Ways To Wear: The Biker Jacket
Don an on trend yet timeless cable knit jumper underneath the biker and opt for a pair of wool trousers to smarten the look up. The versatility of woolen trousers shouldn’t be underestimated; they partner a shirt and tie as well as they do a cable knit and biker, making them a worthy addition to any wardrobe.
Finish this texture-heavy look with some slim brown leather boots. Make sure you give your trouser hems a couple of turns/rolls to really show them off:
- Burton Grey Cable Knit Crew Neck Jumper
- Asos Leather Biker Jacket With Borg Collar
- Browns Flannel Wool Trousers
- Selected Homme Rich Leather Boots In Brown
Look Two: Smart-Casual
Juxtapose against the biker’s edgy roots by pairing with smart-casual pieces. Forgo the blazer in favor of the leather and slip it over a slim Oxford shirt and knitted tie combination. Bring it up another sartorial notch by accessorizing with a neat tie bar that doesn’t threaten to overpower your neck wear.
The tie provides a strong pop of color against the black and white backdrop. Complement this with some burgundy suit trousers – the rich autumnal hue works extremely well with both the deep green tie and the black leather jacket. Finish with a pair of black double-monks, which offer something different to traditional brogue and Derby silhouettes:
- Uniqlo Men Oxford Slim Fit Long Sleeve Shirt+
- Lanvin Knitted Silk Tie
- J.crew Engraved Metal Tie Clip
- Topman Black Leather Biker Jacket
- Reiss Peter Formal Twill Trousers Bordeaux
- Topman Black Leather Monk Shoes
Look Three: The Transitional Period
Move away from conventional black leather and instead favor a grey woolen take on this classic.
Keep it casual with just a t-shirt underneath – its dark yellow coloring makes a subtle statement and works just as well within a rich autumnal palette as it does when the spring sun is shining.
