Full Vegetable Tanned Italian Shrunken Double Shoulder Steer Hide Garment Burning Dyed Double Riders - ASH AZU

A leather jacket that has been through a fire Uses leather made from Italian steer double-shoulder hides that have been full-tannin tanned in Japan. It is tanned using vegetable tannins while maintaining its substantial thickness, causing it to shrink thoroughly and bringing out a natural, raised grain texture. A generous application of oil during the finishing process makes the material exceptionally supple, allowing it to conform to your body the more you wear it. After the garment is fully sewn, it is garment-dyed while being subjected to a burning process. Mix alcohol and dye, spray, and ignite. Burning Dyed – Burning a Leather Jacket After the flame spreads to the alcohol, it transfers to the dye, causing a reaction that changes the dye's color; the resulting scorching creates a unique, uneven appearance. The flame is extinguished before it can spread to the leather, thereby setting the dye. The resulting charred dye creates unique variations in shading and texture, lending the leather an air of elegance and allure. Burning Dyed: ASH AZU "ASH AZU (Ash Azurite Gradient)" is created by first dyeing the leather a purplish-blue and then applying a navy "burning dye" finish after the product has been crafted. In addition to the vibrant, variegated blue achieved through "burning dyeing," the leather is iron-finished to accentuate the distinctive luster of tannin-tanned leather, and further enhanced with a stained gradient effect. This marks the first time a gradient finish has been applied following the "burning dye" process. The interplay of shifting shades—from blue to navy—combined with the material's luster creates a look with remarkable depth. ━ Burning Dyed “Mono Fade”下地までBurning Dyedの染め色と同系色で芯通ししているため、経年変化しても同系色の中で濃淡が深まっていくタイプ。色相を大きく変えず、コントラストが強まることで、立体感のある表情へと変化していきます。 LEATHER MODEL ID: HI-FLYER The HI-FLYER double rider's jacket features vintage-inspired details and a distinctive, unconventional pocket layout, along with carefully crafted functional elements such as a stand-up collar designed to block the wind. Inspired by vintage styles, studs from American Standard are attached to both ends of the zipper. A zippered pocket featuring metal accents at both ends is positioned on the inner placket. There is a lapel on the inside of the upper collar; by fully closing the front and fastening the lapel, it can serve as a wind guard. The zipper is manufactured by the Italian company Raccagni. Its smooth operation and exceptional durability reflect the exquisite craftsmanship characteristic of Raccagni, a company with a long history of producing high-quality zippers. Metal components that add a touch of elegant luster to the rugged aesthetic harmonize with the texture of the leather, elevating the level of perfection down to the finest detail. Gussets under the arms ensure a wide range of arm movement. For the lining, we use high-quality cotton satin —a material typically reserved for outer fabrics—to ensure durability. For the back panel, the leather is cut and sewn so that the spine of the cowhide aligns with the center of the rider's jacket. This design allows the distinctive grain of the "double shoulder" leather to radiate outward from the center of the back, enveloping the entire garment and showcasing the material's natural scars and unique character.
