Men cowhide jacket

Made from a waxed cowhide, Hack crafts this pithy half-length leather jacket whose shape is inspired by a historic Navy deck jacket. The leather has a vibrant look. It is rather cloudy in color and quickly takes on signs of use of all kinds, in short: it quickly acquires a beautiful patina. The sleeves are equipped with generously cut leather trimmings, a checkered torso lining made of wool warms the wearer of the jacket. The side pockets are neatly piped, inside a zipper pocket is inserted into a leather cover. The jacket is closed with a metal zipper by Riri, over which is a wide wind-resistant buttoned trim.

Behind Hack Lederware you find Christoph Hack, founder and fine bag maker with a studio in Cologne. For decades he has been working with a wide variety of leathers. Based on this experience, he designs his garments. For example, Hack exclusively processes leather with natural surfaces from Germany, Italy and Scandinavia into hard-wearing, functional clothing and genuine accessories. This is why the selected skins from cow, horse and deer document traces of animal life such as insect bites or thorny cracks. Such a leather gains its much-desired patina by movement and frequent wearing and proves a magnificent example of what happens when a leather garment is allowed to age with honour. It is this natural ageing process that gives Hack jackets their unique look. They are made up at the Hack headquarters in Cologne and a Polish partner company.
