With the nights drawing in and the weather taking a distinct turn for the worse, many people will now be turning to their winter wardrobes. The t-shirts and shorts will be relegated to the bottom of the drawers, whilst sweatshirts and coats will be dusted off once again. For those in need of something new to keep them warm this autumn and winter, a leather jacket might not be the obvious choice, but they can actually be much more practical than you think.
A well-made leather jacket will help keep the warmth in and can offer a good level of wind proofing. Leather jackets also look fantastic when over the top of a jumper or hooded sweatshirt, so can be combined with other clothing to keep you even warmer.
However, to ensure maximum warmth, a sheepskin jacket is hard to beat. As long as you ensure the quality is top notch, a sheepskin jacket will provide excellent insulation, as well as being water resistant and durable. Many are also double stitched, which will help keep he wind out, and when your hands are tucked inside the pockets, it won’t take much time at all to warm up. And then, of course, there’s the iconic faux fur lining. Having that wrapped around you when it’s cold and bitter outside is sure to keep you nice and warm, particularly when the jacket is fully zipped up. If you’re looking for women’s leather jackets, then a Shearling is super stylish, sophisticated option that is much longer, offering warmth all the way down to your knees.
Whether you do opt for a sheepskin jacket or prefer the style of leather bomber jackets, one thing for sure is that the leather jacket isn’t just a fair weather garment. It can stand up to even the most inclement of conditions and ensure you remain warm in the process.
