Weekend Wear: A Leather Jacket Made To Get Through Winter
This look proves you don’t need to freeze to death to look like the badass on the streets. Look out for warm jacket linings, and add colour and texture to the look so that you can spend the entire day out in the city.
1. Burberry Shearling-Lined Leather Biker Jacket, $3,795
Leather jackets are a favourite during fall. With this piece from Burberry, you won’t have to retire the look once the temperature drops. It’s shearling-lined and weather-resistant — the perfect combination to combat the chilling wind and snow.
Sure, you can never go wrong with a wool, crewneck sweater. Pick out a bold shade to elevate the look beyond just a basic. You’ll be surprised how fresh a punch of colour can look.
3. Tiger of Sweden Black Pistolero Jeans, $199
Classic black jeans look good with almost anything, but especially with a slick leather jacket. Slim instead of skinny, with a tapered leg, and just the right amount of stretch, these jeans are subtly on trend.
4. Rag & Bone Kaden Cashmere Mitts, $165
Wearing gloves seem to slip most men’s minds. Yes, you can always jam your hands into your pockets, but this will be so much warmer. This fingerless pair is made from soft cashmere, and are great for those always on the phone.
5. Common Projects Beige Suede Chelsea Workboots, $845 at SSENSE
The Chelsea boot is timeless and versatile, a welcome new staple to the modern man’s wardrobe. Skip the expected black or brown leather in favour of a tan suede pair — just don’t forget the scotch guard before you step out of the house.
6. Braun BN0095 Prestige Chronograph Watch, $850
Braun is known for their modern approach to design, and the BN0095 chronograph is no exception. Continuing their history of innovation, this model forgoes a case back (the Swiss movement is instead assembled from the front before the case is sealed with the sapphire crystal) and the matte stainless steel case feels appropriately minimalist.
