The Edward is inspired by the British Riders’ Jackets of the ‘50s but ups the ante with a heavyweight and vegetable-tanned Shinki horsehide leather. The tanning process used on this equine hide ensures a unique ageing process. With a little time, the leather’s darker surface pigments will chip and fade in the high-wear areas to reveal the true browns at its core. Multi-tension constructional stitching means that the leather will also pucker and crease over time for added character. Natural zip taping adds a nice pop of contrast to the rich blacks and eventual browns of the leather. Finished with nickel hardware throughout – including two chest zip pockets, two hip zip pockets, and buckled side cinches. A red quilted cupro rayon lining offers a further flash of colour.
