How to match autumn and winter leather jackets to look stylish
Not only do boys look handsome in leather jackets, but the unique leather smell exuded from leather jackets is the ‘manly smell’ that many girls love most.
There was even a girl who once said such a cruel saying, "Only those of the opposite sex who can wear leather clothes can be called men.
Those of the opposite sex who cannot wear leather clothes can at most be considered boys." ’
For this reason, today I would like to introduce to you three leather jackets that will make you look handsome and at the same time, even the girls will call them "top" after seeing them.
01# A-2 Flight Jacket
First, let’s talk about bomber jackets that are suitable for boys of all sizes.
There are many types of bomber jackets. Today we will focus on the ‘A-2 Flight Jacket – A-2 Leather Jacket’, which is most in line with today’s aesthetics in terms of appearance and materials.
However, other styles are a bit too retro today. If you are not an archeology addict, forget it.
And the biggest advantage of the A-2 jacket is that it is suitable for boys of almost all body types.
In terms of style, A-2 adopts an upright collar similar to that of a shirt, and the shoulders are decorated with epaulettes.
A double layer of leather will be added to the outer layer of the zipper, and the front of the garment will have pointed flap pockets.
The old version's cuffs and hem were made of wool or cotton ribbed cuffs, but with continuous improvement,
some brands have also removed the tight cuff design and replaced it with a naturally drooping straight design, which also prevents some boys from exposing their belly when they stretch.
All the above designs are designed to make boys' upper bodies look stronger and more manly.
In addition, because A-2 is derived from military uniforms, the military will definitely have requirements for the wearer's posture.
Therefore, another major advantage of the A-2 leather jacket is that it can effectively improve the posture of men.
After talking about the advantages, let’s briefly talk about the matching method. In fact, the matching of the A-2 jacket is very simple and relatively casual.
Pair with fitted jeans and trousers for the bottoms, and a shirt and a solid-color T-shirt for the tops.
But be careful not to oversize, because the jacket is already very fat and big, and if it doesn’t fit inside, it will easily look useless.
Although in the past, the air force would wear overalls underneath, but today, it is a bit too old-fashioned.
When choosing the height of the pants, it must be above the mid-waist to prevent half of the underwear from being exposed when you raise your hand.
When choosing the color of trousers, dark colors are recommended,
because a leather jacket like A-2, which pursues an orthodox style, will make people feel that the lower limbs are not strong enough when paired with light colors, and they will go astray when the wind blows.
Although this leather jacket is a G-1 style, there is not much difference in style. It only has an extra circle of raw edges on the collar.
Those who like fur collars can also try it.
If you are on the thin side and don’t want to wear a relatively bulky leather jacket, I suggest you take a look at the following motorcycle jacket.
02#motorcycle jacket
Like bomber jackets, there are many types of motorcycle jackets. Today, the two main ones are the ‘Biker Jacket’ and ‘Fencing Jacket’ with diagonal zippers.
Its characteristic is that it is suitable for boys who are on the thin side, and can well improve their body proportions when worn.
Let’s start with the most common motorcycle jacket, which is standard equipment for motorcycle and rock enthusiasts.
The more obvious features are that the hem of the clothes is very short, it also has epaulettes, the waist is waisted, it comes with a belt, the zipper is diagonally pulled, and a sub-collar is added to the upright collar.
When worn open, the collar will stretch to the left and right sides of the chest.
The design of the fencing jacket is relatively simple. Apart from a clear diagonal zipper and high collar design, there is no excessive decoration on the hem. It is almost the same in appearance as the sportswear worn by fencers.
The biggest feature of these two clothes is that they can make boys' legs look longer.
Make legs look longer
In the early stages of design, the motorcycle jacket was deliberately designed to be very short in order to ensure that excess parts would not be involved in the motorcycle.
The prototype of the fencing jacket was a sportswear type and was naturally designed to be lightweight, so the short version was chosen in the end.
And many designers will deliberately lengthen the sleeves to make the arms much longer than the upper body. They can also shorten the upper body and lengthen the lower body.
Such a design can undoubtedly shorten the length of a boy's upper body through the viewing angle effect, thus improving the proportion of the legs and body.
Secondly, due to the clear shoulder lines of the two, there will be a separate design at the hem, and combined with the upper waist design, from top to bottom, it will give people a feeling of being wide at the top, narrow in the middle, and relaxed again at the bottom, unconsciously focusing the eyes on the upper body of the man.
Make thin boys look more powerful.
In addition to making the legs look longer, these two jackets can also solve the shortcomings of boys who are too thin and have underdeveloped chest muscles.
Transform two chest muscles in one second
Regardless of whether they are men or women, they definitely want their significant other to have bigger breasts.
But many thin boys have complained to me because they are born with flat chests. No matter how they train, their chest muscles are underdeveloped and they look particularly flat from the front.
And these two leather jackets can make you look not so 'flat'.
Because the motorcycle jacket has two huge lapels on the chest, it can make men's chest thicker when worn open.
The waist design can make your upper body look more three-dimensional and give you an inverted triangle figure.
By the way, boys with a small belly can zip their clothes halfway to support their breasts and cover their shortcomings at the same time.
Although there are no extra decorations on the chest of the fencing jacket, at the beginning of the design, the chest was deliberately cut to make it easier to move, so that the upper part of the jacket would naturally bulge.
Especially after the zipper is fully zipped, girls will feel that there must be some "private life" hidden in your clothes, and they may even want to pull it open to find out.
After talking about the suitable groups and advantages, let’s look at the matching.
Because the designs of these two jackets are already more prominent, and they are mostly black.
The safest way is to pair it with a black T-shirt or shirt and fitted jeans.
When it comes to pants, try to fit them first, so just exclude overalls or harem pants that will weaken the shape of your legs.
If you want to look mature and stable, wear straight-leg trousers or jeans. If you want to dress yourself in a younger direction, you can try over-the-knee shorts made of pure black nylon fabric.
The premise is that you must have a pair of long legs.
If you don’t have much experience with matching, I don’t recommend pairing it with a scarf or necklace.
If not matched well, it will look too exaggerated and fancy.
The last thing to note is that people who are too fat should not try motorcycle jackets and fencing jackets easily.
It is too easy to dress yourself up like a "bundled bacon" that can walk upright.
After talking about leather jackets suitable for boys with relatively strong and thin bodies, let’s finally talk about how taller boys should choose.
03#long leather trench coat
This leather jacket is the only long leather windbreaker among the three styles today.
It is most suitable for taller boys to make them appear taller and slimmer.
The style of long leather windbreakers is generally relatively simple, without too many complications.
The collar is a single lapel, and the sides of the garment are designed with round buttons. The length is generally between the thigh and the knee.
And some brands and designs add the same belt design as a formal coat.
In addition to making you look taller and slimmer, the biggest advantage of the long leather windbreaker is that its functionality is much higher than the short ones mentioned above.
The most functional leather jacket
In fact, when it comes to leather clothing, one of the biggest problems is that in today's era of technological fabrics, the functionality of leather clothing is really poor. It neither keeps warm nor can it hold much.
Although the leather is wind-resistant, its warmth retention is really useless.
And most of the boys who choose leather jackets do it to show that they are men.
In order to show that leather jackets can maximize their aesthetic value, they must wear them half-open. No matter how cold it is, they will not tie the clothes tightly.
Therefore, as long as you encounter strong winds or slightly lower temperatures, the cold resistance of leather jackets is basically a decoration.
Therefore, the advantage of a long leather trench coat is that it can keep you warm without retaining your masculinity.
Moreover, because the leather trench coat is relatively wide in size, it can naturally accommodate more clothes than the other two types of short jackets, so it will not appear useless.
When it comes to keeping warm, it can also improve the layering effect.
In addition, the long leather windbreaker is better than any previous leather jacket in terms of matching methods.
There are many types of combinations and the methods are simple.
Walking on the street, you will find that out of 10 people wearing leather jackets, 9 of them have the same look. With their faces covered, you can tell who is who.
They are all the same even if the lights are turned off.
And when wearing a short leather jacket, it is difficult to have extra accessories on the upper body, which will be too exaggerated.
Therefore, while the long leather trench coat can satisfy a variety of styles, it is also compatible with accessories, so that you are no longer stuck in rock, dark or motorcycle style.
Like the recently popular streetwear sports style, it can also be paired with a leather windbreaker.
For a more casual look, pair it with a light-colored shirt and accessories.
Tuck your clothes into your pants and use accessories to fill up the space at the neckline.
This will not only make your legs look longer, but also make you stand out from other leather lovers when viewed from a distance.
