Why 80% off?
For years we made one kind of jacket: the one you reach for every morning without thinking about it, cut to sit right on the shoulders, with a collar that keeps its shape. John Wayde is closing its doors, and the jackets still on the rail are going at a fraction of what they cost us. The shop is still open and every order still ships as usual — but there is no next season and no restock.
Description
The Dalton has a clean, structured cut that feels light enough for all-day wear. It pairs just as well with chinos at the office as with denim on weekends. On cold mornings it layers smoothly over a crewneck.
- Clean minimalist silhouette
- Premium leather (PU) finish
- Lightweight feel
- Structured construction
Material & care: Premium leather (PU). Wipe clean with a damp cloth and hang dry.
Fit & sizing
Sized by chest: measure around the fullest part of your chest and pick the size in the guide.
Between two sizes, or if you like to wear a sweater or a hoodie under it, take the larger one.
Care
- Brush off or wipe clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
- Hang it on a wide hanger so the shoulders keep their shape.
- Keep it away from direct heat and strong sun — never dry it on a radiator.
- Do not machine wash, bleach or tumble dry.

How to measure your chest
1. Stand relaxed with your arms down, wearing a thin top.
2. Wrap a soft tape around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms.
3. Keep the tape level and snug, not tight.
4. Match your measurement to the table. The values are chest measurements, not the jacket's own size.
Choosing between sizes
– Between two sizes: take the larger one.
– Wearing a sweater or a hoodie under it: take the larger one.
– Slim build and you like a close fit: take the smaller one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the closing sale, sizing and returns.
