🚨 An exceptional piece for the discerning collector: this CHAPAL Roadster jacket is far more than just a garment — it’s a rare fragment of French leather history.

Founded in 1832, the House of Chapal embodies nearly two centuries of excellence. A pioneer in the U.S. with its Brooklyn tanneries and supplier to both French and American aviators, Chapal rose to international acclaim, winning six gold medals at the Universal Expositions of Paris, London, Brussels, Athens, and New York. Every creation is the result of masterful craftsmanship.

This Roadster model, produced in an ultra-limited series between 1995 and 1997, carries on that legendary heritage.
Inspired by the jackets worn by James Dean in the 1950s, it's crafted from deep brown glazed sheepskin, beautifully patinated over time.
Heavy, dense, supple, and full of life: full-grain leather that reveals the nobility of age.
