This vintage Express “Avenue de l’Opera” jacket features a striking patchwork design made from genuine suede and leather panels in warm earth tones. The mix of browns, tans, and creams creates a rich, dimensional look that feels both classic and unexpected.
Originally produced in the 1990s, it carries that unmistakable vintage character — structured leather, soft suede, and a silhouette that feels effortlessly cool today. The patchwork construction and cowhide accents give it a subtle Western influence while still feeling timeless and wearable.
It’s the kind of jacket that instantly becomes the centerpiece of an outfit — layered over denim and a tee, or paired with trousers and boots for a more polished look.
