WEB 2024: The Year of the Men's Leather Jacket
How to Pull Off One of the Most Divisive Pieces in Your Wardrobe
By Joseph Furness and Carmen Bellot
Contrary to popular belief, you're never too old to wear a leather jacket. In fact, 2024 is shaping up to be the year of the men's leather jacket. Here's how to pull off one of the most divisive pieces in your wardrobe:
1. Choose the Right Style
There are a few main styles of leather jackets for men: the biker, the bomber, the racer, the flight, and the field. Each style has its own unique shape, cut, zipper placement, lining, and collar. Choose the style that best suits your personal style and body type.
2. Find the Perfect Fit
A leather jacket should fit snugly but not too tightly. The shoulders should be narrow, and the sleeves should end at your wrists. The jacket should also be long enough to cover your waist but not so long that it looks baggy.
3. Pair It with the Right Clothes
A leather jacket can be dressed up or down. For a casual look, pair it with jeans and a T-shirt. For a more formal look, pair it with dress pants and a button-down shirt.
4. Accessorize
Accessories can help you personalize your leather jacket. A scarf, hat, or gloves can add a touch of style and warmth. You can also add a few pins or patches to give your jacket a unique look.
5. Take Care of It
A leather jacket is an investment, so it's important to take care of it properly. Clean it regularly with a soft cloth and leather cleaner. Store it in a cool, dry place when not in use.
With the right care, a leather jacket can last for years. So if you're looking for a timeless piece that will never go out of style, invest in a men's leather jacket today.
