The history of leather

About 200,000 years ago, our ancestors made leather from animal hides. With this leather, our ancestors could protect themselves in any weather, which made the settlement of the different climate zones of our Earth possible. This shared history and the countless advantages of leather have led to the leather jacket enjoying a unique status to this day. Even in 2024/25, the icon of garments is fully back in trend.

Leather: incredibly versatile

The appearance and characteristics of leather are extremely diverse and depend on several factors. The most important factor is the origin of the leather (lamb, goat, or cattle). The second most important factor is the respective processing. The processing determines what type of leather it is, such as velour, nappa, and smooth leather, as well as the color.

In any case, flexibility, durability, resistance to dirt, and breathability are top priorities. A leather jacket is thus a loyal companion for many years and always in trend. Additionally, it can be worn all year round. Of course, lambskin leather jackets are an exception, as they are definitely better suited for winter.

The biker jacket

Like the pilots, bikers in the early 1920s also relied on wearing jackets. The biker jacket in blouson form was developed and still enjoys great popularity. It not only offers protection against wind and rain but also provides enormous freedom of movement. The leather also offers protection in case of accidents, fulfilling the increased safety needs of motorcyclists. Modern jackets in biker style are still padded in the crucial areas today.
