How to Choose the Best Leather Jacket or a Coat for Men?
When you’ve chosen leather as your material of choice, it’s hard to go wrong. As long as you opt for high-quality leather that’ll keep you cosy all through winter, it all boils down to style and the smaller details:- What colour you prefer?
- How many pockets you want?
- What kind of lining you prefer?
- How many girls you want chasing after you?
In terms of lining, fleece is your best choice for the winter, but flight jackets will have sealed off cuffs and waistband that promise insulation, no matter the lining (make sure it is high quality, though)! Polyester and cotton lining will be must-haves if you’re looking for a nice biker or aviator jacket that you can wear into the summer.
Types
Leather jackets come in so many varieties, so you’re going to be making some decisions that are as tough as your look! Or, you can do what we like to do, and choose one of each variety to really customise your look on every cold winter day. While settling on a type isn’t easy, we can promise that everything after that is: you’ll be convinced that England has never seen a milder winter while your buddies fight over the fireplace.Bomber and aviator jackets are closely related flight jackets made for pilots way back when aeroplanes weren’t fully covered, so you better believe they’ll keep you warm in the chilliest country backwoods. If you’re going for an equally tough but more fitted vibe, biker jackets are your best best. Finally, quilted jackets are a winter classic that will keep you looking ever the gentleman all throughout the season. We recommend that whatever you choose for yourself, you should also buy for your lady friend lest yours gets stolen by a special someone!
Let’s run through these styles in more depth so you can get a feel for which one is best suited for you. By the end, you’ll be wishing for the unthinkable: year-round British winters.
Bomber
The much-touted bomber jacket is a favourite of fashion conscious men like Johnny Depp and Kanye West, but did you know that this must-have, originally designed to keep military men warm mid-air, still retains most of the features that made it iconic in the first half of the 20th century?Typically constructed from leather or sheepskin, this blouson-style jacket is designed with tight closures around the waist, wrist, and neck that were meant to keep pilots warm - but now it’s the country boys who will find themselves as cosy as their livestock in this classic.
A tough, weather-resistant exterior meant for the open skies provides that aged-country look and quilted lining provides excellent insulation that will keep you warm on the inside but looking as cool as a cucumber from the outside.
Look for a jacket that has pinch elastic at the waistband, as well as stud cuffs with adjusters that give you flexibility for the perfect fit. Pockets both outside and inside the garment are, of course, essential, and we recommend pairing with dark jeans or trousers for the ultimate chill guy effect.
Don’t blame us if you get mistaken for a celeb or front man!
Biker
You don’t need to go out and buy a Harley to achieve the country biker dude effect - in fact, a leather biker jacket is just enough to step up to next-level ultra-cool. Whether it’s zipped up in the cold or zipped down to reveal a fitted white t-shirt emphasising that manly chest of yours, this winner is certain to gain you a lot of attention amongst the ladies!
A retro tight fit to a semi-fitted fit is the way to bike off into the sunset - even if you’re just driving or wheelbarrowing off into the sunset - so make certain of your measurements before settling on a size.
We love a biker jacket with a double front zip fastening that can be closed left or right, but there are plenty one one zip options if you’re going for a more simple vibe.
For men who can’t decide between the biker and quilted jackets, settle on a compromise by choosing a biker style with quilted detailing to the front, back and sleeves - not only will you look as handsome as they come, but your jacket will be super flexible.
Don’t forget your accessories: great sunglasses and sleek gloves will turn you into a rugged, mysterious man complete with irresistible country charm.

Quilted
Find the height of luxury and country charm in a quilted leather coat for men - a luscious classic that should have a home in every gents’ wardrobe! We find leather coats quilted in crisscross panels with high-quality threads to be the most eye-catching, and the longer you wear it, the better this coat looks!
This classic style is perfect for all occasions, and of course, the quilted panels make for added warmth. This coat will last, and last, so you can wear it season after season and still make a memorable impression while staying nice and cosy. Look for versatile colours, because you’re going to want to wear this high-style outerwear even when you’re in the city - black, brown, and tan are always great choices.
Look for a jacket that has at least two front pockets and luxurious detailing - we love Woodland Leather’s version, which has pockets with flap and stud closure and a quality front zipper also with stud fastenings - so you can make sure you’re sealed in there! Its versatile collar can be worn down or up, and the coat is not only luxurious on the outside - it has an inner lining made of satin and cotton.
How to Style a Leather Coat, Parka, or a Jacket?
Now that you’re familiar with the various types of leather outerwear, let’s circle back around to style so that you can really rock that bad boy of yours!
Whether you’re a softie at heart who loves a more laid back vibe or a macho type that no one wants to mess with, you’ll feel right at home in your jacket of choice once you get the rest of your style basics down.
It’s hard to go wrong with a parka - if you’re a formal dude, pair one with dark or tweed trousers, while casual chaps can opt for cords or everyday jeans. A quilted coat is the perfect ‘sophisticated boyfriend’ look, but we think this looks irresistible on any man, no matter his taste or his availability.
While this choice already spells luxury with a capital L, dress it up with a fancy watch and a gorgeous tweed flat cap - and don’t you forget a decent pair of loafers. This coat is the height of elegant, refined taste though, so don’t blame your date when she expects you to take the check in full!
If you’re feelin’ that heartbreaker country look, look no further than a biker jacket - the farm girls will be chasing your tractor all the way home, even if you haven’t upgraded to a motorbike.
Pair yours with dark wash jeans for a casual yet untouchable vibe, and a pair of good ol’ leather boots will lock in that rockin’ look.
A bomber or aviator coat is versatile enough to be worn by any fun-loving guy, so stock up on these no matter who you are and adjust your outfit to fill in the rest of your style. Fleece detailing on these choices will round out that generous fit and provide a touch of softness to make you all the more irresistible to the ladies. However, also pay attention to other detailing like sunglasses, a cap, and well-fitted trousers to complement your looser top half.
In general, tweed and wax cotton caps, trousers, and waistcoats go beautifully with leather outerwear, and these materials will also keep you as warm as the leather does in winter months. For your first layer, you can opt for cotton shirts and show them off when it’s warm enough to slightly unzip your jacket, and if you’re headed to a business meeting a crisp, button-up dress shirt will do just the trick.
Of course, a well-made scarf can play off a leather coat in autumn and winter, especially if you like the preppy or city slicker style - just make sure it isn’t too bulky or bold to ensure that it won’t detract from your statement leather piece.
Whatever your style is, don’t forget the most important thing: since we know you’ll look as fly as they come, do yourself a favour and snap a pic to upload to the ‘gram! If you don’t have one, your girlfriend will be pleased to do the honours - she doesn’t need a caption for the picture to spell ‘taken’!
