Frankie Shop Leather Jacket Guide 2026: Viper to Faux

The best-known Frankie Shop leather jacket is the Viper, the label’s real leather jacket, listed on Coveti at $1,310. The New York label also makes real leather styles such as the Tobias and the Napa hooded jacket, and a large faux leather range. Coveti stocks the Viper in black, brown and dark plum, plus bombers and quilted jackets.

This guide compares every key leather and leather-look jacket from The Frankie Shop on Coveti, explains the difference between real and faux leather, and covers how to care for each. All prices are Coveti prices in USD.

What is the Frankie Shop Viper leather jacket?

The Viper Leather Jacket is The Frankie Shop’s signature real leather jacket.

Shoppers often search for it as “the Frankie Shop Viper oversized leather jacket”, because so much of the label is cut generously. The brand says it “became synonymous with smart, oversized suiting”, and shoppers expect the same relaxed proportions from its leather.

On Coveti the Viper comes in three colours:

• Viper Leather Jacket in Black, $1,310
• Viper Leather Jacket in Brown, $1,310
• Viper Leather Jacket in Dark Plum, $1,310

Black is the safe first buy. Brown softens the look and pairs well with denim and camel. Dark plum is the colour pick for anyone who already owns a black jacket.

Which Frankie Shop leather jackets can I buy on Coveti?

Coveti carries real leather, suede, faux leather, faux leather bombers and quilted jackets from The Frankie Shop.

Materials for the new pieces come from the brand’s composition labels. For established styles we list what the product name tells you; the full composition is on each product page.

What other real leather jackets does The Frankie Shop make?

Beyond the Viper, the main real leather options are the Tobias, the Napa and the suede Hartford.

The Tobias Leather Jacket in Black ($960) is the lower-priced real leather choice. The Napa Leather Hooded Jacket in Black ($2,090) adds a hood, which makes it more of a coat replacement than a layer. The Hartford Suede Short Jacket in Dark Camel ($1,040) brings in suede, the classic partner for denim.

New this season, the Gina Fur Bomber Jacket in Camel ($3,110) is listed as 100% lamb leather and made in Turkiye. It is the most expensive jacket in the edit and sits closer to a winter coat. See our Frankie Shop coat guide for the other fur and shearling pieces.

Which Frankie Shop faux leather jacket should I buy?

Choose a faux leather jacket by shape: a classic jacket, a bomber and a padded style each do a different job.

Classic faux leather jackets

The Enora Faux Leather Jacket in Black ($660) is the simplest entry point. The Prescott Faux Leather Jacket in Burgundy ($820) brings in colour, and it also comes in black and moss green.

Faux leather bombers

The Hudson Faux Leather Bomber Jacket in Black ($840) is the everyday bomber. The new Cloud Faux Leather Bomber Jacket in Ecru ($620) is 50% viscose, 45% polyurethane and 5% metal, made in China, and the pale colour makes it a spring jacket as much as an autumn one. The Kodai, Alena and Glane bombers fill out the range.

Padded faux leather

The new Val Faux Leather Padded Jacket in Black ($670) is 100% polyurethane, made in China, and also comes in army green. Padding adds warmth, so the Val works on cold days without a coat on top.

If you like the faux leather look in a longer length, the new Limay Faux Leather Short Trench is covered in our Frankie Shop trench coat guide.

Does The Frankie Shop make a quilted jacket?

Yes. Coveti stocks two quilted jackets and a quilted bomber from The Frankie Shop.

The Elmont Brushed Wool Quilted Jacket in Dark Navy ($920) is the smarter of the two and also comes in brown. The Teddy Quilted Jacket in Brown ($633) is the casual option. The Zion Quilted Bomber Jacket in Black ($408) is the lowest-priced of the three.

Leather vs faux leather: which is better?

Real leather costs more and changes with wear; faux leather costs less and asks for less care.

Real leather, such as the Viper and the Tobias, softens and creases to the wearer over time. It needs occasional conditioning and should be kept away from heat and long periods of damp. Faux leather, such as the Enora, Hudson, Cloud and Val, looks the same on day one as it does months later, and it is lighter on the budget. It will not develop the same patina, and polyurethane can crack with age if it is stored folded.

Always follow the care label inside the jacket first. For a fuller view of materials and make, read is The Frankie Shop good quality.

How should a Frankie Shop leather jacket fit?

It should feel roomy through the body without the shoulder seam falling far past your own shoulder.

Many Frankie Shop pieces carry an “Oversized fit” label on the brand site, and the brand gives no general advice to size down. Start with your usual letter size, check the size guide on each Coveti product page, and use our Frankie Shop size guide for the full conversion chart. The brand’s chart maps XS to XL to UK 6 to 14 and US 2 to 10.

How do you style a Frankie Shop leather jacket?

Treat it like a blazer: wear it over tailoring as often as over denim.

• A black Viper over a grey knit and pleated trousers is the label’s city uniform.
• A brown Viper with straight blue jeans and a white tee is the weekend version.
• A faux leather bomber over a slip skirt balances a soft fabric with a hard one.
• A slim belt, such as the new Italian leather belts in our Frankie Shop accessories guide, finishes the trouser underneath.
