Introducing Metis Suede
For centuries, suede has represented one of leather's most refined expressions. Created by carefully finishing the inner surface of the hide, it reveals a remarkably soft, velvety texture while preserving the natural character of leather itself.
Not all suede is created equal. Ours is Metis Suede, an exceptionally rare material, drawn from a specific sheep breed found only in Tuscan region. It is, quite simply, unlike any other suede in the industry.

Soft by Nature
Suede possesses a character unlike any other natural material. Its velvety surface invites touch, while its natural flexibility allows every garment to move effortlessly with the body. Soft yet resilient, suede combines elegance with everyday comfort, making it one of the most distinctive expressions of leather craftsmanship.

Lightness, Redefined
At around 200 grams, our Metis Suede jackets rank among the lightest in the leather industry. This is only possible through the rare combination of breed and process that defines Metis Suede, resulting in a garment that feels almost weightless without feeling insubstantial.

Crafted by Hand
Every Bigardini suede garment begins with exceptional natural leather before being individually cut, assembled and finished by skilled artisans. Particular care is taken throughout the process to preserve the unique softness and velvety texture that distinguish suede from every other leather.
The result is a timeless garment that develops character with wear while retaining the effortless elegance of one of nature's most remarkable materials.
