Vegan Leather Construction & Quality

Vegan Leather Construction & Quality

We construct the Truth by Republic faux leather jacket using advanced polyurethane materials that replicate the supple texture and natural grain of genuine leather. The breathable composite allows air circulation while maintaining water resistance, making this jacket suitable for unpredictable weather.

Our quality control process ensures consistent thickness and color saturation across every panel. The quilted shoulder reinforcements use double-stitched seams that distribute stress evenly, preventing premature wear in high-movement areas. The same attention to detail found in our women’s jacket collection carries through to every hardware component, from YKK zippers to rust-resistant snap buttons.


Sizing & Fit Guide

Sizing & Fit Guide

The truth by republic faux leather jacket runs true to size with a tailored fit through the shoulders and torso. We recommend ordering your regular size for a streamlined look, or sizing up one increment if you prefer layering thick sweaters underneath.

The adjustable waist belt accommodates a range of body types and allows you to modify the silhouette from relaxed to cinched. Sleeve lengths are designed for average proportions — if you typically need petite or tall sizing in outerwear, consider that when selecting your size.


Care & Maintenance Instructions

Care & Maintenance Instructions

Proper care extends the lifespan of your truth by republic faux leather jacket significantly. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth after wear to remove surface dust and prevent buildup in textured areas. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution applied with a soft sponge, then wipe clean with fresh water.

Avoid machine washing, dry cleaning solvents, and harsh chemicals that can break down the polyurethane coating. Never expose the jacket to direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as high temperatures can cause cracking and stiffness.

Perfect weight for year-round wear
I was worried this jacket would be too heavy or stiff, but it’s surprisingly lightweight and moves with me. The vegan leather feels high-quality and doesn’t have that plastic-y look some faux materials have. I’ve worn it at least twice a week since it arrived and it still looks brand new.

Great fit through the shoulders
As someone with broader shoulders, I often struggle with jacket fit, but this one is perfect. The quilted shoulder panels don’t restrict movement at all. I ordered my usual medium and the waist belt lets me adjust the fit exactly how I want it. Super happy with this purchase.

Looks way more expensive than it is
Multiple people have asked me where I got this jacket and assumed it cost way more than I paid. The hardware is substantial and the stitching is clean throughout. I appreciate the interior pockets — finally a jacket where I can actually store my phone and keys securely.

Versatile addition to my wardrobe
I wear this with everything from workout leggings to work dresses. It instantly elevates casual outfits and adds edge to more polished looks. My only minor critique is that the sleeves are slightly long on me at 5’3″, but I just push them up slightly and it works fine.

Easy to care for
I was nervous about maintaining faux leather, but this jacket is so easy to clean. A quick wipe-down after wearing it out keeps it looking fresh. No special products needed. After two months of regular wear, it still looks exactly like it did on day one.

Comfortable from first wear
Some jackets need breaking in, but this one felt comfortable immediately. The lining is smooth and doesn’t catch on my clothes when I put it on or take it off. The vegan leather is soft but still has structure, so it doesn’t wrinkle or lose shape when I sit down.

Common Questions About the Truth by Republic Faux Leather Jacket

The vegan leather maintains its original shape and structure with proper care. Unlike genuine leather that develops patina and stretches with wear, the polyurethane material retains consistent dimensions and appearance.

The adjustable waist belt provides flexibility for fit customization without relying on material stretch. If you prefer a looser fit for layering, we recommend ordering one size up rather than expecting the jacket to stretch.

Yes, the vegan leather offers water resistance suitable for light rain and drizzle. The polyurethane coating naturally repels moisture, preventing immediate absorption.

For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, we recommend additional waterproof outerwear, as seams and zipper areas may eventually allow water penetration. After wearing in wet conditions, wipe the jacket down with a dry cloth and allow it to air dry away from direct heat.

The truth by republic faux leather jacket follows our standard sizing across the women’s outerwear collection. If you own other jackets from our brand and they fit well, order the same size.

This style has a more tailored fit through the torso compared to our relaxed utility jacket styles. The structured shoulders maintain their shape rather than draping, so if you typically size up for shoulder room, consider that when ordering.

The polyester lining provides moderate breathability suitable for spring and fall temperatures. Air circulates through the material better than heavy insulated linings, but the jacket will retain more warmth than unlined options.

For summer wear, we recommend this jacket for evening outings or air-conditioned environments rather than all-day warm weather use. The vegan leather exterior has micro-perforations that allow some airflow while maintaining the material’s structure.

We use corrosion-resistant alloy hardware with a protective gunmetal finish designed to maintain its appearance through regular wear. The zippers, snaps, and belt buckle resist tarnishing under normal conditions.

Avoid exposing hardware to harsh chemicals, salt water, or abrasive cleaners. If you notice minor dulling over time, gently buff with a soft jewelry cloth to restore shine. The finish is substantially more durable than standard plated hardware.

Professional tailors experienced with synthetic materials can perform basic alterations like hemming or sleeve shortening. Inform your tailor that the jacket is vegan leather, as standard sewing techniques may require adjustment.

Avoiding alterations that require removing and reattaching the lining, as this significantly increases complexity. The waist belt provides built-in fit customization that may eliminate the need for body alterations. Consult with your tailor before purchasing if you anticipate needing significant modifications.

We accept returns within 30 days of delivery for unworn items with original tags attached. The jacket must be in resalable condition with all included accessories.

We provide free return shipping on exchanges for different sizes. Refunds are processed within 5-7 business days of receiving your return at our warehouse. Visit our returns center or contact customer service to initiate your return and receive a prepaid shipping label.
