Why it's worth it
Brown leather chevron down the front, brass buttons holding it all together — the hardware is load-bearing.
The Edit
A triangular leather bib — cut from brown pebbled hide — descends from padded, slightly built-up shoulders to a deep central point, bisected by a column of antique brass push buttons. The jersey body is gathered into exaggerated ruching and swept into wide batwing sleeves that taper to ribbed cuffs, the whole silhouette landing above the knee. Partially lined, two-material construction with no visible zipper — the buttons are both closure and centerpiece.
