The “Varenne” is inspired by late 1940s sport jackets, reworked with a distinctive Italian touch. It’s an authentic piece made from full grain, vegetable tanned Vacchetta cowhide by Carlo Badalassi® in Tuscany, one of the finest tanneries in the world.
Carlo Badalassi® is known for mastering the art of vegetable tanning and producing the legendary Vacchetta leather. This cowhide is top tier full grain leather, vegetable tanned with an aniline finish.
At around 1.2 mm thick, the Varenne has a solid, heavyweight feel that speaks to its premium quality. Natural leather like Badalassi Vacchetta has its own character. Slight variations in grain, texture, small scratches, or tone are part of what makes each jacket authentic and unique.
Vegetable tanned leather tells a story over time. It ages beautifully, developing a rich patina with wear. The natural tannins give the leather warm tones that deepen with everyday use. The more you wear it, the better it looks.
Choosing Tuscan vegetable tanned leather means choosing something truly one of a kind, a piece that reflects your lifestyle and values.
The zippers are antique brass with engraved markings, adding to the vintage feel. Every detail is carefully considered, making this a rare and genuine leather jacket, handmade in Italy.
Built for bikers, rockers, and gentlemen alike.
The name “Varenne” pays tribute to the legendary Italian racehorse, considered the greatest of all time.
Any variations in color, grain, or texture are not defects. They are part of the natural beauty and artisanal quality of the leather.
Proudly handmade in Italy.
Each jacket comes with a high quality 100 percent organic cotton bag, finished with a Havana rope drawstring and a screen printed logo.
