FAQs

What type of leather is this jacket made from?

The jacket is crafted from tumbled waxed leather, known for its supple feel and durable, slightly rugged appearance.

How should I clean the jacket?

Clean by wiping with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the leather. Specialized leather cleaners and conditioners are recommended for deeper care.

Is this jacket waterproof?

The waxed finish offers some water resistance, protecting against light rain or splashes. It is not fully waterproof and prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided.

Can I wear this jacket in warm weather?

Due to its leather construction, this jacket is best suited for cooler temperatures. The zipped cuffs and two-way zip offer some adjustability for milder conditions.

How does the sizing run?

This jacket follows standard men's sizing. It's recommended to consult the size chart and consider your preferred fit, especially if layering underneath.

What does the embossed Oval D logo signify?

The embossed Oval D logo on the back hem is a subtle branding element that references Diesel's distinctive house codes.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

Store the jacket on a wide, padded hanger to maintain its shape, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff or dry

Apply a specialized leather conditioner for waxed leather. Allow it to absorb, then gently buff off any excess.

Surface scuffs or minor marks

For minor scuffs, try gently rubbing the area with a clean, dry cloth. For more noticeable marks, a leather repair balm might be necessary, but test in an inconspicuous area first.

Zipper is stiff or sticking

Gently apply a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to the zipper teeth. Move the zipper up and down several times to work it in.

Jacket develops an odor

Air the jacket out in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. You can also place a sachet of baking soda or activated charcoal inside the pockets or inside the jacket overnight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no setup as it is ready to wear upon purchase. Its compatibility is primarily with casual and smart-casual wardrobes. For care, it is crucial to maintain the waxed leather to preserve its quality and appearance.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe down with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water, as this can damage the wax finish and leather.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically condition the leather with a specialized leather conditioner designed for waxed finishes. This replenishes moisture and maintains suppleness. Apply sparingly and buff off any excess.
  3. Storage: Store the jacket on a wide, padded hanger to maintain its shape. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat, which can cause the leather to dry out or fade.
  4. Protection: For added protection against water and stains, consider applying a wax-based reproofing product specifically for leather jackets, following product instructions carefully.
