Description

Brown deerskin, a Western yoke, and a long, easy shape—this is the kind of jacket that belongs equally on a ranch road, in the canyon, or headed toward the coast.

The leather is soft and substantial, with the natural drape that makes deerskin so good to wear. Across the shoulders, a dark suede yoke gives the jacket its unmistakable Western line, while the longer body, broad collar, and oversized patch pockets keep the whole thing relaxed.

There’s something very California about the mix. Western clothes have always traveled easily here—from ranch country into the canyons, from horse towns to beach towns, from workwear into everyday life. This jacket has that same freedom to it. Wear it with faded denim, an old white tee, cords, boots, or whatever you already live in.

The construction is beautifully straightforward: four-button front, large patch pockets, a buttoned half-belt across the back, and cream satin lining. Nothing fussy, just good leather and strong proportions.

Made in the USA for DeerWear by Mid-Western Sport Togs of Berlin, Wisconsin, it carries the kind of American Western workmanship that only gets better once it has some years behind it.

Deerskin has deep roots in American Western clothing because it is soft, strong, and unusually comfortable once broken in. That made it as practical around ranch and outdoor life as it was good-looking enough to wear into town.

What we love here is the way that tradition translates so easily to California. The dark Western yoke, long brown leather body, and easy proportions feel completely at home in the state’s own version of the West—ranch country, canyon roads, coastal towns, old trucks, boots, denim, and sun-faded everything.

It’s the kind of jacket that carries the West without having to announce it.
