Heavyweight and crazy warm, this 1980s vintage Giel black sheepskin leather jacket is fully lined with thick, plush, silky soft black shearling fur. Super boxy with wide set shoulders, with extra long, roomy sleeves. Two front pockets have a padded edge and are fully lined. The collar is large and notched. Black buttons are on the right side of the jacket, with the holes on the left, so this would traditionally be a mens jacket, but as you can see it looks great on any body. This baby is heavy, weighing in over 5 pounds. While some sheepskin is delicate and petal soft on the surface, this exterior is sturdier and has the cobbled texture of a leather vs suede finish. The interior and exterior are both supple with great flexibility, no dried out or aged areas. If you love the chic aggression of the 80s oversized look, this piece is for YOU...
