Why a Leather Jacket Should Be Part of Your Spring Wardrobe Refresh


Spring is the perfect time to refresh your wardrobe. And while you can replace all of last season’s shirts with new, stylish choices, upgrading your outerwear can have a greater impact. And one of the best upgrades you can make to your spring clothing lineup is a beautiful leather jacket. Here’s why a leather jacket should be part of your spring wardrobe this year.

Leather Jackets Go With Anything
One of the best ways to make your wardrobe more versatile is to add pieces that can go with just about anything you pull out of your closet. A leather jacket is one of those items. When paired with a t-shirt, it can make you look trendy. When paired with a button down, it can transform an otherwise bland work-friendly outfit into one that showcases your personality. And there’s not a single color or type of fabric that leather won’t complement. 

They’re Warm, Not Hot
Spring weather in the greater Denver area can change quickly. Often, it’s close to freezing in the morning and more temperate in the afternoon, making dressing for the weather a challenge. Leather jackets offer the perfect balance of warmth and breathability. When paired with a warm sweater, these jackets can keep you toasty during the early morning hours and when worn over a shirt, they’re cool enough to be comfortable once the temperatures rise. 

Every Jacket Is Unique
Unless you’re buying custom clothing or making it yourself, your shirts, sweaters, and other accessories may be fairly common. If you can buy it in a store, other people can, too. That makes it hard to stand out and showcase your individual style. But leather jackets are completely unique. Every piece of leather will have different characteristics and colors, even if your jacket is made from the same general design as others. This makes it easier to stand out and helps you create a unique look that’s yours and yours alone. 

You’ll Stay Dry in Spring Rains
Though no item of clothing will keep you as dry as a proper raincoat, leather jackets are water resistant when properly treated. This means you’ll stay dry even in unexpected showers. Keep in mind that not all leather is able to stand up to moisture. You may notice some discoloration or staining in the material if it gets too wet.

Leather Jackets Are Durable
Much of the clothing and outerwear on the market these days is relatively low quality. That means it won’t last for years even if you take great care of it. Leather jackets are different. When you invest in a high-quality jacket and do what you can to keep it in good shape, it can last for decades. You’ll be able to enjoy using it for years to come without having to worry about replacing it just a few months after you bought it.
