Albert Richard leather jackets are made in Japan, with a focus on precise construction, skilled craftsmanship, and careful attention to finishing and detail.

We select leather according to the character and purpose of each jacket. Because leather is a natural material, subtle variations in grain, texture, and tone are part of its unique character rather than imperfections.

A new leather jacket should feel structured and comfortably close to the body without restricting movement. With wear, the leather will gradually soften and adapt to your shape. Please refer to the measurements provided on each product page when selecting your size.

Yes. That is part of what makes leather special. With regular wear, the surface will soften, the color may deepen, and natural creases and patina will begin to develop. Over time, every jacket becomes uniquely yours.

Avoid excessive moisture, heat, and prolonged direct sunlight. After wearing, allow the jacket to rest on a wide, supportive hanger in a well-ventilated area. For deeper cleaning, conditioning, or stain removal, we recommend consulting a professional leather specialist.

Light, unexpected rain is generally manageable, but leather should not be treated as waterproof. If the jacket becomes wet, gently blot away excess moisture and allow it to dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use a hair dryer or place it near direct heat.
