Do you mean "a fetching leather jacket"?

"fetching" is an adjective in this context.

Like a lovely leather jacket, a nice leather jacket....

Fetching means attractive.

So the leather jacket is attractive to the person making the comment.

It seems to be the name of the manufacturer, since it �s capitalized in this link:

2 Bruce: Well, exactly the one (a different colour though) I thought the brand name is ONLY and it has "fetch leather jacket" on the inside tag where they write the material and the manufacturer �s info and washing instructions. So are you sure it �s a manufacturer �s name?

Tanks, Anita!
Somehow when I googled "fetch" the urban dictionary said there was no definition for it.
