Sigma Leathers FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What size should I order?

Use the Sigma Leathers Size Chart before placing your order. Compare your chest, shoulder, sleeve and jacket length measurements with the chart rather than choosing only by your usual clothing size.

Leather jackets are structured outerwear pieces, so the correct size depends on both your body measurements and how you want the jacket to fit.

Are Sigma Leathers jackets made from real leather?

Yes. Sigma Leathers jackets are made from real leather, designed for a premium look, natural texture and long-lasting wear.

Because leather is a natural material, each jacket may have slight variations in grain, tone and surface character. These details are not defects — they are part of what makes real leather unique.

With the right care, a Sigma Leathers jacket will soften naturally over time and develop its own character while maintaining a strong, structured silhouette.

Are Sigma Leathers jackets true to size?

Sigma Leathers jackets are designed for a clean, structured fit. Most customers can choose their regular size using the size chart as a guide.

If you are between two sizes, prefer a relaxed fit, or plan to wear thicker layers underneath, consider choosing the larger size.

What should I do if I am between two sizes?

If your measurements fall between two sizes, think about how you want the jacket to feel.

Choose the smaller size if you prefer a sharper, closer fit and will wear light layers underneath. Choose the larger size if you prefer more comfort, movement or layering room.

For shearling or heavier winter jackets, the larger size may feel more comfortable.

How should a leather jacket fit?

A leather jacket should feel structured but not restrictive. The shoulders should sit naturally, the chest should close comfortably, and the sleeves should finish around the wrist.

The jacket should not pull heavily across the chest, arms or back when zipped or buttoned.

Will my leather jacket stretch over time?

Leather may soften slightly with wear, but it should not be bought too tight expecting it to stretch dramatically.

Your jacket should feel comfortable from the beginning. Natural softening is part of the leather’s character, but the correct size should be chosen using the Sigma Leathers Size Chart.

Which style should I choose?

Choose your jacket based on how you want to wear it.

A biker jacket gives a sharp, confident look.
A bomber jacket feels more relaxed and easy to wear.
A shearling jacket is better for colder weather and heavier layering.
A leather blazer gives a refined, polished silhouette.
A casual leather jacket is versatile for everyday styling.

Are leather jackets suitable for all seasons?

Leather jackets are most suitable for autumn, winter and cooler spring days. Lighter styles can also be worn in mild weather.

Shearling jackets are better for colder conditions, while biker, bomber and casual leather jackets can be styled across more seasons depending on layering.

How do I care for my Sigma Leathers jacket?

Keep your jacket clean with a soft dry cloth. Avoid machine washing, tumble drying, bleach, harsh detergents and direct heat.

Store it on a wide hanger in a cool, dry place. For serious stains or deep cleaning, use a professional leather cleaner.

Can I wear my leather jacket in the rain?

Light rain should be handled carefully, but leather should not be soaked.

If your jacket gets wet, wipe away excess water with a soft cloth and let it dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use a heater, radiator, hair dryer or tumble dryer.

Should I condition my leather jacket?

Condition your leather jacket only when the leather feels dry. Use a small amount of suitable leather conditioner and always test it on a hidden area first.

Avoid over-conditioning, as this can make leather feel greasy, heavy or darker than intended.

How should I store my leather jacket?

Store your jacket on a wide, strong hanger. Keep it away from direct sunlight, damp areas and strong heat.

Do not fold it for long periods, and avoid plastic garment bags because they can trap moisture. A breathable garment bag is better for long-term storage.

Is natural creasing normal?

Yes. Natural creasing is part of real leather. Over time, your jacket may soften and develop a subtle patina.

These natural changes give the jacket more character and make it personal to the wearer.

Why does leather have slight texture or colour variation?

Leather is a natural material. Slight variations in grain, texture or tone are normal and should not be seen as defects.

These details are part of the character of genuine leather outerwear.

Can I iron my leather jacket?

Do not iron directly on leather. Direct heat can damage the surface and affect the shape of the jacket.

If your jacket has deep creases, hang it properly and allow it to relax naturally. For serious creasing, contact a professional leather specialist.

Can I clean my leather jacket at home?

Light surface dust can be removed with a soft dry cloth. Small marks may be gently wiped with a slightly damp cloth.

Do not soak the leather or scrub aggressively. For difficult stains, professional leather cleaning is recommended.

Can I alter a leather jacket?

Leather jackets can sometimes be altered, but they require specialist work. Standard tailoring is not always suitable for leather.

If you need an alteration, use a professional who has experience working with leather garments.

How do I know which jacket is best for my body shape?

Focus on shoulder fit, chest comfort and jacket length.

Shorter biker and café racer styles create a sharp silhouette. Bomber jackets offer a more relaxed shape. Blazers give a smarter look, while longer coats or shearling jackets provide more coverage.

Do Sigma Leathers jackets come in different sizes?

Yes. Sigma Leathers jackets are available in a range of sizes, commonly including XS, S, M, L, XL, 2X and 3X, depending on the product.

Always check the size options and size chart on the individual product page before ordering.
