The Flat Head’s “HW004” is a no-holds-barred entry into classic Double Rider’s territory. It features an asymmetric zip design, a D-pocket with an overlaying coin stash, and studded epaulets, all accented with beautiful, mixed metal hardware.

The “HW004” is made from a new 1.3mm horsehide, treated from start to finish at Japan’s fabled Shinki Hikaku Tannery. It’s a teacore leather; an expert layering of rich black dyes atop a tobacco brown core. The black top coat will fleck and chip with wear, emulating the grain, nuance, and earthy patina of a well-loved vintage jacket.
