All of the ones I see here in the US are either past my budget or too cheap-looking.

got one at h&m ... obviously some fake.
got ruined very quickly ! barely wore it ...
don't buy there for a leather jkt ! NEVER ! whatever yr budget is !
do you wanna spend 100$ twice and more ? or 200$ once ?

go to thrift stores - if you don't have the 500-1000$ budget ! for x's sake !



try to find one in good conditions ... and once you clean it, it's ok.
moreover they have this old patine, most of us are craving to get ...

ITA....I have five of them, and two of them are vintage. My fav one is a vintage black biker one which I made more fierce by putting studds on the collar

Miss Sixty has some really cute Leather jackets at Macy's, real leather and quite affordable

I've been drooling over that Rick Owens jacket for some time now. If I had the money, I'd buy it in a second. It's exactly what I've been searching for. However, the $2600 price tag is a *bit* steep for someone on a student budget

I saw this today and I love it already! It's the Becca leather jacket by Mackage, available at Bloomingdales and ShopStyle. $560 USD.





Bloomingdales.

How did it get ruined? Because I just bought one from H&M! I haven't worn it yet though. I'm just curious to know what I should or shouldn't do to ruin it lol.

H&M do have a faux leather jacket. I wouldn´t buy one. But I also saw another one online also from H&M and it was real leather. It was so cool. I haven´t been able to find it at any of their stores...

Just ordered this one online from American Eagle.
Saw it in store, and the leather was sooo buttery soft and the color was great, but no sizes left.

Love the Balenciaga Leather Jacket, so this is a nice alternative for now...

^^^ I have the same jacket too and its great! The Balenciaga is just too damn expensive, even though its heavenly.

[CherryBomb01]

^^That American Eagle jacket looks great!

Has anyone heard of or bought anything from lizfelice,com ???
They have som really nice stuff.

[CherryBomb01]

^^Anyone? They have a few jackets I'd like to "try".

My latest leather jacket, I bought yesterday. I love this.... the fit is great and the grey makes a nice change from black.

What are some of your favourite ones out now?

[professoralenic]

The Gap has a great one on sale as of now. It's a practical leahter jacket with a hood. Sure, it's not as edgy as the typical "motorcycle" leather jacket, but it's just as stylish. http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do...8748002&vid=-1

^ Do you work at Gap?
