Washed Faux Leather Zip Jacket

Washed faux leather gives this piece its lived-in surface: a faint grain under the fingers, a matte sheen rather than a hard shine, and enough softness to move with you instead of standing away from the body.

A full-length zip runs to a high collar, so it closes cleanly against a cold wind or falls open over a fine knit. Spliced panels break up the front and give the shape a little edge, while the short hem lands near the hip and keeps proportions tidy above wide-leg trousers or a midi skirt.

Chestnut leans warm and pairs easily with cream, camel and blue denim. Black reads sharper, especially with a slip dress and boots. Both carry you from early spring into autumn, with room for a hoodie underneath on raw mornings.

Sizing runs small against US and EU charts, so take the larger of two if you sit between sizes.
