Leather Jackets

[Bjornebye]

Whats peoples take on them? Ive got a pretty expensive one I got in a sale from all-saints last year. I'd spent years waiting for one that I really liked. I rarely wear it though.....

 

Anyone else a leather jacket fiend?

He's gone, get over it.

I've got 2.

 

A really soft leather brown one. Fashionable style but now looks a bit old and battered. Which is exactly how I wanted it to look.

 

Also, a nice black bomber style one with ribbed, elasticated waist and collar. I look like a fighter pilot. Lovely and warm in the winter with the collar up and a nice scarf underneath.

 

I love a leather jacket, me. Nothing worse than a "leather look" jacket though.

I've got two – A Ted Baker ‘M65’ style one in black. I used to hang it off the back of the door and the cat would use it as a 'climbing frame'. The leather’s like paper so it’s shot through with claw-marks. The replacement is a brown Barbour ‘Hurricane’ jacket in the same style. I had to buy it as it was half price, and you’ll always need a leather jacket right? Even if it’s brown? I’ve worn it twice and felt like a sex pest both times.

 

I then discovered leather wasn't waterproof so went back to waxed jackets.

I've got three, one old 70s black one that's knackered, a brown River Island one I spent a fortune on a few years back (which I never wear) & a really dark brown one which I got for about £20 in a closing down sale, which is one of my favourite things in the whole World. I wear it all the time & people often ask me where I got it, it's a proper The Sweeney-style jacket.

I wore my rather exceptional grey leather jacket out in London with Rouser a month or so back, and was approached in the pub by a middle-aged black male stranger who said I was pure style and did some convoluted handshake thing to show his respect.

 

He was with his girlfriend as well so arguably wasn't even trying to bum me.

 

There simply isn't a higher compliment.

I had a black biker jacket with zips and stuff when I was a 15 year old metal head. Fucking thing didn't bend for the first six months I had it, used to walk round like Robbie the Robot until it wore in a bit.

I'm not having that there's an exceptional grey leather jacket, is there a picture of the article in question?

 

I've only seen homeless people & old men with shell suit bottoms, white socks & black shoes wearing them.

Unimpeachable taste.

They're great... But not warm enough unless it's a puffy one, which IMO doesn't look as sleek..

Grey leather jacket? Never seen one. Pic plz.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Iv'e got a few, aint worn them in years but you never bin a leather. You only have to look at Sturridge and the shite footwear Kanye west designs to put that myth to bed, Like a grey leather has ever looked good on anyone other than bergerac.

[Dr Nowt]

Racist.

I've just Googled Grey leather jackets and these are some of the first results. Going to need evidence yours doesn't make you look like a nonce Lizzie, because these haven't convinced me.

 

 

 

[Sugar Ape]

In fact, after the last one I think you need to say you've got a Bieber jacket.

 

Disgraceful.

Have a soft brown leather one myself. Looked the business when I got it a few years back. Getting a bit worn now though.

Racist.

He's black AND gay. Motherfucker should be style personified.

 

I'm guessing the two have cancelled each other out in his case.

[Mook]

Fuck all wrong with a lego hat.

 

What?

[Dr Nowt]

Away for the night. Tomorrow I will post a picture of said magnificent item and you fuckers will rue the day.

 

Either that or I'll get the piss ripped out of me by everybody.

 

Tough one.

What?

Prefer sticklebricks myself, but each to their own.
