The option to get it wet.

Leather jackets must not be wetted.

Many people think so.

But I,Soaking it completely in the shower.

The one on the left is new; the one on the right is my personal jacket.

 

Good evening. This is cantáte Matsushima.

 

Today, I would like to talk about how it changes over time.

For details on the specifications and design of the leather jacket, please see here.

This sheepskin, too, was wetted with water immediately after completion.

And then I continued wearing it every day for a week.

The reason is simple:Because I do not want to be unsettled by a sudden shower.

Leather that has been thoroughly wetted and dried once

It will not react excessively the next time it gets wet.

The first time, move the fibers thoroughly.

That alone allows the leather to settle.

Clothing worn while worrying about rain can make you feel somewhat guarded.

If you face it from the start, you will not need to worry about it anymore.

 

It has only been worn for a week.

This sheepskin has not been thickly stiffened with pigment.

Because the finish is centered on dyes, the fibers move naturally.

Large wrinkles that emerge precisely because it has been wet

 

It loosens once it absorbs water,

The fibers tighten as it dries.

At that point, the leather becomes slightly crisp.

I think people are the same.

If you apply nothing after a bath, your skin feels taut.

As moisture escapes, the surface tightens.

Leather, too, tightens.

that distinctive “crisp texture.”

The reason people say, “That is fine leather,” is

It lies not only in the amount of oil, but also in this firmness.

Softness alone does not create the right feel.

Because of its firmness, it develops character as it breaks in.

Wetting it in the shower may look rather rough.

But to me, it is breaking it in.

The way the shoulders drop.

The way the elbows settle in.

The forward pitch of the front panels.

The body's pressure is put into it all at once.

Not made through processing,

Its shape is formed by body heat and weight.

As a result, it may sometimes look as though it has been worn for a year.

But it is not about shortening the process.

I simply marked my own time into it first.

 

The first time you wet it may be a kind of commitment.

Not to store this leather,

For turning it into something to use.

And thankfully,

This sheepskinThey are steadily making their way to some wonderful owners.

Leather is better worn by someone than left sitting unused.
