Ways to Make Your Leather Jacket Work Through Winter
Have you invested a ton of cash on the perfect leather jacket? But now you’re hoping you can enjoy its awesomeness for more than just a month or two.
Ahhh! Makes sense...
If you live in a warm climate, you've got nothing to worry about. If you don’t, here’s what you need to do to make this thing work. Where there’s a will, there’s a way for every situation.
Firstly, let’s put an end to this myth once and for all that leather jackets don’t work when the temperatures plummet. Leather jackets are the perfect jacket come rain or shine, cold or hot. A leather jacket is merely the outer layer.
Leather Jackets in Summer:
In the summer a leather jacket comes into its own because it is a cool, breathable second skin that transforms effortlessly all day.
Leather Jackets in Rainy Day:
Whereas in the winter, a leather jacket is ideal because as it is a second skin it is windproof, and if treated correctly, waterproof too.
Just don’t forget to dry your jacket properly when you come back inside again. The last thing you want is to put away a leather jacket wet - the leather won’t thank you for that error.
Leather Jackets in Snowy Weather:
You can even wear your leather jacket in Snowy season, but if you’ve treated it properly already, and if you treat it properly when you come in from the cold, a leather jacket is a perfect jacket to wear in the snow.
As, winter season is on its peak, delving further into the idea that leather jackets keep you warm, let’s turn our attention to a couple of ways a leather jacket will keep you toasty this winter.
LEATHER IS BREATHABLE
OK, so we touched on this briefly before. Leather is incredibly breathable thanks to its hydrophilic properties. Meaning that as we sweat throughout the day, the water evaporates from our skin. If you’re wearing non-breathable garments, that sweat gets trapped between the layers of clothing and your body, leaving you damp.
Leather doesn’t do that. Leather simply absorbs the water and dissipates it later. Isn't it COOL?
This indulgence of our sweat makes leather jackets the perfect jacket to regulate our body temperature because the leather stops us from getting cold and damp, nor hot and sweaty.
LAYER UNDER THE LEATHER JACKET
Leather jackets work perfectly when layered with warmer layers. Meaning just wear your leather jacket in any circumstances because the inner shell made of faux fur or quilted lining keeps you warm and cosy. All you need is to make sure you’re looking stylish.
