Heavy cowhide vest in deep oxblood. Snap front, reinforced back panel. The middle layer your rides have been missing. Crafted in Cowhide.

Specifications

  • 1.2mm Pakistani cowhide
  • Oxblood (drum-dyed through)
  • Antique brass snaps
  • Two chest pockets
  • Internal cotton lining

Some days the jacket is too much. The Vest is what we wear on those days — heavy enough to feel like protection, light enough to layer over a long-sleeve. The oxblood dye is hand-mixed and left in the drum for forty hours; the colour goes all the way through. It will outlast every other vest you own.

  • — Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear.
  • — Condition every 3–6 months with a neutral leather balm.
  • — Store on a wide hanger, away from direct sunlight and humidity.
  • — Avoid prolonged contact with rain; blot — never rub — if wet.
  • — Professional leather cleaning only.

Complimentary worldwide shipping on every order. Express delivery within 3–5 business days, fully tracked and insured.

The Story

A piece chosen
to outlast trends.

Some days the jacket is too much. The Vest is what we wear on those days — heavy enough to feel like protection, light enough to layer over a long-sleeve. The oxblood dye is hand-mixed and left in the drum for forty hours; the colour goes all the way through. It will outlast every other vest you own.

  • Hand-finished in Sialkot

    Edges, hardware and lining set by one artisan, by name.

  • Full-grain, traceable hides

    From two heritage tanneries we have visited for years.

  • Lifetime promise

    Repaired, reconditioned and restored — for as long as you wear it.

In Detail

The marks of the hand.

The Hide

Full-grain, unaltered.

We work only with the top layer of the hide — the part that carries the natural grain, the small scars, the irregularities that announce a piece is real.

The Stitch

Saddle-stitched, by hand.

Two needles, one thread, drawn through every hole the artisan has pierced. It is slow, and it does not unravel — even if a stitch is cut.
