Grease Leather Jacket for Women

A firmer leather than most film jackets

Most women's film jackets in this group use thin sheepskin. This one is black cowhide, about 1.1 to 1.3 mm thick. That makes it firm and structured, and a little stiff on the first few wears before it softens and shapes to you. It will not drape like a lambskin or sheepskin jacket, so choose it if you like a leather that holds its outline.

Choosing the lining

• Regular lining: helps the jacket slide over a tee or thin sweater.
• No lining: lighter on warm nights, though the firm hide feels more direct against clothing.
• Sublimated lining: prints a design you upload. Pick one you would still enjoy away from a themed event.

When this is not the right choice

If you want something fluid and light for layering over a dress, a softer film jacket will suit better. For care, the leather care instructions explain how to look after a thicker hide. Cowhide at this weight also tends to keep its outline when carried or hung, so give it room in a wardrobe instead of packing it tightly.
