Sabatini Merino Wool & Leather Panel Jacket, Ribbed Knit Moto Style (Made in NZ, Size S)

Purchase Protection & Refund Policy

A beautifully constructed Sabatini jacket that blends soft merino wool with structured leather panels, creating a striking contrast between fluid knit and architectural form. Crafted in New Zealand, this piece embodies understated sophistication with a distinctly modern edge. The body features smooth leather paneling across the front, cut with subtle diagonal stitching that adds dimension. In contrast, the sleeves and side panels are rendered in ribbed merino wool, offering both stretch and comfort while sculpting the silhouette. The high neckline and full zip closure give it a slightly utilitarian, almost moto-inspired feel, while the slim fit keeps it elegant and feminine. It sits close to the body, making it ideal for layering or wearing as a statement piece on its own. This is a versatile wardrobe piece that sits somewhere between a jacket and a structured knit, perfect for transitional weather or elevating everyday outfits. Fabric & Details Merino wool knit: soft, breathable, naturally insulating Leather panels: smooth, structured, adds polish and contrast Ribbed sleeves: stretch fit, flattering and comfortable Zip front closure: clean and minimal Pair with tailored black trousers and ankle boots for a sleek, monochrome look. Wear over a simple tee with denim and sneakers, the jacket does all the work. Style under a long wool coat with a scarf for texture-on-texture contrast. Combine with a slip dress and heeled boots for a refined but slightly edgy outfit. This piece sits at the intersection of modern minimalism and urban tailoring. The juxtaposition of tactile merino knit against structured leather gives it a quiet complexity, refined but not boring. It’s the kind of garment that elevates basics. Not trend-driven, but very much aligned with a timeless “architectural” aesthetic. Please compare your measurements with the ones provided below, as sizing may vary between different manufacturers.
