The Khaite Rocco Jacket: Fit, Leather and How to Wear It

Which Rocco should you buy?
The black nappa. Rocco Jacket in Black Leather with Golden Rye Shearling. Sleek, with a soft sheen and a contrast collar that lights the face. The one for evenings and for tailoring.
The worn brown. Rocco Jacket in Dark Brown Leather with Dark Brown Shearling. The lambskin is worked and painted to look lived in from day one. The one for denim and weekends.
Fit
Khaite lists both as true to size and shows them on a 5 foot 10 model wearing a size S. The jacket is cropped, so it ends at the waist; if you plan to wear a heavy knit beneath it, stay in your normal size rather than sizing up, since the ribbed trim is designed to sit close.
How to wear the Rocco
Over a fine knit such as the Berry top with the Zimmer jean and the Irene loafer. For evening, over the Cindy leather skirt with the Marlene boot. Because the jacket stops at the waist, it pairs best with a high trouser and a midi skirt.
Care
Khaite asks for specialist cleaning. Brush the shearling collar between wears and hang the jacket on a broad hanger; the worn finish of the brown version will deepen naturally with time.
