Leather lotion should be used on finished leather only as it cleans, moisturizes and preserves the leather.

Outerwear Silhouettes at Wilsons Leather:
There are a variety of outerwear silhouettes available at Wilsons Leather. A blazer features a classic fit with peak or standard lapels and can be worn as a layering piece or outerwear. A bomber is a classic short jacket. It is fitted at the waist with either knit or gathering. A scuba silhouette is a close-fitting jacket that ends at the waist or hip. It may have a short stand up collar or no collar with either an asymmetrical or straight zip front. Cycle silhouettes can be made for both function and fashion. Functional cycle jackets are made for riding motorcycles. They fit close to the body and are longer in the back and sleeves than other jackets. Fashion cycle jackets take the attitude and look of the cycle jacket, but are made for everyday wear. They are typically constructed with lighter-weight leather or even faux-leather and do not have zippered vents or removable liners. Peacoats feature a double-breasted front with a button front closure. Double-breasted refers to the jacket as having a very wide overlapping of the front flaps, and two parallel columns of buttons or snaps. This provides extra thickness of material over the chest creating more warmth. A parka is a loose-fitting, hip length jacket that is often closed up to the collar. A hipster is a mid-length jacket that typically ends at the top of the thigh. It can be zip or button-front and is sometime belted. A trench is styled after belted raincoats worn in the trenches during WWII. It is available in short and long styles, single or double breasted and can be a zip or button front closure. A topper is one of the longest outerwear options. It typically has a dressy look with a classic fit.
