  • Custom Leather Jackets with Fur Trim

    Custom Leather Jacket With Fur Trim

    There are many different reasons to wear your own custom leather jacket with fur. With Jakewood Leather and Exotic Skin Apparel, we've got a wide range of customizable options and choices for leather jackets with fur trim and lining, including fox, coyote, raccoon, chinchilla, and rabbit.

    One of the main reasons for wearing exotic fur trim or lining with your custom leather jacket is that it is more practical than most people think. Many people have the idea that if something looks too good to be true, than it must not be. That if a leather jacket with fur trim looks stylish, it must be sacrificing in other areas like practicality or insulation. When in fact, this is the opposite.

    Our leather is sourced from the finest sheepskin and lambskin as well as more exotic fare such as alligator and python, our fur from animals such as chinchilla and coyote. It is guaranteed to last for many years and withstand the rigors of day to day usage and the outdoor and weather elements, while keeping in body heat, without absorbing it into the material. This makes a nice leather and fur jacket perfect for cold weather, allowing you to keep warm, while also making a nice trim leather and fur jacket equally as perfect for warmer weather, with its ability to keep heat out.

    While some people may want to go right to faux furs when thinking about durability, this is actually a fallacy. many faux furs, with their synthetic materials and chemicals, do not last nearly as long as real furs and wear out much faster. Meanwhile, the genuine articles get passed down between family members generation to generation all the time.

    Another fallacy is the idea that real fur absorbs moisture. This is actually true of fake furs, where the material can weaken quicker, but real furs are actually able to shake off water and dry much quicker because of their finer, natural material. Mixing the thin, natural material of fur with the durability of leather is a winning combination for any situation.

    The other huge benefit is style. We've already discussed how durable real fur and leather can be, so there is no need to sacrifice style over substance. With Jakewood, you can customize your leather jacket with fur any way you want to. You can pick from our seemingly endless range of color and dye options for your leather, as well as type of exotic fur trim. Perfect for fully customizable pockets, fur patches, collar types, and more. Nothing is too demanding or taxing for us. We are here to serve you and your custom leather and fur coat needs.

    We know that working with furs of all kinds should be an exacting, careful process, which is why we have access to local craftsmen who cut all of our fabric and materials in-house. Then, the materials are handed to our tailors and seamstresses. Our leather and fur specialists work hand-in-hand with our designers and have years of experience working with various rare and difficult materials like leather and fur. The designers and tailors work together to make sure that we maintain a single cohesive oversight of your custom leather and fur jacket.

    After your custom leather and fur jacket is completed, we have a thorough quality assurance process in place to make sure that there are no errors or omissions on your custom leather and fur jacket. From there, we ship it out to you from our Brooklyn, NY location to anywhere in the United States.

    With leather and fur jackets being perennially in-style and with their durability at a level that you will be passing your custom leather and fur jacket down through future generations, it's time to contact Jakewood today to discuss your next custom leather and fur jacket.

  • Custom Sheepskin Jackets From Jakewood

    Posted by Jake Jake

    Are you looking for a great custom sheepskin jacket or custom shearling coat? Then look no further than Jakewood Leather and Exotic Skin Apparel.

    While some customers choose Jakewood for our wide selection of leather jackets and exotic animal skin apparel, we are also your number one designer of sheepskin jackets and custom shearling coats.

    Sheepskin differs from leather because sheepskin is tanned in conjunction with the actual wool itself, giving the material a comfortable and soft feel that is both light in weight and durable. Sheepskin material also adjusts well to varying body temperatures while providing a quality, luxurious appearance in any environment.

    Sheepskin and shearling jackets come in a variety of styles and endless customizations. Shearling jackets are very casual and can be worn for any occasion from regal galas to family gatherings. Heads are sure to turn as guests notice the lightweight style and flair of a slim, sleek shearling coat.

    Shearling coats are kept lightweight for easy wearability and as to not be too bulky, like other modern coats and jackets. They perfectly blend that aforementioned style with a comfort that is simply unmatched.

    Shearling coats also come in a variety of colors. For example, you could go for a classic winter sportsman look and get a brown dyed leather exterior with a white wool trim or try a rustic red dyed shearling coat with flannel pattern and wool trim. The sky is the limit on options and no custom design is too outlandish or out of our designer's range.

    Another big positive when choosing to have a custom sheepskin jacket or custom shearling coat created is that sheepskin and shearling attire is naturally water resistant. The wool fibers do not let water penetrate the core material. While the core material itself is able to soak up moisture up to a full thirty percent its own weight without getting damp. Custom shearling coats can also repel rainwater and absorb moisture from external water exposure. After the water or snow is absorbed, a shearling coat or jacket can be lightly shaken and cleaned in quick fashion, unlike other materials where water would otherwise linger and cause damage or mold over time.

    Due to those moisture absorbing properties, a custom sheepskin or custom shearling coat is perfect for moderate weather as well as extreme weather. Sheepskin material is very adaptable to temperature and can keep you well insulated in cold weather while keeping you dry and cool in the spring and summer.

    Now that you know the vast benefits of a custom sheepskin jacket, you can make an appointment to visit our showroom and workshop in Brooklyn, NY and let one of our expert designers take your measurements in-person. We also allow our customers to ship us a favorite jacket of theirs from anywhere in the United States. We can then use that as an existing template to make sure the fit of your custom shearling jacket lines up perfectly with your existing wardrobe.

    Our custom sheepskin jackets and custom shearling coats are hand-made at our Brooklyn, NY location and crafted by our designers with authentic genuine materials. With a limitless number of options and customizations, you are sure to find the right jacket or coat for your needs with us.
