Do you have any "spring leather" pieces in your closet? When we think of men's leather, we often imagine something tough and heavy, but the current trend is for something light, supple, and smart. A perfect example of this is a high-quality, thin, and lightweight leather outer garment. While retaining the luxurious feel unique to leather, the combination of skilled craftsmanship and high-tech techniques gives it a soft feel and exceptional texture. Here are five pieces we recommend this spring to elevate your adult style.

1. ALFREDO RIFUGIO

ALFREDO RIFUGIO Leather Jacket ¥388,880 ■ Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building 5th Floor = Business Clothing

A valuable garment that embodies the essence of Neapolitan tailoring.

ALFREDO RIFUGIO is a rare, handmade tailor specializing in leather goods, applying Neapolitan sartorial techniques to leather products. They employ extensive handwork, with every part hand-cut by skilled craftsmen. Unlike fabric, leather cannot be ironed to remove creases, making it difficult to create three-dimensional garments; one wrong stitch can create a hole in the leather. However, even their ready-made garments combine the supple softness unique to leather with the body-hugging Neapolitan tailoring. These are truly garments worth wearing.

2. JIL SANDER

JIL SANDER leather blouson ¥885,600 ■ Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building 3rd floor = International Designers

Pay attention to the shiny texture of "paper leather".

Based on traditional tailoring and uniforms, Jil Sander blends modern and practical forms. The boxy silhouette, with its generously sized, three-dimensional form and pattern construction that utilizes the characteristics of the fabric, leads to a unique silhouette. From the latest collection, we've chosen a leather (cowhide) blouson made from "paper-thin leather," which has been stripped to the extreme. The technique used to achieve both overwhelming lightness and a shiny texture embodies the designer's cherished hybrid of "elegant materials x attention to detail."

3. VALSTAR

VALSTAR Leather Blouson ¥140,400 ■ Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building 5th Floor = Business Clothing

Timeless designs that you can cherish for a lifetime shine even brighter across time.

This masterpiece model bearing Valstar name features high-quality goat suede and wool in the ribbing. The goat suede has short fibers and a moist, pleasant feel as if it's hydrated. The beautiful silhouette with a ribbed stand collar instantly elevates the overall look, and the large buttons, tightly woven ribbing at the hem and cuffs, and distinctive flap button pockets are design elements that symbolize "Valstarino." It is a masterpiece that combines a tough side typical of Italian style with luxurious elements suitable for adult attire.

4. CINQUANTA

CINQUANTA Safari Jacket ¥159,840 ■ Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building 5th Floor = Business Clothing

A sophisticated and evolved adult safari jacket.

CINQUANTA has established a solid position as a leather wear brand. This safari jacket features four pockets and a belted design, and the soft goat suede is of the highest quality. The refined leather gives it an elegant impression without being rugged, and together with the slightly high waist belt, it creates a beautiful silhouette. It fits a wide range of styles, from casual to dressy, and is a perfect example of the colonial-inspired style that is currently being featured.

5. AJMONE

AJMONE Leather Blouson ¥334,800 ■ Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building 5th Floor = Business Clothing

A rider jacket that shines with meticulous craftsmanship, perfect for enjoying the process of breaking it in.

Aimone offers an elegant style that prioritizes comfort and detail, often referred to as "sartorial leather." Respecting the unique essence of Italian craftsmanship, they use structured patterns based on sartorial principles, transforming leather, which is inherently a masculine and powerful item, into a truly exceptional piece. By using only carefully tanned, high-quality leather and sewing it in an Italian workshop, they create a beautifully crafted rider's jacket. Original parts are used for the zippers and other hardware, and the fine stitching of the leather rider's jacket gives it a soft, refined appearance.
