Step directly into the golden era of rock and roll chic with this breathtaking, authentic 1970s vintage 'Penny Lane' jacket.
Proudly crafted in England by Suede & Leathercraft Limited, this mid-length statement piece beautifully embodies the effortless bohemian glamour of the era.
Cut from an incredibly plush, heavy-weight chocolate brown genuine suede, the jacket features striking tailored panels framed by statement cream contrast top-stitching, deep front pockets, and structured retro tailoring.
The true showstoppers are the oversized collar and matching cuffs. Woven from a rare, high-end luxury blend of 70% Virgin Wool, 20% Nylon and 10% Cashmere, the trim delivers a gorgeous texture reminiscent of curly Persian lamb.
The silhouette is universally flattering, featuring a vertical line of brown buttons and a matching, detachable suede tie-belt to effortlessly cinch the waist. The interior is fully lined in a smooth tonal acetate for seamless layering over your favorite vintage knits.
It is in excellent vintage condition. The suede is supple with a beautiful natural nap, the lining is intact, and the wool-cashmere trim remains remarkably plush and curly. Minor points of note:- There is some discolouration to the lining at the armpits (there is no adverse odour), there is a small repair to the armhole lining seam. Three inner backing buttons which act as strengthening to the main buttons have been replaced. Overall giving authentic vintage character consistent with age.
Dry Clean Only (Professional leather/suede specialist recommended).
