How has your taste in leather jackets changed over the years?

I keep hearing that, might have to give one a try. I think reddish browns might also fall in that territory.

Yes, especially since the colour varies quite a bit depending on the lighting

I guess it depends on the situation and weather. As I get older, I’m wearing g more weather appropriate clothing. Not so much the unlined leather when it’s 20 degrees out, more like the mid-thigh parka if you know what I mean.

WRT leather, I’ve gotten more of an appreciation for subtle dark or oiled browns, and appreciate (some) aging. Some leather, or rather, some owners seem to take pride in punishing their hides. Yes, it has an appeal, but some nicer jackets look best when they’re allowed to age gracefully. Just my 2 pesos I suppose.

Also, when weather is poor (snowy, cold, rainy), I’m looking for something that’s made for it. I have a few vintage Fjallraven, Filson etc where before I may have tried to sodieresis through in a cross zip Schott.

Taste has gotten a lot more expensive over the years.....

But changed? Not really, I'd say expanded but I still enjoy the same styles I've always had.
