Avirex Black Iconic Studded Leather Jacket

Avirex Black Iconic Studded Leather Jacket - Limited Edition

The Avirex Black Iconic Studded Leather Jacket is crafted from soft 1.0mm goatskin and finished with dark metallic studs across the collar, sleeves, pockets and back artwork. Tonal Avirex branding, black knitted rib, a soft 70% cotton and 30% polyester lining, and an approximate weight of 1.6–1.8kg give this jacket a substantial but wearable feel. It has a regular fit; choose one size larger for an oversized look.

A Black Leather Jacket with Detail in Every Direction

The first impression is clean and monochrome. Look closer, however, and the stud placement, shaped leather panels and tonal Avirex artwork become much more noticeable.

Rather than covering the jacket with bright colours, the design uses black leather, dark embroidery and gunmetal-style studs to create depth. The studs follow the jacket’s construction instead of appearing randomly scattered. They trace the collar, sleeves and pocket welts before becoming part of the oversized branding across the back.

This balance makes the jacket expressive without limiting how it can be styled. It can be worn as the main feature of a monochrome outfit or used to add a harder edge to simple denim and trainers.

Soft 1.0mm Goatskin Leather

The exterior is made from genuine goatskin leather with an approximate thickness of 1.0mm.

Goatskin is naturally suited to fashion outerwear because it combines flexibility with good resistance to regular wear. At 1.0mm, the leather is substantial enough to support the studs and large back appliqués while remaining more manageable than an extremely thick, rigid hide.

The gallery shows a smooth black finish with a gentle natural sheen. Light creates subtle changes across the surface, making the shaped panels and seams visible even though the stitching and leather are almost entirely black.

Because this is genuine leather, small differences in grain and texture can occur between jackets. Those variations are part of the natural material rather than evidence of damage.

Stud Placement and Metal Detailing

The studs are used as a structural design element throughout the jacket.

Studded Leather Collar

The jacket has a structured turn-down point collar. Small round studs are arranged across the collar, including along the outer edge and towards the collar points.

The dark metal finish works with the black leather instead of producing a bright silver contrast. Tonal topstitching around the collar helps it retain a clean, defined shape.

Studded Sleeves

Individual studs run down the sleeves, particularly around the outer arm and shaped seam lines. Their spacing allows areas of smooth leather to remain visible between each metal detail.

This placement also draws attention to the length and shape of the sleeves when viewed from the front, side or back.

Studded Pocket Welts

Both front pockets are framed by narrow leather welts decorated with a straight row of studs. This reinforces the angled pocket openings visually without introducing a contrasting material.

Studded Back Lettering

The largest concentration of studs appears on the back. Raised black “AVIREX” lettering curves across the shoulders, with a central crest and “USA” lettering underneath.

Studs are positioned within and around the letters, making the black-on-black artwork easier to read. The effect becomes more noticeable as light reaches the metal details from different angles.

Tonal Avirex Branding

The Avirex branding remains almost entirely black, allowing texture and relief to define it.

A tonal crest appears on the wearer’s left chest. The gallery shows a layered, embroidered-style emblem that sits close to the leather instead of using a bright contrasting patch.

The back carries a much larger composition:

• Curved Avirex lettering across the upper back

• A central circular shield-style crest

• Large USA lettering beneath the crest

• Dark metallic studs placed through the lettering

• Tonal stitching around the appliqué edges

• A black-on-black finish across the complete design

The result is recognisable branding that does not interrupt the jacket’s monochrome appearance.

Collar, Panels and Stitching

Point Collar

The leather point collar creates a sharper neckline than a traditional knitted bomber collar. Its studded surface connects the front and back decoration while keeping the jacket structured around the neck.

Raglan-Style Shoulder Panels

Diagonal seams run from the collar area towards the underarms, creating a raglan-inspired shoulder construction. This gives the upper body a rounded bomber shape and separates the sleeves from the central back panel.

Central Back Panel

The main back artwork is contained within a large rectangular leather panel. A vertical centre seam divides this section, while a horizontal seam runs beneath the USA lettering.

This panel arrangement keeps the large design organised and gives additional structure to the back.

Sleeve Panels

The sleeves use long shaped panels with visible tonal stitching. Studs follow the outer sections, while cleaner leather remains along the inner arm.

Front Construction

The front uses broad, uninterrupted leather panels on either side of the central zipper. This clean surface provides space for the tonal chest emblem and prevents the front from competing with the heavily decorated back.

The stitching is predominantly black and remains close to the leather colour. More information about garment construction is available on our craftsmanship page.

Dark Metal Front Zipper

A full-length black or dark metallic zipper runs through the centre.

The gallery shows a substantial ring-style zipper pull that can be gripped easily. Tonal leather facings sit along both sides of the closure, maintaining a clean vertical line from the collar to the hem.

No snap-button storm flap covers the zipper, so the fastening remains visible as part of the front design.

Two Angled Welt Pockets

Two angled welt pockets are positioned on the lower front.

Each opening is edged with a separate leather strip decorated with round studs. The slanted placement follows the natural direction of the hands and suits the relaxed bomber shape.

No pocket zippers or snap closures are visible in the gallery. Carry small valuables carefully unless an additional secure inside pocket is confirmed.

Knitted Rib Cuffs and Hem

Black knitted rib is used at the cuffs and hem.

The cuffs fit closer around the wrists and provide flexibility where a leather edge would feel restrictive. At the front hem, ribbed sections sit on either side of a central leather section aligned with the zipper. Across the back, the ribbing forms a wider waistband that draws the lower edge closer to the body.

These details give the jacket its bomber-inspired finish and help balance the broader shoulders and sleeves.

Soft Cotton-Blend Interior

The inside is finished with a soft fabric lining made from:

• 70% cotton

• 30% polyester

Cotton contributes softness and a more natural feel against clothing, while polyester adds strength and helps the lining retain its shape.

This is a fabric lining rather than a heavy quilted or insulated layer. The jacket should therefore not be described as thermal winter wear unless additional insulation is added or confirmed.

Weight and Everyday Wear

Depending on size, the jacket weighs approximately 1.6kg to 1.8kg.

The leather, metal studs, back appliqués, zipper and knitted trims all contribute to its substantial feel. Smaller sizes will generally fall towards the lower end of the weight range, while larger sizes may be closer to 1.8kg.

Despite that weight, the soft goatskin should provide more natural movement than a similarly decorated jacket made from thick, rigid cowhide.

Studded areas may feel firmer than plain leather because the metal hardware and appliqués reduce flexibility in those sections.

Regular and Oversized Fit Options

The intended cut is a regular fit.

The gallery shows:

• A defined but not tight shoulder line

• Moderate space through the chest

• Room through the sleeves

• A waist-length bomber hem

• Knitted rib that sits closer at the wrists and waist

Choose your normal size for the intended regular silhouette.

For an oversized fit, select one size larger. Sizing up should provide more room through the chest, shoulders and sleeves while preserving the cropped bomber-style hem.

Do not choose an oversized size based only on height. Measure your chest and compare it with the product measurements first. The live product page currently displays XS through 5XL, although availability may change.

Styling the Jacket

For a monochrome outfit, wear the jacket with a plain black T-shirt, straight black trousers and minimal leather trainers. The difference between smooth fabric, soft goatskin and metal studs prevents the outfit from appearing flat.

Blue or washed-grey denim creates a more relaxed look. Keep the top underneath simple so that the collar, chest crest and studded pocket details remain visible.

For an oversized streetwear silhouette, choose one size larger and combine the jacket with wide-leg trousers, a sweatshirt and heavier trainers.

Because the back already has large studded artwork, avoid carrying a backpack with rough straps directly over it. Repeated friction can scratch the leather, loosen studs or wear the appliqué edges.

Care for the Leather and Studs

A studded leather jacket requires attention to both the goatskin and the attached hardware.

• Remove surface dust with a soft, dry cloth.

• Do not scrub the studs or appliqué edges with a stiff brush.

• Use only a conditioner suitable for black goatskin.

• Test all care products in an inconspicuous area first.

• Apply conditioner sparingly and keep it away from the fabric lining.

• Wipe around the studs instead of saturating them with product.

• Check the studs occasionally for movement or looseness.

• Do not attempt to tighten studs with household tools unless you understand their fastening method.

• Keep the jacket away from heavy rain.

• Blot accidental moisture without rubbing.

• Allow damp leather to dry naturally at room temperature.

• Never use a radiator, hair dryer or tumble dryer.

• Do not machine wash or iron the jacket.

• Store it on a broad hanger that supports the shoulders.

• Avoid folding the studded back design for extended periods.

• Use a breathable garment cover rather than sealed plastic.

• Consult a professional leather cleaner for deep stains or damaged hardware.
