The Beton Brut Rider

A leather jacket like a concrete slab. 

The Beton Brut Rider is inspired by the simple but refined beauty of Brutalist architecture. Built from a leather that is matte but supple, hard but luxurious, the Beton Brut Rider will age and wear over time, just like a brutalist masterpiece.  Clean, stark lines form the body panels and collar, while a hemispherical articulated raglan sleeve provides mobility in a close silhouette.  Two front pockets are sealed with magnets, while two large zippered internal pockets offer larger, protected storage.  A zippered chest pocket is accessible while the jacket remains zipped shut to provide accessible and secure storage.

The topstitch of the jacket is used to pronounce the brutalist and architectural aspects of the garment’s design. This is most noticeable in the bold front topstitch that traces around the chest pocket and center front zipper.
