🧥 Unisex Leather Jacket — PDF Sewing Pattern

6 sizes, XS–2XL · Full-length front zip · Flat collar · Two welt pockets · Set-in sleeves · A4 and A0 · Seam allowance not included

A straight, clean jacket with a front zip, a flat collar and two welt pockets. No asymmetric zip, no studs, no buckles — just the classic outerwear shape that has never gone anywhere.

And you do not need leather to make it. The same pattern works in faux leather, coated cotton, heavy twill, canvas, denim or a wool blend. That matters more than it sounds: leather cannot be unpicked, every needle hole is permanent, and a hide is expensive. Cut this once in canvas or denim, check the fit across your shoulders, adjust — then cut your leather knowing it will work. You end up with two jackets and no ruined hide. ✨

🧵 What's Included

✔️ 6 sizes, XS through 2XL ✔️ Written step-by-step sewing instructions ✔️ A4 printable PDF, ready to tile ✔️ A0 copy-shop PDF ✔️ Sheet assembly guide with a calibration square

📏 Size Chart

Check your shoulder measurement as well as your chest — on a jacket with set-in sleeves, the shoulder is what decides whether it sits right.

⚠️ Seam Allowance Is Not Included

This pattern is drafted to the finished stitching line. You add your own seam allowance when you cut — commonly ⅜″–⅝″ (1–1.5 cm). This is normal practice for many PDF patterns, and it has a real advantage on this jacket: leather and coated fabrics are usually sewn with a narrower allowance than woven cloth, so you can choose the one that suits your material instead of unpicking someone else's.

👔 Fabric Options

Real leather · Faux leather · Coated or waxed cotton · Heavy twill · Canvas · Denim · Wool blend

• Rotary cutter and a cutting mat
• A wonder clip or two for holding the zip while you sew it

📌 Please Note

Seam allowance is not included — add your own when cutting. Print at 100% or Actual Size, never Fit to Page, and check the calibration square before you cut. Leather and coated fabrics cannot be unpicked: every needle hole is permanent, so test your stitch length and tension on a scrap first. Colours may look slightly different from one screen to another. This listing is for the pattern only, not a finished jacket.
