Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is every LION jacket hand-painted individually — will mine look different to the photos?
A: Yes. Every LION is painted by hand, so the exact placement and expression of the motif will vary slightly. The character and scale of the lion remain consistent.
Q: How does distressed denim differ from standard denim in wear and care?
A: Distressed denim has pre-worked texture — it looks better with age but is also slightly more delicate at the distressed points. Dry cleaning protects those areas alongside the painted artwork.
Q: Can I commission a LION with a different base colour — navy, black, or white denim?
A: Yes — contact us to discuss a bespoke commission on the base, hardware, and painted motif.
