OUR HERITAGE
Shaped by the American West
Akers jackets are influenced by the landscapes, work
ethic, and individuality of the American West.
Behind the Scenes
Built the Way We Live
Akers was built hand-in-hand with the people we love. From first sketches to final stitches, we built this brand the way we live: with heart. See the story behind the story.
THE CRAFT
Built One at a Time, The Way Things Used to Be Made
Every hide is selected by hand. Nothing is automated - because excellence can’t be automated.
OUR VALUE
Each jacket starts with one hand-selected hide, then is designed—cut, lined, and finished—around its natural character.
Hair-On Full-Grain Cowhide
Each hide is selected individually for its temper, texture, markings, and
pattern.
DESIGNED AROUND THE HIDE
The cut, liner, trim, and details are determined by the hide itself.
INTENTIONALLY SOURCED
Full-grain hides are selected for natural character and put to lasting use.
Japanese cupro lining
Lined in premium Japanese cupro for breathability, drape, and silky touch.

Design Notes
The Mescalero is calm in tone and wild in origin. The hide was chosen for its quiet variation—beige, cream, and natural fade working together. Nothing here is forced or corrected. What you see is exactly what the hide wanted to be. The classic bomber cut keeps it grounded and wearable, while the bone cupro lining and camel trim add warmth and balance. It’s an easy jacket with depth—meant to be lived in.
Like you—there’s only one.
Made in the USA.
Each year, over 135 million cowhides go to waste — burned or landfilled.
We use what would otherwise be discarded and turn it into something timeless.
