Chaps Leather Car Jacket

Editors Notes

Black leather zip-front jacket with a pointed collar, horizontal yoke seams, and slanted hand pockets; fully lined in a tan/brown houndstooth-style check for a classic preppy touch.

Chaps is a Ralph Lauren-linked label that rose to prominence for bringing an accessible, all-American preppy look to everyday wardrobes. Leather zip jackets like this became a staple from the late 1980s through the 1990s, combining clean, city-ready lines with durable, wear-in-the-better patina. The checked lining nods to traditional tailoring, a hallmark detail that keeps these pieces feeling elevated rather than purely rugged. Today, vintage leather outerwear is back in heavy rotation thanks to the revival of ’90s minimalism and the push toward longer-lasting, sustainable wardrobe staples.
