Hello dear how r u

[@TomRNZ]

I always had a black leather jacket in my 20s. It didn't really even occur to me that any other colour was an option. Then one day, about eight years ago, I went into a cool vintage clothing store to see if I could find a black leather jacket as my old one had seen better days. As I was looking through the rack, this dark brown one caught my eye. I tried it on and it was the perfect fit (which NEVER happens), and I bought it instantly and have worn it ever since. It's my favourite item of clothing.

[@AeroEnthusiast]

Dark blue leather jackets (look like back w/ blue shines) are so underrated in my opinion

[@connorism69]

Agreed. I actually saw some guy with a quite dark purple jacket that looked amazing. A bit of colour can definitely work.

[@hades.97]

It's cool

[@anthony99900]

Agree as well. I own an Italian made navy blue it looks black but it’s dark blue. Love it

[@randysuess8821]

Found both colors in well fitting jackets at an incredible price, so I bought them both!

[@dongrumpy-old-man4190]

My years of experience with leather in short: 1.browns-shows stains, dirt, professional leather cleaners have limited results. 2. suede-I ended up with small leather fibers all over my shirts and the finish was not as durable. 3.black-hides dirt and stains, durable, more bang for the buck (but browns are prettier). Therefore, I would go with black, maybe a VERY dark brown.

[@tastybrownie7448]

You just gave us more useful information than rmrs in all his videos combined, lol. Thanks. You should be the one with a KZbin channel.

[@AznJsn82091]

I got a leather jacket that's dark brown under good lighting but could also pass as black. Gives you the best of both worlds!

[@nazmulalif4014]

same pinch

[@igorcarvalho2557]

I got my first leather jacket as a gift for my 20th birthday. I still wear it to this day (13 years later). It is in a beautiful dark brown, and many people think it's black from a distance. Since then, I got myself a black and a dark red as well, but the brown is still my favourite. I take good care of it, and thus it has aged very well.

[@rickocconnell9056]

Off black colour is good. Or dark brown.

[@bradleydavies4781]

Nothing like a seal brown A2 bomber jacket.

[@yannickvankerckhoven7356]

@@igorcarvalho2557 wait your leather lasted 13 years??. I got a nice black leather jacket for my 18th Birthday at the end of 2017. I have it for like 4 years. And just now it's starting to get some sort of patina. And I already have 2 leather patches on because I fell of my bicycle and there was a tear. It's good quality but I can't imaging a leather jacket lasting for 13 years. I bet you got a really cool patina.

[@miroslav1129]

I think that the jacket at 3:27 is the coolest one of them all, reminds me of that coat Bane had in Dark Knight rises. The fur looks awesome.

[@operamatthew]

[@OldNavyGuy]

I have 10 leather jackets and wear them all. Four Navy G-1 flight jackets: two dark brown from my career as a carrier pilot, one plain and one with patches, one in a dark brown suede calfskin with no fur collar and another in black leather; a gorgeous Italian black leather flight jacket from when I was an airline pilot; three dress leather jackets (a black and a brown that can replace a sports jacket and black Alfani); and two suede bomber jackets in gray and olive. There’s nothing like a leather jacket!

[@dham629]

I have several shades of both leather and suede jackets in black, brown, tan, beige and taupe. I find myself favoring the browns more now, because of the variety of shoes I have to match with it vs a pair of black shoes or boots. A black leather jacket is so common and basic, that just about everyone has one and black shoes. Brown stands out with other softer, lighter and darker colors in your wardrobe where you may not want to something as strong as black shoes. Also paired with a nice brown or tan leather laptop bag/briefcase.

[@rickocconnell9056]

Yes dark brown is as dark as I'd go. I don't like black. A really dark brown that could be nearly mistaken for off black is ok to. Brown is more adventurer like, dashing and suave. But I don't like light brown. The brown has to be dark brown

[@ralphmarkasher]

Hey Marine, I have both an A2 that was my Dad's and a G1 I got when I flew with the Navy as an exchange officer from the Army.

[@beachdaddy5588]

For me personally, brown's the winner. Reason being is that I am relatively pale with dark blonde hair and beard as well as blue eyes. I have found that black gives me a very high contrast to my natural look. It basically makes what's white look even whiter. Whereas a darker brown (especially dark brown i.e. mahagony brown) complements my beard and hair more, making it a more fitting look.

[@paulmathers6753]

Olive is a great alternative colour [not brown, not black, and not really green], particularly if you have a good texture

[@kennethcochran5277]

I love this video. This is so helpful for men to look handsome. Reminder: Be careful, leather jackets are too hot to wear in the summer. Dehydration & heavy sweating are my concern for many people.

[@captnrobvious47]

I have a black leather jacket from a leather store near me that closed down recently. Got lucky and only had to pay $75 instead of $250. I love it, I look fantastic in it, but it would be nice to mix it up a bit with a brown one if in the mood for more rugged, earthy look instead of slick and sharp. I miss my old WWII Bomber jacket. :"( That old thing had some character.

[@mohtishamraza2113]

[@gordonbrandt9739]

I have one pure leather jacket-Marc of New York- it's a black straight cut jacket, not moto or biker style, love it. You can wear it to almost any non-formal event, it is quilted so not really a warm weather item. I do have two faux leather jackets (Target source) both are a moto style one in each brown & black. I use them as a causal jacket & they get a lot of wear here in Colorado. They fit, I like them & they fit my daily style. Would love to replace them with real leather of similar style but you buy what you can afford.

[@douglasmusic4797]

I have 3 brown lether jackets and 2 black. But if I'm honest with myself I only ever wear the brown ones. Black still looks good though :)

[@kopesetik]

I've got a black leather jacket that I've had for decades. I love it. I bought a brown suede one about a year ago. I find the brown is much harder to work into an outfit. I bought brown suede boots because I felt my black leather shoes clashed. But the shoes are a different shade of brown. Never had this problem with my black jacket. Black for the win

I’ve been rocking a Black Leather Jacket for 2 years now and it still looks brand new, I also have a brown one of similar quality that doesn’t age as well...

[@robtyman4281]

Not all guys like the pristine 'just like the day you bought it' look. In fact many guys prefer the 'worn in' look, while a few even go for the distressed or beaten up look. This can look more interesting and more individual than the 'creaseless' brand new look. Then there are guys who will ALWAYS prefer to buy a used or second hand jacket, rather than buy a brand new one. This is for the same reason that some guys like worn in leather jackets. It gives a more cool feel and many guys prefer this, as well as the 'individuality' that such jackets project. They make the owner feel like no one else has a jacket like their one.

[@nicolasmogollon9253]

Gray o dark blue!!! It seems to me that when you can't buy more than one, those two colors give a lot of flexibility.

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Agreed!

[@MtnSmithy]

I always found that black leather looks more stylish in general BUT I personally wear brown leather simply because it works better with my hair and eye color. Plus, brown leather just feels more casual, which fits most situations for me.

I feel like black leather leather jackets exude more of a mysterious "bad boy" vibe, whilst brown embodies more of a heroic, dependable vibe. Essentially anti-hero versus hero aesthetic. As corny as that may sound lol. In terms of "sexiness" I do think black probably does that the best-- BUT brown I think is a much more handsome and hearty look. Both are incredibly viable, really.

[@albertmanuel5028]

You need both. I have a black Schott made with Shinki horsehide and a Butterscotch made with Horween brown horsehide. My next will be an olive from Aero or Field Leathers.

[@javierdiazsantana]

Since here in Mexico each leather (Actual leather) jacket costs 70 dollars i am able to have a plethora of different leathers and colors. I now have a lamsbkin band collar in light brown / tan, a pebbled cowhide band collar in black, a spread collar bomber in two tones of suede (Chocolate brown and a very light color) and finally a black biker jacket. That is a nice variety of leathers for different situations. I am also thinking to dye the light brown one to a slightly darker shade and make it look like a vintage patina teacore leather jacket.

Great video Antonio. I think it depends on the look you are going for. Black is timeless and easier to dress down. I own a brown D&G leather jacket. In my opinion it is harder to dress, but the feedback I've got compared to the black leather jacket I own is that it's more stylish. And I live in a stylish city (Melbourne).

[@tastybrownie7448]

Is the feedback from your friends or random strangers. Our friends tend to sugarcoat things because they don't want to hurt our feelings. Strangers will often be brutally honest. Also, go to places with a lot of single women and see how many of them flirt with you without you initiating it. That is a great test also.
