The Flat Head’s take on the iconic double rider’s jacket is a no-holds-barred entry into classic, repro americana. The asymmetrical, D-pocket design speaks to the jacket’s classic foundations, while the silver-studded epaulettes and semi-aniline finish double down on the brand's cut-no-corners approach to construction. The leather itself hails from Japan’s esteemed Shinki Tannery, considered to be one of the best tanneries in the world. It’s a ridiculously tough and beautiful horsehide that will age and evolve like nothing else.
