FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The jacket is inspired by the black leather look Elvis Presley wore in 1968. It is a fan piece, not a copy of a stage-worn item. The color is black, and the leather is sheepskin. Each jacket is hand-stitched to order. That means you can set the size and lining before the leather is cut, instead of picking from stock on a shelf.
Sheepskin is softer and lighter than cowhide. This jacket uses sheepskin that is 0.9 to 1.1 mm thick. It drapes close to the body and feels smooth from the first wear, with little break-in time. Cowhide is firmer and heavier, and it takes longer to soften. If you want a jacket that feels easy to move in right away, sheepskin is a good pick.
For a close-fitting style, it often is. A standard size may fit your chest but not your arms or waist. With Custom Size, you measure yourself and the jacket is cut to your numbers. The guide on how to measure your size shows each point. Measure over a thin shirt, not a sweater, so the numbers stay true.
Hang it on a wide hanger so the shoulders keep their shape. Keep it in a cool, dry closet with some space around it. Avoid direct sun, which can fade black leather over time. Do not fold it for long periods, as folds can leave creases. A cloth garment bag lets the leather breathe. The leather care instructions cover cleaning and conditioning.
