The Lawrence Jacket blends antique oriental textiles with our classic leather jacket pattern to create a new leather garment à la MF®.
We carefully selected candidates of flat-woven Kilim rugs from the first half of the 20th century. Each rug was hand-picked for its attractive geometric motifs, vintage appeal, fine color combination, unique hand-woven imperfections, occasional period hand-repairs and overall natural patina.
Our veg-tan leather is quite light sensitive, and the natural-color hide will soon start ‘tanning’ when exposed to sunlight. Within the same leather grade, there are no two hides alike, resulting in each jacket having its own character, specificity, feel and natural ‘imperfections’.
Expect stains, water marks, natural grease, scratches, patina and creases. All this adds to the character of a leather garment. The jacket’s journey will be yours and each nick a memory.
We do not consider a new jacket with partially-suntanned panels a defective garment. The color will even out as you wear your jacket.
DISCLAIMER: Your LAWRENCE Jacket may feature the authentic ranch “branding iron” (scar) mark typical of livestock raised outdoors. Each hide we select features its own single original ranch branding, more or less visible/well-defined. When both the yield of a hide and the ranch brand position permit it, our factory cutters have been instructed to include the original mark usually on one of the shoulder yoke panels. Not all of our leather jackets feature a branding iron mark, but those that do are much sought-after by our customers for their uniqueness.
This MF® garment is designed and manufactured in California by Mister Freedom®.
