Mossimo Leather Jacket — Premium Craftsmanship & Timeless Style
Our Mossimo leather jacket is designed for the modern wardrobe — a premium piece that moves seamlessly from weekend outings to evening plans. We source top-grain cowhide that softens with wear while maintaining its structure, then hand-finish every stitch and panel for durability you can feel. The jacket features a streamlined silhouette with just enough room through the shoulders and chest for layering, plus interior pockets that keep essentials secure without adding bulk.
We select only top-grain cowhide for the Mossimo leather jacket — a hide grade prized for its natural grain and lasting durability. Top-grain leather retains the outer layer of the hide where collagen fibers are tightest, which means the jacket resists scuffs and stretches while developing a rich patina over time. Each panel is cut by hand to ensure consistent thickness, then drum-dyed so color penetrates deep into the fiber rather than sitting on the surface.
Fit & sizing guidance
The Mossimo leather jacket runs true to size with a tailored fit through the body and sleeves. We design for a modern silhouette that skims close without restricting movement — there’s enough room in the chest and shoulders to layer a sweater or hoodie underneath, but the jacket won’t billow or add unnecessary bulk. Ribbed knit cuffs and hem provide gentle elastic tension that holds the jacket in place without cutting off circulation.
Measuring for your best fit
For accurate sizing, measure your chest at its widest point with your arms relaxed at your sides. If you fall between sizes, we recommend sizing up if you plan to layer heavily in colder months, or staying true to size for a sleeker profile over shirts and light knits. Sleeve length is based on a standard arm measurement from center back neck to wrist — our size chart breaks down exact measurements for every dimension, so you can compare against a jacket you already own.
Care & maintenance
Leather is a natural material that responds well to simple, consistent care. We treat every Mossimo leather jacket with a protective finish before it leaves our facility, but regular conditioning helps preserve suppleness and color. Apply a leather conditioner every three to six months — more often if you wear the jacket daily or in harsh weather. Use a soft cloth to work the conditioner into the surface in small circular motions, then let the jacket air-dry away from direct heat.
For routine cleaning, wipe the jacket with a slightly damp cloth to lift surface dust and grime. Avoid submerging leather in water or placing it in a washing machine, as excess moisture can strip natural oils and cause stiffening. If the jacket gets wet in rain or snow, hang it on a padded hanger in a well-ventilated space and allow it to dry naturally — never use a hairdryer or radiator, which can crack the hide. Store the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry closet when not in use, and avoid plastic garment bags that trap humidity.

Leather jacket questions answered
We recommend measuring your chest at its fullest point and comparing that measurement to our size chart. The jacket is designed with a modern tailored fit — close to the body but with enough room through the chest and shoulders for layering a sweater or hoodie. If you’re between sizes and plan to wear the jacket over heavier layers in winter, size up. If you prefer a sleeker profile over shirts and light knits, stick with your usual size.
Sleeve length is based on a standard measurement from center back neck to wrist. Most customers find the jacket runs true to size, but you can always reach out to our team with your measurements if you’d like a personalized recommendation before ordering.
We use top-grain cowhide for every Mossimo leather jacket. Top-grain is the highest-quality grade of leather — it retains the natural grain and outer layer of the hide where collagen fibers are densest, which gives the material its durability and flexibility. This grade resists scuffs and stretching better than corrected-grain or split leather, and it develops a rich patina over time as natural oils migrate through the hide.
Each hide is drum-dyed so color penetrates deep into the fiber rather than sitting on the surface, which means the jacket won’t show wear as quickly and color remains consistent even after years of use.
Yes, the jacket can handle light rain or drizzle without issue. We apply a protective finish to the leather before it ships, which helps repel moisture on the surface. If the jacket does get wet, hang it on a padded hanger in a well-ventilated area and let it air-dry naturally — avoid using a hairdryer or placing it near a radiator, as direct heat can crack the leather.
For heavier rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions, we recommend wearing a waterproof shell over the jacket or choosing a different outerwear option for that day. Regular conditioning every few months will also help maintain the leather’s natural moisture barrier.
Leather responds well to simple, consistent care. Apply a leather conditioner every three to six months to keep the hide supple and prevent drying or cracking. Use a soft cloth to work the conditioner into the surface in small circular motions, then let the jacket air-dry away from heat sources.
For routine cleaning, wipe the jacket with a slightly damp cloth to lift surface dust. Never submerge leather in water or machine-wash it, as excess moisture strips natural oils. Store the jacket on a sturdy padded hanger in a cool, dry closet when not in use, and avoid plastic garment bags that trap humidity and encourage mildew.
Yes, the jacket includes two interior slip pockets in addition to the two exterior zip pockets. The interior pockets are sized to hold a wallet, passport, or phone securely without adding visible bulk to the jacket’s silhouette. Both exterior pockets feature YKK zippers that glide smoothly and resist corrosion, so you can store items confidently without worrying about zippers snagging or failing over time.
We offer the jacket in three neutral shades — black, cognac, and dark brown. Black is a versatile option that pairs with virtually any color palette and maintains a sleek, modern look. Cognac has warm amber and honey tones that add richness to casual and smart-casual outfits. Dark brown is a deep chocolate hue that works well with earth tones and offers a slightly softer alternative to black.
All three colors are drum-dyed so pigment penetrates the entire hide rather than sitting on the surface, which means the color stays true even as the leather develops its natural patina.
The jacket is designed with a modern, streamlined silhouette that leans more toward smart-casual than formal. You can absolutely wear it over a button-down shirt and chinos for dinner, date nights, or creative-office settings where dress codes are relaxed. The clean lines and moto-inspired collar give it an elevated look that reads as polished without being overly dressy.
For traditional formal events that call for a suit or blazer, we’d recommend sticking with tailored outerwear instead. But if your event falls in the smart-casual or business-casual range, the Mossimo leather jacket is a strong choice.
