W5472 Sport Jacket - Black Over-Crop Nappa Leather Body Cloth Sleeves Zip Closure Drawstring Hem Women's Italian
Nappa Leather Body. Cloth Sleeves. Zip Closure. The Crop Jacket Where Leather Meets Cloth at the Shoulder — Inverted.
The W5472 is an over-crop jacket in nappa leather — 100% genuine leather body — fully lined in 100% polyester, with cloth sleeves (87% polyester, 12% rayon, 1% elastane), a zip closure, pockets, and a drawstring hem. The material logic is the inverse of the W5508 coat: where the W5508 has a cloth body and nappa leather sleeves, the W5472 has a nappa leather body and cloth sleeves. The contrast at the shoulder seam is the same — two completely different materials meeting at the shoulder — but the reading is different: the leather is the dominant material, the cloth sleeves the contrast. Made in Italy by LA HAINE INSIDE US.
Why This Jacket Is Different
- Nappa Leather Body: 100% genuine nappa leather — the body of the jacket is in nappa leather, smooth and supple, the leather soft and fluid rather than stiff. The nappa leather body creates a jacket that reads as leather from the front and the back, the smooth, slightly reflective surface of the nappa visible across the crop silhouette. Nappa leather develops a patina over time — the leather softening and conforming to the body with wear, the surface becoming uniquely marked by the life of the person wearing it.
- Cloth Sleeves: 87% polyester, 12% rayon, 1% elastane — the sleeves of the jacket are constructed from cloth rather than the nappa leather of the body. The cloth sleeves are structured and matte, the rayon content (12%) adding natural drape and softness to the polyester base. The contrast between the smooth, supple, slightly reflective nappa leather body and the structured, matte cloth sleeve is maximum — two completely different materials meeting at the shoulder seam. The cloth sleeves allow more freedom of movement than leather sleeves would.
- Over-Crop Silhouette: The jacket is cut short — the hem falling above the natural waist, the over-crop silhouette creating a deliberate proportion. The drawstring hem allows the crop to be cinched or left open, adjusting the silhouette at the hem.
- Drawstring Hem: A drawstring at the hem that allows the bottom of the jacket to be cinched or left open — cinched, the drawstring creates a defined hem and a more fitted crop; open, the hem falls freely in the over-crop silhouette.
- Zip Closure: A full-length zip that closes the jacket from hem to collar — the zip maintaining the clean, unbroken silhouette of the nappa leather front.
- Made in Italy: Nappa leather construction, cloth sleeve finishing, and all construction completed in Italy under LA HAINE INSIDE US’s atelier standards.
W5472 vs. W5508: Inverted Material Logic
The W5472 and W5508 share the same material contrast — nappa leather and cloth meeting at the shoulder seam — but with inverted logic. The W5508 is a slim-fit coat with a cloth body and nappa leather sleeves: the cloth is dominant, the leather is the contrast at the arm. The W5472 is an over-crop jacket with a nappa leather body and cloth sleeves: the leather is dominant, the cloth is the contrast at the arm. The same two materials, the same shoulder seam contrast, but the reading is reversed. Choose the W5508 for a cloth coat with leather sleeves; choose the W5472 for a leather jacket with cloth sleeves.

The Moment You Put It On
The nappa leather body is immediately smooth and supple — the leather soft against the hands, the surface slightly reflective, the over-crop silhouette precise and deliberate. The zip closes the front from hem to collar; the drawstring at the hem allows the crop to be cinched or left open. The cloth sleeves are structured and matte — the contrast at the shoulder seam visible and tactile: smooth, supple, slightly reflective nappa leather body meeting structured, matte cloth sleeve.
The over-crop hem falls above the natural waist — the jacket short and deliberate, the nappa leather body visible across the full crop silhouette. The W5472 is a leather jacket with cloth sleeves — the inverse of the W5508, the same material contrast, the leather dominant.
The Art of Nappa Leather
Nappa leather is a full-grain leather — the outermost layer of the hide, with the natural grain surface intact. Nappa leather is specifically processed to be soft and supple — the tanning and finishing process creating a leather that is fluid and conforming rather than stiff and structured. In the W5472, the nappa leather body is smooth and supple, the leather following the body with a fluid quality that contrasts with the structured cloth sleeves. Nappa leather develops a patina over time — the leather softening and conforming to the body with wear, the surface becoming uniquely marked by the life of the person wearing it.
How to Wear It
- Drawstring Cinched: Cinch the drawstring for a defined crop hem — the nappa leather body precise and deliberate, the over-crop silhouette more fitted.
- Drawstring Open: Leave the drawstring open for a relaxed crop — the nappa leather body falling freely at the hem, the over-crop silhouette more relaxed.
- Over High-Waisted Pieces: Wear over high-waisted trousers or a skirt — the over-crop jacket creating a deliberate proportion above the high waist.
- All Black: Combine with other black pieces — the nappa leather body and cloth sleeves create natural variation within an all-black palette, the material contrast visible at the shoulder.
Care Instructions
- Leather body: wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth; condition periodically with a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness and support patina development
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry — water immersion will damage the nappa leather body
- Do not iron the nappa leather body — heat will damage the leather surface
- Cloth sleeves: dry clean recommended to preserve the cloth structure
- Store hung on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight — UV exposure can fade the nappa leather
