Benefits
A leather vest from Leather Collection works because hand-stitching locks seams tight, and genuine leather develops richer texture with wear. Made-to-measure sizing means no excess fabric at the shoulders or waist, giving you motion and comfort that off-the-rack vests cannot match. You choose leather grade, lining, and finish options to match your body and style needs. Clean with a damp cloth and condition yearly to maintain suppleness.

Buying Guidance
How do I ensure the right fit? Measure your chest, waist, and shoulder width, then consult our Size Guide. Made-to-measure options let you adjust every dimension for a tailored look. What leather should I choose? Genuine leather develops character over time and resists creasing better than lower grades. Can I customize colors or branding? Yes — Made to Measure includes custom dyes, linings, and embossed logos. Condition your vest yearly to keep leather supple and prevent cracking.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I measure for a custom leather vest?
Measure your chest at the fullest point, your waist at the natural narrowing, and your shoulder width from bone to bone across the back. Standard sizing uses these three measurements to fit most body types; made-to-measure adjusts sleeve length, torso depth, and waist tapering for exact fit. Consult our Size Guide to map your measurements to our fit chart. We recommend measuring while standing relaxed in light clothing, not while wearing a thick jacket or sweater. Made-to-measure orders confirm your fit during the spec stage before stitching begins.
What is the difference between a biker vest and a dress vest?
A biker vest is cut with deeper armholes and a straighter silhouette for movement during riding, and features rugged hardware like buckles and D-rings. A dress vest tapers at the sides, uses refined hardware, and pairs with dress shirts and blazers for formal or smart-casual occasions. Biker vests prioritize durability with reinforced stitching at stress points; dress vests emphasize clean lines and smooth linings. Both are hand-stitched in genuine leather, but their construction and proportions reflect different wear scenarios. Made to Measure lets you adjust either style to fit your frame precisely.
How long does a custom leather vest take to arrive?
Standard sizing ships in 10 to 15 working days from order confirmation. Made-to-measure vests ship in 4 to 6 weeks from spec confirmation, once your measurements are locked in. The made-to-measure timeline allows our craftspeople to adjust every seam and panel to your exact dimensions. All vests are hand-stitched and conditioned before shipment, so they arrive ready to wear. Orders ship to 50+ countries with tracked delivery. For current shipping timelines and tracking details, consult Shipping & Delivery.
Can I customize the color and branding on a vest?
Yes. Made to Measure includes full customization: choose your leather color from our dye range, select lining colors, and add embossed logos or monograms. Custom hardware finishes (silver, gold, bronze) are also available. Each custom option is applied during hand-stitching, so your vest reflects your personal style from the start. Standard sizing also accepts basic color selection, though made-to-measure opens the full menu of hardware and branding options. Contact our Help Center with your design idea to discuss feasibility and lead time.
How do I care for a genuine leather vest?
Clean your vest with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and light stains. Condition the leather every 6 to 12 months with a neutral or matching-color leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent cracking. Hang your vest on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Genuine leather naturally develops patina and character with regular wear and care, so avoid over-treating. For deep stains or extensive wear, consult our Help Center. Proper conditioning extends the usable life of your vest and keeps the hand-stitched seams strong through years of wear.
