The 1.3 mm leather exterior has visible tonal variation across its black surface, creating a gently weathered character instead of a perfectly flat finish. Black shearling continues through the interior and remains exposed around the collar, front opening, cuffs and hem.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBecause the shearling and exterior belong to the same substantial cold-weather construction, the jacket provides insulation without requiring a separate synthetic fleece lining.
