Approximately 1.1mm cowhide provides a structured hand, while the blackened surface and exposed warm undertones align naturally with our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/darkravenhide.com\/collections\/mens-distressed-leather-jackets\"\u003eblackened-patina leather jackets\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe asymmetrical YKK fastening, oversized lapels and long waist-adjustment straps establish its heritage motorcycle character.

Highlighted edges make the construction easier to see without using bright piping or artificial contrast tape.
