If they bring you attention isnt that the point. If you have big armz they are goat. Obviously your whole style has to fit. Slim jeans, fitted shirt, black leather jacket hugging sleeves.

If u you rock casual fit clothes then forget it lol. Stick to baseball hats & timbs

Ah yes, the "32 year old virgin that shops at JC Penney and spends 23 hours a day on reddit" jacket.

OP: I own this jacket:https://shop.diesel.com/en/leather-j...TAUH_color=9XX

Wore the chit out of it until my arms got to big. srs.

Doesn't look or feel try-hard at all.

However, the jackets look cheap and not made of real leather. It seems to be a style that's trending. My jacket smells like it's been in a closet for 4 decades, slight smell of smoke, leather, and weed interwoven into the fabric.

This kind of look:



It's always been more of a punk/metal look to me, not so much biker. But this is a specific kind of leather jacket.
If you are a bit of a metalhead, you get a pass then.

Legit don't think I could pull it off lol

I’m a biker and don’t wear a leather jacket lol
It’s hard to find one that fits the chest and back and isn’t too long. They seem to fit a bit too snug for my liking. Think we spoke about this before but I stick to the old carhartts lol
