This is why it’s important for individuals to give their leather pants a little TLC. By investing just a small amount of your time and resources into caring for your leather pants, you’ll prolong their life while getting more bang for your buck in the process.

If you’re struggling to choose a leather skirt, keep reading for some helpful tips and tricks. We’re going to walk you through the process of finding the perfect leather skirt, regardless of your personal style. Go Genuine We’ve talked about this before on our blog, but it’s worth mentioning again that not all leather skirts are made of genuine leather. Some companies cut corners by using faux/fake leather.

Winter is right around the corner, which means thousands of people have begun their search for a much-needed jacket. Of course, there’s no better choice of winter outwear than a genuine leather jacket. The soft yet durable characteristics of leather offer an unmatched level of comfort and protection from the elements. But there are a few things you should consider before buying a new women’s leather jacket, which we’re going to discuss in today’s blog post. What’s the Color? When choosing a new women’s leather jacket, pay close attention to the color. Traditional colors like brown and beige are often preferred, but this doesn’t necessarily mean that you should limit yourself to only choosing them. Women’s leather jackets are available in countless colors and color combinations, ranging from brown and beige to black, red, yellow, orange and more. You can create a bold appearance by choosing a leather jacket in a non-traditional color. At the same time, however, you should consider whether or not it matches the rest of your outfit. A yellow leather jacket is sure to turn heads, but how many outfits do you own that will match a yellow jacket? Chances are not too many, in which case it’s probably best to stick with a color like brown, black or red, all of which are excellent, easy-to-match choices for a women’s leather jacket. Who Made it? Arguably, one of the most important things to consider when choosing a women’s leather jacket is the manufacturer. If the manufacturer emphasizes profits over the quality of its products, the leather jacket will probably suffer from design flaws. On the...

When you think of clothing that’s made of leather, what’s the first garment that comes to mind? If you answered jacket, you aren’t alone. Most people associate leather with jackets, and for good reason: leather jackets have been around for over a century (yes, they are that old), with some of the earliest styles originating during the World War I. Back then, leather jackets were worn by Air Force bomber pilots and crew members for warmth and protection. Leather is thicker and more insulated than cotton and other textile fabrics, making it an excellent choice for high-altitude flights. Leather jackets are rarely worn for high-altitude warmth and comfort today, but they remain a popular choice of outwear among both men and women alike. Of course, there are other leather garments available as well, including shirts. Leather shirts offer many of the same attractive qualities and features as their jacket counterpart. This includes warmth, protection from the elements, comfort and style. But if you’re thinking of buying a new leather shirt, there are a few things you should know. For a list of 8 essential rules to follow when choosing a leather shirt, keep reading. RULES Rule #1) Go Genuine The golden rule of choosing a leather shirt is to make sure it’s genuine. Just because a leather shirt looks and feels like it’s made of real leather doesn’t necessarily mean that it is. Faux (fake) leather is often used as a substitute to cut costs. While a shirt made of faux leather typically costs less than the real thing, it doesn’t offer the same attractive qualities as genuine leather....
