Japanese Horsehide Modified Type III Jacket Black

The modified version of the classic Type III trucker jacket featuring a slightly longer than traditional body and the addition of handwarmer pockets cut from thick, tea core dyed Japanese horsehide. This leather is chrome tanned in a tiny tannery in Himeji a region known as the tanning capital of Japan and in our opinion, is some of the nicest horsehide we've ever seen. 

Horsehide
Horsehide is a dense, durable leather known for its toughness, wind resistance, and ability to break in over time without losing structural integrity. Compared to cowhide, it has a tighter grain and firmer feel, making it well-suited to outerwear like motorcycle and workwear jackets
