The Best Leather Jackets of Fall 2024
As with everything in fashion, trends come and go and come back again (case in point: the recent resurgence of ballet flats). However, there are a few classic pieces that form the foundation of any good capsule wardrobe, and that includes a trusty leather jacket. That’s not to say I don’t love a jacket trend (shoutout to my 2018 teddy coat and 2020 shacket), but there’s something special about a classic leather jacket that’ll take a good outfit and make it a great one.
While I jump at the chance to wear my leather jacket year-round when weather permits, it’s always my go-to item when fall rolls around. I typically reach for my bomber-style leather jacket as the finishing touch to an easy fall look regardless of where I’m going. Whether that’s paired with an athleisure set for running errands or draped over my shoulders for an evening out, opting to wear my leather jacket is never the wrong choice. I tapped our editors and scoured hundreds of reviews to bring you the very best options if you’re still on the hunt for your go-to leather jacket. From blazers to bombers and racers to trench coats, these are them.
