Lamb Leather Vests: Soft, Light and Easy to Wear
A lamb leather vest feels soft and light from the first time you put it on. This collection brings together our lambskin leather vests for men and women, from full-grain lambskin biker vests to fitted fashion styles, in real leather. Every lamb leather vest ships free across the USA and worldwide on orders over $150. Shop below, or browse all of our leather vest styles.
Why choose lambskin
Lambskin is thinner, softer and lighter than cowhide, with a smooth, buttery feel and a fine grain. It drapes well and needs little breaking in, which makes it ideal for everyday wear and warm weather. It is less abrasion-resistant than cowhide, so heavy-duty riders often choose cowhide or buffalo instead.
Caring for lambskin
Lambskin marks a little more easily, so wipe it gently with a soft cloth, keep it away from sharp edges and condition it once or twice a year.
Size and fit tips
Every product page has its own men's or women's size chart. The simplest way to choose: lay a vest you like flat, measure across the chest and double it, then compare. Make sure the vest closes over the layer you'll wear underneath and, for riding, covers your belt line. If you are between sizes, choose the larger one. Use our leather vest size chart if you are unsure.
Caring for your leather vest
Smooth leather needs little care. Wipe off dust and road grime with a soft, slightly damp cloth, let it dry naturally away from heaters, and condition it once or twice a year so it stays supple. Clean carefully around patches, hang the vest on a wide hanger and never put it in a washing machine or dryer.

What makes a good leather vest
Check five things before you buy any leather vest. The leather should be named - cowhide, buffalo, lambskin or suede - not just 'genuine'. The stitching should be even and tight, with no loose threads at the armholes. Snaps, zips and buckles should feel solid and close firmly. The lining should be sewn in neatly, and the pockets should close. Every vest in this collection is real leather, and each product page lists the leather, closures and pockets.
What to wear under it
In warm weather, a T-shirt, tank or henley. In spring and fall, a flannel, denim shirt or thin long-sleeve top. When it's cold, a hoodie or a light jacket, so size the vest to close over your thickest layer. Dark denim and boots go with almost every leather vest, on the bike and off it.
A vest for every season
Leather vests work all year. In summer, wear a lighter or perforated vest open at stops; in fall, over a flannel or hoodie; in winter, under an open coat or as a warm puffer or sherpa vest; in spring, over a long-sleeve tee. Condition the leather before winter and again before summer to keep it supple.
