{"product_id":"the-crocodile-hour-leather-jacket","title":"The Crocodile Hour | Cropped PU Leather Jacket with Wide Flare Sleeves","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrocodile embossing is a texture that has to be earned by the pattern, not announced by it. Done badly it reads as plastic luggage. Done as it is here, with the scale tight enough to catch light in small facets rather than large slabs, it reads as animal. The jacket is cropped, cut loose through the body, and closed with an asymmetrical wrap front that never lines up the way a zip does, which is the point: the asymmetry is what stops a leather jacket from looking like the fourth one on the same street.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sleeve is the other decision worth naming. Instead of a tapered arm, this uses a wide flare that opens from the elbow, so the cuff falls over the hand and the silhouette widens at the wrist rather than narrowing. That single change alters the proportion of everything worn beneath it, because the eye reads the widest point as the hem. Worn over a slip dress the flare reads soft. Worn over a hooded sweatshirt it reads deliberately oversized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe material is PU leather with a crocodile emboss, which buys two things real hide cannot at this price: consistent scale across every panel, and a surface that wipes clean instead of absorbing rain. The stand collar sits high enough to frame the jaw and stays up without a fastening, and the interior is lined so the material never touches skin directly. Cropped length stops at the waist, which keeps the proportion sharp over wide leg trousers and stops the jacket from fighting a midi skirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColour is where the range does its work. Dark green and wine red are the two that photograph as depth rather than as brightness, brown reads as traditional animal, and white and black carry the widest styling range. The cut is deliberately loose, so the size that fits your shoulders is usually the size that fits, with room left for a knit beneath. Treat it as outerwear for autumn and mild winter, not as a coat substitute in freezing weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTexture does the talking.

It suits a night out better than a commute, since PU leather does not breathe the way hide does.
