rather than lying flat. A reinforced placket behind the buttonholes — buttonholes are the first thing to fail on a badly made leather shirt, so they are cut and finished rather than punched. Buttoned cuffs, a separate shoulder yoke, and flat-pressed seams so nothing shows as a ridge under a jacket.

Fit and styling

Regular shirt fit. Take your normal shirt size for standard sizing, or better, use Custom. Wear it buttoned with trousers for a sharp look, or open over a plain tee with jeans. Black keeps it versatile in either direction.

It layers under a jacket without bulk — try it under something from our Men Leather Jackets. For other cuts and colours, browse our Men Leather Shirts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this genuine leather?

Yes, genuine lambskin, chosen soft so the collar and cuffs fold correctly.

What measurements do you need for a custom size?

Chest, waist, neck, sleeve length and back length. Send them after checkout at no extra charge.

Can I tuck it in?

Yes, it is cut as a shirt with a shirt hem.

Is it hot to wear?

Leather does not breathe like cotton, so it is warmer than a fabric shirt. Most owners wear it as an outer layer in cooler months.

Will the buttonholes stretch?

The placket is reinforced behind them, which prevents it. That reinforcement is what cheap leather shirts leave out.

How long until it arrives?

It is made to order. Allow around two weeks including free shipping; tracking is emailed on dispatch.

How do I care for it?

Dry cloth only, hang on a wide hanger rather than folding, and condition twice a year. Never machine wash or dry clean.
