I have at least four and wear them to go out as well as when I am on my motorbike. The only one I don't wear on the bike is my bright pink Harley Davidson one that Mr Feline bought me as a gift. Although I like to wear them with casual clothes, jeans etc., I really love the look of them over a very feminine lace dress or something like that. I like the contrast of the two different styles worn together.

Don't overlook motorcycle shops for some great leather jackets. I bought one years ago at a Harley Davidson shop. It didn't have all the logo BS all over it, and people were always trying to buy it off me whenever I wore it out.

It ended up with my best friend who enjoyed wearing it our to leather bars, etc, but it soon became HIS closet staple.
I am now looking for a new one and will seek out a classic one. Love the look of a motorcycle jacket over a soft, feminine dress. The juxtaposition of styles makes the whole look better.

I LOVE biker jackets. I have around 6 and I've seen another one I want to buy. My friends joke that when I have kids they'll come out in biker jackets.

Some people thought they were tacky but I really liked the Burberry s/s 11 biker jackets.

dont biker jackets and combat boots go hand in hand? at least in my world. the thing is i think you have to wear them and not let them get so heavy handed they wear you. even though one of mine is a bess jacket with major brass studs when i saw it i knew it was part of my persona...so be it.

dont get me started on junya's version...goner.

I just bought red leather, with studs - hopefully it will work!

This is one of my favourite uses of this trend - Suede ca 1994:

I'm rather partial to the absolute tackiness of the Burberry snakeskin motorbike jacket (lllipgloss.com

Although not really my style, the Junya Watanabe ones are superdreamy.

iluvjeisa, you rock for posting that Suede video... so incredibly hot!!!

I haven't found my ideal motorcycle leather jacket yet. Actually, those I do like are completely out of my budget, so for now I can only admire this one by Acne from my computer screen.

^Acne have done such wonderful biker jackets this season, the sheepskin ones they've done are absolutely amazing and gorgeous!

Mulberry have done some absolutely dreamy biker jackets this season - shame about the price (Burgundy is £795 and the Sheepskin is £2,000)

True leather motorcycle jackets are not in my budget right now, but I did get a very inexpensive version last year (Spring 2010) when Lauren Conrad for Kohl's produced one. It's faux-leather, and the cut is pretty nice! Now that it's slowly been cooling down here, I've been itching to wear mine again this fall.

^I love that.

I'm also loving Lot78's jackets, starting alittle cheaper than an All Saint's leather which isn't bad.

Junya's jackets are still produced by Lewis Leathers?

Bronx Jacket (since 1956)

Same here! It's something I went looking for through thrift stores for years, but the ones I liked really didn't fit me...So I'm letting this on my "when I make more money" wishlist. And I hope I will actually make more money soon enough

i can't say though i would like to know the answer...

if it says "made in the uk" = most likely (unfortunately I can't check that)

I've never really wanted a biker jacket. I've always felt that it was a bit too rock'n'roll for me, but I've been thinking about getting one for a while now, thinking I could pair it with more feminine pieces.
I guess it's practical aspect has lured me in.

H&M has one that I want to have a closer look at, I like that it's quite simple and has a more relaxed fit.
That it's in my price range doesn't hurt either
