Packard Western Shirt - Chocolate Goatskin

Crafted from luxurious chocolate brown goatskin suede, this Western-style overshirt features a uniquely rounded longhorn yoke and spacious snap pockets. Its tailored yet relaxed fit offers versatility, layering seamlessly over various knits. Constructed with meticulous double needle stitching and custom copper snaps, the unlined interior provides a plush feel against the skin. Ideal for both work and casual wear, this jacket beautifully develops a distinctive patina over time with use. From the brand: The Packard is Freenote's latest style of Western Shirt, featuring a more rounded longhorn yoke and acorn pockets. The fit is somewhere between relaxed and tailored, sitting comfortably slim but not snug, with plenty of room to move - it's a great work overshirt, layering easily over knits like tees or heavier mid-layers like sweaters and flannels. The chest features two surprisingly spacious snap pockets, and the sleeves end in a classic two snap setup that can be easily cuffed like a non-leather shirt. It's made from a chocolate brown "reverse" goatskin - which is to say that they flipped the hide so that things are suede-side-out and smooth-side-in. Tanned by Tustin & Burnett in England, it's immediately soft and comfortable, requiring virtually no break-in and quickly taking the shape of the wearer's body. Over time, the suede will wear down to a more smooth texture in areas that regularly experience abrasion, developing a unique and handsome patina.  The construction is Freenote's usual top tier work, with 1/8" double needle stitching details and custom Freenote copper snaps. Inside, it's left "unlined" with the smooth face of the leather facing inwards to provide a surprisingly plush and secure interior. Plus, check out that downright gorgeous woven "Freenote Leathers" label sewn into the neck. Fits true to size.
