How it works

From the leather to your shoulder
and you wear it for decades.

01
You are building your jacket

In the showroom, by video call, or remotely. Leather, colors, collar, sleeve cuffs, lining, lengths. Every detail is decided with Jérôme—not in a form.

02
The workshop manufactures in Paris

40 pieces cut from a hide chosen for you. A craftsman supervises the assembly from start to finish. Jérôme is in the workshop every day.

03
You wear it for decades

Leather patinas with wear. It molds to your shape and develops a unique color. Not a seasonal purchase—a piece that gets better every year.

What they're saying

They are happy with their jacket.

★★★★★

"I had been following the publications for some time and was eagerly awaiting my trip to Paris to see the pieces in person. The experience confirmed everything I thought. The leathers are remarkable, both high-end, ethical, and respectful. The jackets and blousons are distinguished by a clean, elegant, and timeless style, with an exceptional level of finish down to the lining. The reception is a reflection of the products: demanding and passionate. The advice is fair, precise, and perfectly adapted. You can feel a true culture of leather and well-made work. An address I wholeheartedly recommend."

"I discovered Atelier Bertrand online while searching for a brand or manufacturer of leather jackets, hoping to find THE JACKET, that beautiful, special piece that stands out. I've been buying leather jackets for over 25 years – Schott, Chevignon, Redskins, Marlboro… And now, I've just bought my 4th jacket; it's incredible. The leather truly catches the light, it even seems iridescent. The quality is truly amazing, magnificent! Jérôme is passionate and available. I don't need to look any further…"

"I had been looking for a quality leather jacket in a color other than black for some time. I came across a military green plonge lambskin jacket and immediately fell in love. The feel of the leather is incredibly soft, unlike anything I had ever experienced before, and I've received numerous compliments. Jerome gives excellent advice, and I'll definitely contact him again in the future for a deer leather jacket!"

"Following the article published on Comme Un Camion, I made an appointment to discover the different jackets and colors. I chose a shirt collar to which I added a sheepskin collar for more character. The quality is exceptional, I'm delighted!"

"In my search for a sleek and chic perfecto-style jacket, I met Jerome, who was able to create the jacket I had in mind. No chest zip, but instead a blazer-style chest pocket for this brown perfecto that I love to wear."

Frequently Asked Questions

All we are often asked.

Do I have to come to the showroom?

No. Everything can be done remotely — video calls, WhatsApp, samples sent on request. Many clients are in other regions of France or abroad. The showroom is an option, not an obligation.

How long does it take from order to delivery?

4 to 6 weeks for a custom jacket. Within 48 hours for an in-stock jacket. A precise date will be sent by email once the order is confirmed.

How are the sleeve and jacket lengths handled?

They are defined with you at the time of order — in the showroom, via video call, or by exchanging measurements — then integrated into the manufacturing process. Your jacket arrives in the correct dimensions on the first delivery. Length alterations are offered free of charge.

Why is this price so much lower than that of the big brands?

Same quality of materials, same artisanal craftsmanship—but no physical stores, no massive advertising budget, no intermediaries. You pay for the leather and the artisan, nothing else.

Are the accessories customizable?

Yes – belts and cardholders are available in several colours and leathers. Belts are made to the nearest centimeter.

Can I give an Atelier Bertrand jacket as a gift?

Absolutely. Gift certificates are available. The recipient receives a customization appointment to choose their model and options—this is often the most appreciated gift.
