The Stand Collar is a slick, stripped-back entry into The Flat Head’s already impressive selection of Rider’s Jackets. It has a cross zip design with a classic café racer style collar. The 1.3mm, veg-tanned horsehide leather is soft, supple, and will break in lightning fast to develop a fit and drape unique to the wearer.
The leather has been tanned at Italy’s legendary Maryam Tannery before being cut, sewn, and oiled in Japan by The Flat Head themselves. It showcases a rich variance of dusty black hues that will lighten to a vintage brown with wear. As is to be expected from The Flat Head’s fabled sewing expertise, the cognac brown stitching is top-notch in its intricacy and provides a beautiful point of contrast to the jacket’s darker leather and brass hardware.
Compared to their Single and Double Rider’s options, this jacket incorporates a slightly narrower shoulder for a less tailored, more sporting fit that still retains a beautifully slim silhouette.
Elliot wears a size 40 jacket in these images. He could equally wear size 42 for a slightly more roomy fit with more room to layer. He is 185cm tall and weighs 74kg / 6ft 1" and 163 lbs.
