Our Material

Lambskin Leather

Lambskin is the softest leather we work with. It has a buttery, supple texture that feels comfortable from the very first wear no stiff break-in period needed. The lightweight grain drapes naturally over the body, making it ideal for slim-fit jackets, blazers, and styles where you want a refined, polished silhouette.

• Texture: Ultra-soft with a smooth, fine grain that moulds to your shape over time.
• Sourcing: Ethically sourced from vetted tanneries as a by-product of the food industry.
• Tanning: Processed with minimal environmental impact using responsible tanning methods.
• Best for: Everyday wear, smart-casual styling, and anyone who prioritises comfort and a sleek finish.

Best for Canadian weather: Lambskin is perfect for Vancouver's mild winters and Toronto's autumn and spring shoulder seasons. Light enough to wear over a t-shirt on crisp fall evenings, and slim enough to layer under a heavy parka on colder days making it one of the most versatile year-round options for Canadian city life.

Not sure if lambskin is right for you? Our lambskin vs cowhide comparison breaks down the key differences in feel, durability, and styling.

Cowhide Leather

Cowhide is the toughest leather in our collection. It's thicker, more structured, and built to handle years of hard wear without losing its shape. Over time, cowhide develops a rich patina a natural ageing process that gives each jacket a unique character no two pieces share.

• Texture: Firm, rugged grain with a substantial weight that softens with wear.
• Sourcing: Responsibly sourced hides processed with eco-friendly methods to reduce chemical runoff.
• Durability: The most hard-wearing option a well-cared-for cowhide jacket can last 20+ years.
• Best for: Motorcycle jackets, biker styles, outdoor wear, and anyone who wants a jacket that ages beautifully with daily use.

Best for Canadian weather: The obvious choice for Canada's harshest climates  Winnipeg, Edmonton, and Regina Prairie winters where temperatures drop to –20°C and below. Thick enough to block bitter wind chill, and tough enough to handle snow, salt, and daily outdoor exposure without breaking down. A well-maintained cowhide jacket is a true Canadian winter investment.

Suede Leather

Suede is made from the inner side of the hide, giving it a velvety, napped finish that looks and feels distinctly different from smooth leather. It has a softer, more textured appearance that adds warmth and depth to any outfit making it a favourite for transitional seasons and layered styling.

• Texture: Velvety, brushed finish with a refined, tactile quality.
• Sourcing: Resource-efficient tanning that reduces water and energy use during processing.
• Versatility: Works across casual, smart-casual, and semi-formal settings with equal ease.
• Best for: Spring and autumn wear, relaxed weekend outfits, and anyone who wants a softer alternative to smooth leather.

Best for Canadian weather: Best suited for Vancouver's mild, dry winters and Ontario's spring and autumn seasons (April to June, September to October). Important: suede is not water-resistant extra care is needed during Montreal's rainy springs and Toronto's slushy winters. Apply a suede protector spray before wearing in wet conditions.
