1950s was when leather jackets, inspired by military flight jackets, were popular.

Based on the heavy vintage leather jacket featuring sheepskin liners for cold weather, the jacket retains a heavy feel while being reduced in weight. All classical but practical details omitted in today's designs are faithfully reproduced, including flaps with hidden dot-button, hand-warmer pockets, reinforced leather parts on the sleeve cuffs, and a U-shaped stopper zipper characteristic of the 1950s. The item uses vegetable-tanned leather made from horsehide, using a tanning technique called pit-tanning. In the method, hides are soaked for a long time in a pit filled with vegetable resin tannin. As it requires a lot of time and effort _ the soaking phase takes about a month _ only a few companies practice this method in Japan.
