Sheep Leather
The story

Sheep is a light hide, which is why it works for a jacket you actually put on rather than one that hangs in a hallway waiting for an occasion. This one carries an antique finish: the colour is laid on unevenly by design, so the piece reads worn before you have worn it, and it keeps developing where the sleeve and the front crease. It is cut regular with a two-way zip. Care is short: it is not washed, not ironed and not dry cleaned, and a leather specialist handles anything more.

Why choose it

For a leather jacket that looks like you have had it for years on the first day.

01

Antique finish

The colour goes on unevenly by design, so wear reads as character rather than as damage.

02

Sheep, so it is light

A lighter hide than most, which is what makes the jacket wearable rather than ceremonial.

03

Two-way zip

Opens from the hem as well as the neck, so it sits right over a knit.

What you pay for

Riley Leather Jacket: €429 here. €599 average market price.

Average market price is what a comparable piece costs from a brand that sells through other people's shops: department stores and multi-brand retailers. That price has to carry the brand's margin and the shop's margin, stacked. Ours carries one.

Our margin

Margin is not profit. It goes to getting the piece to your door: shipping, returns, the warehouse. Then to running No Label: the team, the stores, the fit sessions, the photography. What is left goes into next season's fabric. On sale pieces there is often nothing left at all, because overstock is money sitting in a warehouse and we would rather it moved than marked up.
