In collaboration with Jack Andrews—our new brand in the vintage leather luxury space. Perfectly sophisticated, but not too stuffy. Details in all the right places.
Inspired by the rugged Scottish Highlands, where ancient tales echo through mist-kissed glens, we've crafted a vest that embodies old-world luxury and timeless sophistication. A layering masterpiece woven from nature's own sheepskin leather.
Our diamond-stitched quilted pattern on olive sheepskin leather offers a rich patina that speaks of modern luxury and enduring allure. Designed with versatility in mind, this vest is the perfect companion for those crisp evenings when an extra layer is needed. The dark brown corduroy trim in the pockets and around the neck adds a touch of vintage charm, while a zippered chest pocket and two open interior pockets provide just the right amount of space for your essentials. A toggle waist cinch at the back allows you to tailor the fit—tighten it for a more refined silhouette or loosen it for a relaxed, rugged feel—giving you both form and function in one timeless piece.

How to Measure Yourself
Shopping online, as most of us do nowadays, you’ll want to know your measurements to help ensure a great fit. The sketch below shows where to take measurements to compare to clothing you already own. Keep in mind, however, those measurements will only be helpful if taken correctly. Tip: don’t let the measuring tape hang loose when you’re measuring, but avoid pulling the tape excessively tight. Here’s how to get accurate measurements:
Length: Measure from the bottom of the collar to the waist seam.
Shoulders: Measure between the top of the sleeve seams.
Chest: Measure the entire circumference of your chest. Begin with one end of the measuring tape 1 inch below the armhole at the fullest part of your chest. Then, keeping the tape level, wrap it around (under your armpits, around your shoulder blades, and back to the front) to get the measurement.
How should a leather jacket fit?
Do the same rules apply to how a jacket should fit as to other jackets or outerwear? Not necessarily. Read on for details.
Leather will stretch over time, so you never want to start with a leather jacket that is too big. But that doesn’t mean you want a jacket that’s too small! It’s also essential to allow room for layers under your leather jacket. Here are a few specific tips for finding a leather jacket that fits just right:
Chest: Leather jackets ought to fit more snugly through the chest than a regular overcoat, but consider the types of layers you may want to wear underneath. If you live in a warm climate and will be layering over light clothing such as a dress shirt or t-shirt, we recommend adding 2-3 inches to your measured chest size. If you live in a colder climate and layering over heavier clothing such as sweaters, we recommend adding 3-4 inches to your chest size. If you land between sizes, we recommend sizing up to the next size available. Tip: you should be able to comfortably zip or button your leather jacket all the way up, even if you plan to wear it open.
Shoulders: Suit coat rules do not apply to leather jackets, so it's okay if the shoulder comes down your arm a few inches. However, even though the leather will give over time if the shoulder seam is higher than your shoulder, the jacket is too small.
Waist: The bottom of your leather jacket should not reach below the bottom of your belt/top of your thigh. This is likely shorter than other overcoats you've owned, but a leather jacket that hangs well below the belt is too big unless you're wearing a long leather trench coat.

Reviews
Best Customer Service I have ever had!
"I actually meant to talk about the Customer Service I received when I ordered my Mahogany Highland Vest! I have to give incredible kudos to my customer service rep, Loretta! She stayed on top of this for me because she knew I needed it for a trip I was going on, where the weather is very cool during the day and at night! I ordered it on June 1st and received it on June 3rd, which was the day I was leaving for my trip. She made sure the shipping department sent it out that day via Express Mail, and I got it 2 days later. Is that incredible customer service or what? I mean, hands down the best I have ever had in my life! Way to go, Lorretta and Buffalo Jackson/Jack Andrews!!! :)"

Awesome Vest!
"Great leather quality and design! Love the quilt pattern, good pocket size, and nicely padded collar. As a personal preference, wish it was lighter to wear all season!"
— Larry F. (5/5)
Incredible piece of outerwear
"I just received my 4th vest from Buffalo Jackson/Jack Andrews, and this one, the Dark Brown Highland Vest, is probably my favorite. The problem with me is that every time I get another one, it is always my favorite, but I do wear the Highlands Vests the most, because of their versatility. If you want and appreciate incredible clothing quality, you must get one of these or any of the 4 I have: The Bridger, The Teton, or any of the Highland Vests. This will be the best apparel decision(s) you will ever make! Jimbo Walker"

— JIMBO W. (5/5)
Odd fit
"The fit was really odd and I had to return it. I looked at the measurements online to see if a different size would work and they change only in odd incremental ways. If it fit right, I would love to own this."
— Dallin E. (1/5)
Very classy and top quality vest
"Beautiful vest, top quality. I get comments on it everywhere I go and several people have asked where they could buy one. It's very classy and eye catching. Warm too."
— Robert S. (5/5)
Highlands Quilted Vest
"The Highlands Quilted Leather Vest is absolutely beautiful. The quality was superb! My husband usually wears XLG, and this is what I bought him. It was very snug on him. It fit, but was snug. I exchanged it for 2XLG, and bought The Bridger. It was explained to me that each vest is made different depending on the stitching and the design."
