FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the made-to-measure workflow for this car leather coat?
Made-to-measure custom sizing is straightforward. Select Custom Size from the product options Size, complete the checkout process. Then submit your body measurements via the measurement form using your order number. Your coat ships in 4–6 weeks from spec confirmation. If you prefer standard sizing, your coat ships in 10–15 working days from order confirmation. Both options are hand-stitched made-to-order — no stock, no rush manufacturing. Our measurement form guides you through every dimension needed for a perfect fit.
What is sheepskin leather and how durable is it for a car coat?
Sheepskin leather is softer and lighter than cowhide, making it ideal for vintage car coats where comfort and drape matter as much as durability. The drum-dyed sheepskin used in this coat is treated to resist weather — waterproof, breathable, and windproof. It develops a natural patina over time, deepening in color and character with every drive. The heavyweight construction (0.8–0.9 mm) ensures the coat resists tearing and maintains its shape season after season. Sheepskin breathes better than thicker leathers, so you stay comfortable in the car or walking around town. With proper care, this coat becomes more beautiful as it ages.
Can I customize the lining or add a sublimated design?
Yes. When you select your size and lining option, you can choose between No Lining, Regular Lining (100% cotton), or Sublimated Lining. If you choose Sublimated Lining, you can upload your own design — a monogram, pattern, or custom artwork — and it will be printed on the lining before your coat is hand-stitched. This is a great way to add a personal touch to a made-to-measure coat. Upload your design file during checkout or via the order instructions. Our team will confirm the design before production begins.
How should I care for the brown sheepskin leather over time?
Drum-dyed sheepskin leather is low-maintenance. Wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth after driving or exposure to moisture. Once or twice a year, condition it with a leather conditioner designed for sheepskin — this keeps it supple and enhances the patina. Avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade the brown color. The coat's waterproof finish means most rain and moisture bead off naturally. As the leather ages, it develops character — the brown deepens and softens, making the coat even more distinctive. Small creases and marks are part of the vintage aesthetic and add authenticity. Store it on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place when not in use.
What sizes are available, and can I get a custom length?
Standard sizes range from XS to XXL for men (EU 42–60 / US 32–50) and XXS to XL for women (EU 38–50 / US 6–18). If standard sizes don't fit your frame perfectly, select Custom Size and submit your measurements via the measurement form. You can customize chest width, shoulder width, sleeve length, and overall coat length — whether you want it knee-length, mid-calf, or a different proportion. Made-to-measure custom orders ship in 4–6 weeks from spec confirmation, so you get a coat tailored to your exact body, not a generic size chart.
