EPOCA UOMO × Y’2 LEATHER Collaboration

EPOCA UOMO × Y’2 LEATHER Collaboration – 20th Anniversary Project (2nd Edition)

As part of Sanyo Shokai’s 20th anniversary celebration for EPOCA UOMO, a special collaboration with Y’2 LEATHER will be featured in the PRIMA COLLECTION.

When we first received this proposal, we were truly surprised—but also deeply honored—so we gladly accepted the opportunity.

The Collaboration Items

This collection consists of two exclusive items:

A horsehide rider’s jacket

A mini Boston bag

Rider’s Jacket

The rider’s jacket is crafted from aniline horsehide, a leather finished without any pigments, allowing for both transparency and depth of color. The design reflects EPOCA UOMO’s signature understated elegance, accented with sharp zipper detailing.

Only the finest hides were selected—large, thick, and virtually free of imperfections. From 100 hides, only about 30% met our strict standards, making this material exceptionally rare.

While the leather retains a natural thickness of around 1.5mm, it has been carefully thinned to 0.8mm to significantly improve comfort and wearability. This enables precise cutting and sewing of the jacket’s refined pattern.

The chosen color is “Cherry”—a deep, lustrous hue enhanced by the unique clarity of aniline finishing, resulting in a refined and sophisticated look.
We invite you to try it on yourself—you will immediately appreciate the silhouette’s beauty and the harmony between material and design.

Mini Boston Bag

The mini Boston bag is crafted from HV Horse, a horsehide finished with wax treatment (paraffin) for a rich, natural gloss. Like the jacket, this leather is dye-finished without pigments, ensuring a vibrant and authentic texture.

The lining features EPOCA UOMO’s original monogram fabric, while all metal parts—including D-rings and rivets—are finished in black to enhance its elegant character.
