A leather blazer is the most relaxed way to go with leather

Biker jacket screams. Bomber is casual. The leather blazer speaks calmly, which is precisely why it is the strongest of the entire leather jacket family. You put it on your suit pants and you are elegant. Put on jeans and a t-shirt and you're stylishly elusive. This is a piece that crosses between worlds.

Why a vintage leather blazer Leather blazers had a golden era in the 80s and 90s, and that's when the best pieces came out. Back then, the leather was thicker, the cuts more natural (fitting shoulders, hip length), metal zippers or massive buttons. Today's leather blazers are either very expensive or leathery. Vintage offers a middle ground: honest material at a reasonable price.

How to combine it

For work: leather blazer + suit fabric pants + white shirt or rollneck. No tie or scarf. He seems confident and individual at the same time. Weekend: leather blazer + white t-shirt + jeans + clean sneakers or loafers. A classic combination that never gets old. Evening: leather blazer + black pants or leather skirt + bolder earrings or necklace. Skin on skin works if the pieces have different textures.

What to look for when choosing Shoulders that fit exactly, that is insurmountable. The length should be at the hips or slightly below, too short looks like a jacket for another person. The leather should be soft, not stiff, stiff leather is either low quality or the piece needs conditioner. And lapels: structured lapels keep their shape, pleated lapels (softer) are more modern.
