Savannah Taupe Curly Sheepskin Zipper Gilet | Lilith by Owen Barry
Handcut and made from selected super textured British sheepskins, these wool out sheepskin gilets are carefully and lovingly produced in our own Somerset workshop, using the same traditional methods that we have used for over 75 years.
Bound with self-suede, YKK zipper close, and concealed pockets all give Lilith a stunning boho chic.
When toned with casual clothes it looks super stylish, but equally stunning when adding needed warmth to a more classic & tailored outfit.
Owen Barry is a certified Green Growth manufacturer, all of our skins are 100% a by-product of the food industry and resourced from LWG minimum silver level certified tanneries, guaranteeing both the highest ethical and environmental standards.
Merino Curly
Merino Curly Sheepskin (Shearling):- The characteristic of curly sheepskins is one of the most natural, essentially, the fleece is left soft and curly as you would find in nature. The wool is dense and warm, giving your winter coat a snuggly cosy feel.
The pelt side can be finished with either sueded or napalan (leather) surface.
Sueded: OB hand select all their skins to ensure that the suede surface is always soft and sensual, with a slight velvet nap on the suede.
Napalan: Is both a protective and a fashion finish, the leather surface can offer more protection against staining and grubbiness.
In our Somerset workshops every skin is painstakingly matched for every coat, by toning with adjoining skins we ensure that the garment is completely consistent in colour and texture all over, matching is a very skilled process, with many years training to perfect, if the matching process is not carried out to the highest standard, a shearling garment can include many multicoloured panels, OB also match the wool side of the coat as well ensuring that when you open it, inside there is a consistency throughout.
