The 613S is the slim version of the 613. The same heavyweight steerhide motorcycle jacket, but the main difference is the lack of the "underarm footballs." These additional vented panels connecting the sleeve to the body of the jacket were introduced in the 80s to provide a fuller range of mobility and was the last modern update to the style. Without these "footballs," the jacket provides a slimmer and more historic fit.
The 613S is proudly Made In The USA at our factory in Union, New Jersey with US Domestic raw material tanned in Mexico.

About this leather: Steerhide is a robust finished top grain cowhide leather that is as luxurious as it looks. It is plump, full bodied and rich to the touch, with a similar weight and warmth of naked cowhide. Its sealed finish offers an extra layer of protection against water, making it a practical choice for everyday wear (it’s best to keep any leather away from wetness for a prolonged period). It is then vacuum dried (instead of toggle dried) that leads to a slightly stiffer result as the fibers are not stretched and softened. Initially the leather may feel a bit stiff but given some time it will break in beautifully,m becoming butter-soft and conforming perfectly to your unique shape.
Stiffness: Very Stiff Weight: 3-3.5oz Origin: US Domestic Raw Material, Tanned in Mexico
