I picked up a brown leather jacket from a vintage clothing store a few years back. It's one of my favourite pieces of clothing that I own. I actually like it when winter comes around so that I can wear it.

"It's synthetic leather but I promise you won't notice the difference." lol

Biker jacket paired with white shirt, trousers, and tie is a very confusing outfit. It's like Phil from accounting all of sudden is trying to look badass simply by wearing a leather biker jacket. Biker jackets should be worn casually. Well fitting jeans paired with boots and well fitting T-shirt or henley. That's all you need.

Best leather jacket is a 1930s style halfbelt imo. I've got a custom made Lost Worlds horsehide halfbelt. Made in USA. The jacket can stand up by itself!

You say a good jacket can last a lifetime, but you also recently 2020 say that over 40s can’t pull it off. By the time one can afford a nice leather jacket, they’ll be getting close the age limit lol

Hi Ashley! What style of jacket is that at 0:21? Looking for just that style.

[alexpeterjoy]

i don't really like the look of the jacket's with the dress shirts and tie it just looks too "snobbish", it could just be the model though

Couldn't you find anyone taller? lol

Thanks for the video.

I've seen many men to wear something in between a racer / bomber (without elastic bands) / fatigue jacket - minimalist, no flashy zippers, shirt-like collar, sometimes buttons instead of/above the front zipper - as a formal style, e.g. over a suit jacket. Of course, only outdoors and especially at some serious events, such as weddings, funerals etc. when a solid, minimalist leather jacket can look very formal and much more serious than any other kind of overcoat. Of course, a trench coat can also look serious but it's kinda out of fashion for younger folks and also might look weird on shorter guys.

I'm 40 now and because of my genetic health issues I'm somewhat short (174cm) and thin at my shoulders, so I thought that maybe a somewhat more formal leather jacket might make me look more serious, but at the same time I'm afraid to get the looks totally wrong and look like a tomboy or a boy in his father's jacket.

Hi Ashley,  
I am currently torn between AllSaints Kushiro (goatskin) and AllSaints Griffin( lamb skin),
I have heard that lamb skin is the softest but prone to tearing while goatskin is more durable.
I was wondering which leather/jacket would you recommend me to get?

I love the looks of the bomber jacket, any budget friendly options? Unlike your other essential items articles this one doesn't have budget friendly options

If you've got the dosh, try Lewis Leathers. It's a London boutique that's been selling motorcycle leathers since way-back-when.

Don't know anything about this channel but your male model seems very awkward with his poses which throws off the whole outfit you're trying to promote. Some nice tips otherwise!

Personaly, i find synthetic leather a lot harder to wear because it tends to get a lot hotter than real leather. (I own a synthetic leather jacket and a motorcycle leather jacket)

[rajkrish]

Such elegant presentation back then....
