What is a sheepskin coat?

Written by Kimberly Jose  »  Updated on: November 02nd, 2024

A sheepskin coat is made from genuine sheepskin or lambskin with tanned suede or leather material on one side and a treated fur coat with the soft wool left attached on the other side. The treatment process can make both the leather and the animal skins very expensive, so a good sheepskin coat can cost you over $1,000. That's cool, but a sheepskin coat is a timeless fashion statement and an investment you'll carry with you for life.

If cost and ecology play a big role in your decision, it wouldn't hurt to consider imitation. Faux sheepskin is more affordable than sheepskin, but quality must also be considered to ensure it performs well in freezing temperatures.

Denim Sherpa Jacket

The first jacket we would like to start with is the Sherpa Denim Jacket. Sherpa lining is similar to real sheep wool, but Sherpa is made from polyester , acrylic or cotton 90024, which is much lighter, less bulky and dries faster. Deep indigo denim is a fashion staple in every guy’s wardrobe, the fabric makes it more versatile and the shearling collar just adds a distinctive detail to it. Never be afraid to go for double denim. A pair of black jeans and a navy sherpa denim jacket with a pair of clean white sneakers will create a casual look perfect for a Sunday stroll. If double denim is not your go-to fashion style, you can always opt for sand-colored chinos instead.

Men's leather sheepskin coat

A leather sheepskin coat is a timeless fashion item that you should have at least one in your capsule wardrobe. It is perfect for covering up any outfit, from a casual white tee to a more formal outfit. The most classic way to wear a leather jacket is with a white tee or sweater as an inner layer and black skinny jeans or ripped jeans with sneakers.

If you're looking for a more formal look, pair it with a polo shirt and wool trousers and a pair of suede Chelsea boots. Both of these styles will give you the most gorgeous tailored look, perfect for your workday.

Men's suede sheepskin coat

A suede shearling coat may not be the best choice for wearing where it rains a lot in the winter. The pile surface of suede is hydrophilic and attracts moisture to the skin. For the same reason, any dyes or pigments that have been applied to the suede will likely fade or run when exposed to a lot of water. In addition to this discoloration, suede can shrink noticeably as it dries. However, once you realize how warm and windproof they are, you may change your mind. The best way to style a suede shearling coat is to pair it with a white tee, blue jeans, and a nice pair of white sneakers or Chelsea boots. It should be noted that a suede jacket should not be worn on a rainy day and requires special care

Shearling Bomber Jacket

The bomber jacket first appeared during the war, and today this super tough aviator jacket has evolved into the most famous outerwear of all time. Adding a shearling collar to the bomber jacket gives you a stylish look and keeps you warm during the cold months ahead. This jacket has since become the most practical winter coat, easy to style and very durable. With a retro design, this piece will be a wardrobe essential for years to come. The most stylish way to wear a shearling bomber jacket is to pair it with a white tee/sweater or a check shirt, blue jeans and a pair of winter boots. If you want to rock the heroic aviator style, invest in a good pair of pilot sunglasses and a pair of black leather gloves.
