From snug shearling to the sleek Grease Lightning-inspired, these are the best biker jackets to rock this autumn.
Despite rumours of an Indian summer this September, we can’t deny our browsing history has been chock full of autumn and winter clothes shopping. After all, how often is the weather actually right? So as an ode to our internet tabs, our sartorial skepticism, and the desire to always be one step ahead of the fashion curve, we’re bringing up one of our favourite staple pieces for tricky transitional weather: the leather jacket.
Come rain or shine, heatwave or sudden chill, the leather jacket is the kind of cover up you can always rely on to look cool and cope with whatever weather the universe throws its way. Of course, the leather jacket is a classic piece, but that doesn’t mean it has to be boring. In fact, there’s multiple ways that you can take on the look this season. Don’t believe us? We’ll show you.
Whether you’re looking to raise hell in vintage biker styles that would make an ‘Angel proud or fancy exploring trending utility details and even blazer styles, here are our top leather jacket picks to prep you for the autumn ahead.
Borg
A leather jacket lined with shearling offers a certain softness that we love to see in a leather jacket. It complements the stern and to-the-point manner of the leather, but still collides together stylishly.
Biker
Someone bring out the motor bikes! A biker jacket is a classic, and always cool staple piece to add to any man’s wardrobe. This season, try jazzing up your smart wear by pairing slacks and a white shirt with a biker jacket on top.
Utility
Throughout 2019, we’ve realised the utility trend ceases to quit. But we can’t complain! A utility jacket looks especially luxurious yet edgy in a leather option, so pair yours with some khaki cargo trousers and a grey sweatshirt.
Black Alternatives
Despite the different styles listed above, we still tend to see leather jackets in a univariate shade of black. So, these are some of our favourite non-black leather jackets that will look trendy for the colder season, and show a bold choice of fashion, even if it is just a dark khaki, and not a hot pink.
