Cannonball55 is not a brand. It’s a direction.
Not made in-house — but made with purpose. Every piece we offer begins with our idea of what American vintage style should feel like: raw, grounded, and honest.
We work with small workshops and independent design studios — people who bring our vision to life through skill and craft. The jackets, the hats, the details — they’re built by hands, but they start in our heads.
Eyes on the Road.
We don’t cut leather or thread needles — but we know exactly what we want from those who do.
The shape, the weight, the finish — all of it starts with our sketches, references, conversations. Inspired by American grit — cowboys, baseball fields, open highways, dirt-track races — we look for things that aren’t polished but real.
We work closely with our makers, adjusting patterns, selecting hides, asking the right questions — again and again — until it feels just right. If you’re here, you probably understand that process. You want things to feel intentional.
What We Work With.
We choose makers who don’t cut corners. Natural full-grain leather, soft sheepskin, warm furs, solid zippers — durable, heavy, responsive materials.
We don’t carry big collections. We commission limited runs, and sometimes even one-offs. No “fast fashion,” no marketing fluff — just gear built with patience.
You’ll feel it from the first touch.
Some jackets resist you at first. Some hats hold shape like they mean it. These are things that get better because they start with more.
Why We Bother.
Because inspiration shouldn’t be diluted.
Because what we imagine — we want to see done right.
Because somewhere between the design files and the workshop benches, there’s a rare kind of collaboration.
Cannonball55 isn’t about scale. It’s about the road we choose — and who we bring along.
