Love it…. fantastic fit and material. .

— Allen G. (5/5)

Worth it

"The quality is top tier. Beautiful grade of leather and color saturation. The silhouette is sophisticated and mature yet can be styled with sweats too. I could have gone with the XS for better sleeve length, but the small will be a better fit for layering. Stunning jacket. Can’t wait to wear it. For reference I’m 5’1”, 126lbs."

— MARLENA P. (5/5)
