The leather jacket is a classic piece of clothing that dates back to the early 1900s and will never go out of style. It is now deemed a style essential not just by men, but also by women. Regardless of style, price, or occasion, there is a jacket for everyone. If you’re having trouble deciding which one is right for you, look no further as we’ve put together a list of magnificent stunning leather jackets that are suitable for a variety of occasions. 

Bomber Jacket 

In recent years, the bomber jacket has established itself as a true menswear staple and it’s easy to see why. The use of leather as an outerwear material extends beyond motorcycle apparel. It may have come in different types of material, but the bomber jacket has always had the same basic shape: a cropped body with a central zip and a fitted waist and cuffs. Luckily, this type of jacket can be worn in many ways. 

Pair it with a simple white T-shirt or chambray shirt for a safe bet. You can also close the top button on the varsity jacket to create an open a-frame silhouette, and wear it with slim blue trousers and a charcoal knit. These are perfect for heading out to dinner with your buddies or to a basketball game with your mates. A bomber jacket not only looks great but also serves a useful purpose when it’s cold outside. Combine it with winter essentials like heavy selvedge denim, work boots, and a cardigan to complete the look. 

Biker Jacket 

The motorcycle jacket is another timeless garment that can be worn in any season. First worn by motorcyclists, the biker jacket is a cropped leather jacket with studs and an asymmetric cut that was designed to allow riders to lean over their bikes without the fastenings cutting into their bodies. It is big on details too, like the front pockets and shoulder lapels that make it a versatile off-duty style. Whether you’re roaming the streets or going out for a drink, the jacket looks great day or night. Be it oversized, cropped, or vintage, the biker jacket effortlessly gives off the grunge vibes to any look.  

Make it more casual by wearing it with a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt. Play around with ripped jeans, a vintage-wash t-shirt, and Chelsea boots or a creeper-sole Derby shoe for a punk look. Metallic jewellery can also be used to add a final touch. Sneakers are fashionable, but only if they are white. You can never go wrong with a black biker jacket, but feel free to experiment with different colours. Whichever route you take, make sure whatever you’re wearing underneath is light, as this style is meant to be worn close to the body. 

Field Jacket 

Refine your look with a field jacket, one of the most underappreciated items of military attire. This jacket, also known as the M-65, was first depicted in cotton drill fabric but has since been updated in leather. It’s usually a little longer than other styles, with lots of front pockets, a waist belt, and a hidden placket. In deep brown leather, this fashion statement is more appealing and fits more snugly most of the time. The versatility of this leather jacket is what makes it so great. 

For the perfect winter style, wear your field jacket with navy fitting jeans, a rollneck sweater, and a classic pair of Chelsea boots. The field jacket can be worn on a regular basis too even if it is monochrome and basic. Layer the field jacket over a plain t-shirt, black chinos, and low-cut white leather sneakers to achieve this look. Now that we’re in the fall season, it’s the perfect time to experiment with a field jacket. Additionally, shopping for a field jacket has become easier now that there are more options available from brands like LEVI’S, Belstaff, and Alpha Industries M-65. 

Racer Jacket 

Aside from the military and sportswear, the automobile world has a significant influence on menswear. One of the goods is the leather cafe racer jackets which are thought to have originated in London, England in the 1960s. After returning home after WWII, many troops developed a taste for modifying motorcycles and racing them between local pubs and cafes. They noticed that wearing the racer jacket improved their performance, which is why it has a sturdy front zipper and sufficient weight in the back to provide suitable protection. When it comes to style, racer jackets are simple in design and they tend to flatter the body, especially if you have broad shoulders. If you have a slimmer body shape, choose a thicker leather.  

Brown and black are among the favourite colours available for the racer jacket. Black leather trousers are a good choice if you’re wearing a black leather cafe racer jacket. If you prefer to play with colour or want something a little more unusual, check out the one with stripes, contrasting colours, patches, or stitch work on the shoulders or elbows. Keep in mind that you should use sturdy shoes with your racer jacket. Some bikers like to ride in their shoes, while others prefer to ride in their boots. You can wear either type of footwear as long as it is durable and long-lasting.
