Custom Leather Jacket Manufacturer

Sialkot has made leather goods for a century, and it is one of the few places where a 50-piece leather jacket order is normal rather than a favour. Genuine leather from a tannery you can audit, cut by hand, with hardware that matches the price point.

We manufacture custom leather jackets in genuine cowhide, sheepskin (lambskin) and goatskin, or in PU and vegan leather, with quilted or satin linings, YKK metal hardware, and classic biker, bomber, racer, varsity and trucker patterns or your own design. As a custom leather jacket manufacturer, Mike Apparel runs 50-piece minimums, samples every style before bulk and turns production in 2–3 weeks, with your labels sewn in at the factory.

Fabrics we run for jackets

We hold these fabrics for jackets and knit or weave others to spec. Each has a different hand, drape and shrink profile, and the sample stage exists so you can feel the difference before committing 50 pieces to it. If you are unsure, sample the leather jacket in Sheepskin / lambskin 0.8–1.0 mm first; it is the construction we recommend for soft, premium fashion leather.

Fit options for jackets

Pick a starting silhouette and we adjust from there. Blocks are graded XS to 3XL in US sizing, and size-set samples are available for brands that want to check the whole run. For a leather jacket, we usually sample the biker / moto jacket with asymmetric zip first and adjust from there.

• Biker / moto jacket with asymmetric zip
• Leather bomber
• Cafe racer
• Leather varsity or trucker jacket

What is inside the seams

The stitch, rib, thread and hardware choices below are what separate a factory jacket from a promotional blank. All are standard on our runs. On a leather jacket the detail buyers notice first is the hand-cut panels matched for grain and shade.

• Hand-cut panels matched for grain and shade
• YKK metal zips, snaps and buckles
• Quilted or satin viscose lining, bagged
• Bar-tacked stress points, taped seams on lining
• Leather tested for colourfastness and tear strength

Embellishment and wash

Every embellishment listed here is produced in our own print, embroidery and wash departments in Sialkot. Panels are decorated before assembly where placement demands it. For leather jacket decoration, embossed or debossed logos leads, followed by laser-engraved leather patches.

• Embossed or debossed logos
• Laser-engraved leather patches
• Embroidery on the shell or lining
• Painted and screen-printed leather
• Studs, chains and custom hardware

Your label on every jacket

Your brand, not ours, is on the finished jacket. We sew in woven neck labels, size tabs and care labels to your artwork, attach hang tags and pack in branded poly bags or boxes. No Mike Apparel branding appears anywhere on the product. Our private label clothing page covers label options and minimums. A typical leather jacket run carries a woven main label, printed care label and hang tag; genuine leather jacket programmes often add a woven hem loop.

Minimum order and quantities for a custom jacket

Every custom jacket run starts at 50 pieces per design and colourway, sizes mixed however you like. Order more and the per-piece cost comes down, because cutting, sampling and setup are spread over a bigger run — that’s true whether you’re ordering jackets on their own or alongside other products. For reference, a leather jacket run of 50 pieces in Sheepskin / lambskin 0.8–1.0 mm with one embroidery and private labels is a typical starting spec.

We quote every order individually once we know the spec, so nothing here is a placeholder number. Ask for a quote and you’ll have real figures within a day, including DDP shipping to your address. A first leather jacket run ships DDP, so the number you're quoted is the number that lands at your door, nothing added at customs.

From brief to delivery

From brief to delivered jackets, this is the sequence and the timing. Total time from first enquiry to goods at your door is usually five to six weeks including sampling. A first leather jacket order usually moves from brief to delivered goods in five to six weeks.

1. Brief and quote (24 hours)Send a tech pack, sketch or reference jacket with target quantity. We reply with fabric options, MOQ and a per-piece quote.
2. Pre-production sample (7–10 days)One jacket in your fabric, fit, colour and branding. Revisions until approved. Read about the sampling process.
3. Approval and depositSign off the sample and size set; 50% deposit reserves fabric and the production slot.

5. QC and DDP shipping (4–7 days by air)Inspection against the approved sample, then DDP delivery with duties paid. See our full timeline guide.

US and international delivery

Most of our jacket production ships to the United States, DDP, meaning duties, taxes and customs clearance are paid by us and included in the quote. Air freight lands in New York or Chicago in four to seven days after the run ships; sea freight takes four to five weeks and costs less for larger orders. We also ship to the UK, Canada, Australia, the EU and the UAE. See streetwear manufacturing for USA brands and our DDP shipping page. A 50-piece leather jacket order fits in a few cartons and clears US customs as one DDP consignment with a single commercial invoice.
