Three reasons to add a leather jacket to your wardrobe from your Denver leather store
If you have been considering adding a quality Denver leather jacket to your wardrobe, we think now is the perfect time to buy! Stop wasting your money on faux pieces you only wear once. Instead, invest in a material that will fit you perfectly, last for years to come, and get better with age! If you still are not convinced, check out these three fantastic reasons to add this essential piece to your closet, below.

Leather jackets are versatile

From pairing perfectly with your favorite jeans and t-shirt to adding an edgy elegance to your favorite formal pieces, a Denver leather jacket goes with (just about) anything. One of the many reasons this outerwear option has remained a favorite of fashionistas, motorcyclists, punk rockers, and the average joe is its extremely versatile nature. From bright-colored, trendy designs that scream style to neutral toned, traditional fits that look great on anyone- the options for a leather jacket are seemingly endless (especially if you opt for a custom leather creation).

Leather offers durability and longevity

This extremely durable material lasts longer than you may think. In fact, a properly cleaned and cared for leather jacket can remain wearable for twenty years. Leather’s longevity is one of the many reasons your Denver leather jacket can remain a wardrobe staple for years (even decades) to come! Searching for a unique heirloom investment piece to pass down to a child or loved one? A high-quality leather jacket is just the thing! Also, because leather naturally forms to your body and gently wears over time, your jacket will look even better with age. Styles may change, but your Denver leather jacket will remain a fashionable favorite for years.  

Leather jackets are functional and fashionable

Leather jackets also offer great protection from the elements and can be worn in just about any season. Because leather is often very water resistant and offers warmth, this fabric is great for layering in the fall, winter, and spring! You can even wear your Denver leather in the summer, as many light leather jacket styles offer breathability. A leather jacket is also a great investment for motorcycle riders. Because leather offers superior insulation while also providing additional padding, this textile can help protect motorcyclists from the elements and injuries. Because there are lightweight and heavy-duty options, leather jackets are also fantastic at allowing a varying range of flexibility. However, no matter how heavy-duty your leather piece is, it will always offer endless amounts of comfort. Regardless of how and why you wear it, your leather jacket will keep you warm, dry, and (of course) stylish.

How to style your Denver leather jacket this spring
With warmer temperatures finally sticking around, there is no better time to finish assembling your spring wardrobe. However, this season be sure to have your Denver leather jacket handy! Not only is your leather jacket a timeless piece, but it is also a fantastic addition to any spring outfit. If you are ready to rock your leather jacket, check out a few of our favorite spring styling tips below.

Pair with bold prints and colors

Nothing says spring fashion like bold, bright colors and fun prints. What makes these colorful combinations even better? Pairing them with your favorite leather jacket! This is especially helpful on cool days as this extra layer will offer a splash of style and added warmth. From brightly colored stripes to beautiful watercolor prints, adorning your leather atop these trends adds an instant touch of edgy elegance. For an outfit that screams spring, consider pairing your favorite fitted leather jacket with a romantic floral print midi-skirt and neutral top. For those who prefer trousers over skirts, try a brightly checkered pant instead. Own a vibrant leather jacket you have been dying to wear? Now is the perfect time to pair these bold pieces with your favorite go-to spring looks.

Go Grunge

It seems the grunge trend is still alive and well this spring season. From distressed skinnies and graphic tops to baggy jeans and oversized tees, this trend is easy to copy and instantly upgraded with a classic black leather jacket. For those who want to awaken their inner 90’s Rockstar, we suggest going monochromatic with a black fitted t-shirt, black jeans (rips optional), black moto-cross boots, and black leather jacket. For added style, consider pairing with bold statement jewelry or a sleek timepiece. For a more casual option, pair your jacket with straight-leg black jeans, a classic plaid t-shirt, and black slip-ons. For the simplest grunge look of all, adorn your classic black leather jacket atop a crisp white t-shirt and blue jeans.

Mix leather with leather

With leather being used to create many everyday basics, this spring and summer trend is great for those looking to stock their wardrobe with investment pieces. From black leather maxi skirts and midi-dresses to the always stylish leather pant, it is easy to pair these classic pieces with your favorite leather jacket. For the perfect leather pairing, mix fitted black leather pants with a lighter weight turtleneck and your favorite black leather jacket. Swap the leather pants for a leather A-line skirt, for an edgy yet feminine look that can be worn at the office or during happy hour.

Three things to consider when purchasing the perfect Denver leather jacket


March 29, 2021

Three things to consider when purchasing the perfect Denver leather jacket
With spring temperatures finally on the horizon, now is the perfect time to add a new Denver leather jacket to your outerwear arsenal! Versatile, durable, and always stylish- these timeless pieces pair perfectly with just about any spring outfit. If you are ready to take the plunge and invest in a quality leather jacket, there are a few things you should think about before buying. From the fit and style to its purpose, our experts have rounded up three things we think you should consider prior to purchasing a leather jacket. Find out more below!

Its purpose

Whether you are buying a new leather jacket to stay warm when riding your motorcycle or simply to look chic while window shopping, recognizing the main purpose for your leather jacket is essential prior to purchasing. For example, those looking for added layers of protection and insulation may want to opt for a thicker leather jacket that offers wind resistance and extreme durability. However, those looking for something light and breathable to wear after work or on weekends may want to consider something thinner with a sleek, minimalist style. Always consider what activities you will be engaging in most while wearing your jacket.  

The style

The style of your jacket should be a reflection of your personal style. A great leather jacket can pair with just about anything. However, if it is not suited to your tastes, you may rarely (if ever) wear it. For those with an edgy spirit, you may want to consider the café racer or traditional motocross style. For those looking for something casual and sporty, a brown bomber jacket may be just the ticket. You can also have fun with styles boasting bright colors and interesting lengths, although these may not have the staying power classic cuts offer. When choosing your jacket style, we also suggest inspecting the jacket’s detailing. For a long-term piece, look for leather with minimal detailing (as these can date your jacket) and neutral colored hardware.

The fit

From shoulders that are too snug to sleeve and hem lengths that are too long, choosing a jacket that fits properly is one of the most important things to consider prior to purchasing a leather jacket. To make sure you find the perfect fit, we always recommend trying on your jacket before buying (if possible). We also suggest selecting a fit that allows for light layering. You do not want the jacket to be too baggy, but too tight will be uncomfortable and unflattering.

If you are ready to find your dream leather jacket, look no further than Jonval Leathers and Furs! With a wide variety of leather (and fur) jackets at your disposal, we can find, or design, the jacket that is perfect for you and matches your style. Visit our showroom to view our incredible inventory of fur and leather or give our team a call at 720-377-1555. You can also stop by to have your fur or leather pieces repaired, cleaned, or stored.

Three things your Denver fur coat needs this spring


March 17, 2021

Three things your Denver fur coat needs this spring
Whether you have just recently purchased a luxurious Denver fur coat or owned one for years, you may be wondering what you can do to keep it in pristine condition. If that is the case, the professionals at Jonval have you covered with a quick guide to getting your coat ready for warm weather retirement. Continue reading to find out more about our team’s expert tips and keep your fabulous fur in tip-top shape this spring season and beyond!

Professional Cleaning

Most experts agree, having your fur coat cleaned at least once a year is a must. However, it is extremely important this is done by an expert furrier. Attempting to clean your fur at home can dry out the pelt, leaving your investment piece incredibly brittle and potentially ruined. While you can have your fur cleaned and inspected any time of the year, we recommend utilizing this service in the spring. Because professional cleaning removes any dust, airborne particles, and other pollutants that may have accumulated in the fur’s hairs, dong this prior to retiring your coat for the season can help ensure it stays in pristine condition. As an added bonus, your fur will be clean, ready, and waiting for you once it is time to take it out of storage.

Repairs and/or Alterations

Spring is a fantastic time to have your fur repaired or altered. This is especially true if your coat has incurred any damage from perfumes, makeup, heavy accessories, or improper storage. Alterations can also be a great option for those who wish to repurpose their fur, update the coat’s design, or create a new silhouette. If you are looking to repair or alter your coat, we highly recommend taking it to a professional and knowledgeable tailor, like the team at Jonval. Repairing or altering your coat now, rather than in the fall, will give you more time to consider the changes you would like to make and ensure your coat is ready to go once temperatures get chilly.

Professional Storage

Because fur pieces require specific storage needs, our biggest piece of advice is to always utilize professional fur coat storage services whenever you retire your piece for the season. Improper storage of your coat can lead to severe (and sometimes irreparable) damages like dry or brittle pelts, mold growth, pest infestations, and fur deterioration. However, avoiding these problems is easy by utilizing Jonval’s professional storage vault. With a temperature and humidity-controlled environment, our vault is always the optimal setting for keeping your treasured piece in perfect condition.

We have an amazing selection! Check out the Jonval leather and fur gallery to view items available or visit us at 6880 East Evans Avenue.
