I actually really like this one I found at Urban Outfitters:
Silence & Noise Motorcycle Jacket - $128
The price isn't bad either. I'll have to check it out in person. I'm sure real-leather would be better, but my wallet would appreciate this deal more.
I haven't found any good middle-ground options, but if you're wanting to go "all-out", here's a gorge leather jacket by who else by D&G:
D&G Dolce & Gabbana - Fitted Leather Jacket - $1495 (ouch)
Have you found any good leather jacket options this season?

hi! i really want a leather jacket now too! haha i guess i am growing up! all the leather stores were on sale in the summer- i really regret not buying one then!
Just found this great leather jacket at Martin + Osa. This photo doesn't do it justice. My girlfriends and I all tried it on - totally flattering on all of our different body types. Oh and it's soooo soft.

SWORD always has beautiful jackets. They're carried by blaec.com.
Personally I prefer the one from Urban Outfitters because I like the collar better. I guess I was never fond of "nehru / band " collar type designs. You WILL get a lot of use out of it though. Many years ago I had a motorcycle type jacket like this and I wore it to death until the lining was ripped and the sleeves were worn away. I'd vote for the Urban Outfitters one plus its more budget friendly - hee hee
The dolce one is fab. Mike & Chris make some good ones..and Juicy has one that's pretty reasonably priced on shopbop.com!
i've also been wanting one forever too..i found a perfect one at forever 21 yesterday, but unfortunately it didn't feel right on me..too biker chick..love that urban jacket though, great deal!
the gap has a really sweet grey leather jacket for $298 this season. they also have another style of leather jacket: http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?searchCID=25781&pid=419016&scid=419016002&vid=-1
I didn't see the grey leather jacket on the site, but I saw it in store. good luck!
Love the purple and orange dress in that second photograph! I saw something very similar on vente-privee.com a few weeks ago though I let it go...Very sexy! Feel free to use me clairewestbridge@googlemail.com if you need a referrer. Claire XX

Hi! I'm portuguese and i also love leather jackets. I bought one this season at la redoute. Do you know this brand? It has excelent sales, really. My jacket cost 63 euros and it is made of real leather. XOXO
that's what I'm thinking, Dani!
I have heard of la Redoute, but I don't know where to get it. I don't think it's available in my area. :( Too bad, too, b/c it sounds like you found an amazing deal!

Hi!! I just love your blog...full of great information and tips. I, myself have been looking everywhere for a nice leather jacket and i think i found the "one." Its a motorcycle jacket from Ann Taylor and looks very nice and casual and best of all...its only $148 and if you get the People Style Watch magazine September 2008 issue, there is a 20% off coupon in there. I will be going there tomorrow to try it on and see how it looks. Hopefully it looks good cause i've been dying to get one. Hope you find something that you like!!
Amanda, first of all, thanks so much for your sweet comment - sorry it took so long to post. As for the jacket, you are a genius! Thanks for the tip...I'm loving that jacket!
-h - that's a good idea...I could find something vintage there!

I love leather jackets-but I always felt I looked too tough in them. But I realized now that I can have a rocker chick look with some other great accessories....this article helped me out http://www.laviecherie.com/Fashion/Accessories-and-Jewelry/Rocker-Chick.aspx
I found an amazing leather jacket on Ebay (everybodylovesvintage). It's black with a heavy collar and zigzag zipper. Very rocker chic. I'll cherish it forever. All for $15 INCLUDING SHIPPING! :)
Well! More like you, I am also a great fan of leather jacket. Though most of high quality leather jacket cost much higher than the one you have pictured out, but nonetheless this jacket looks quite great and beautiful. I am sure looking at your curiosity to buy a new jacket, you can go for it, but still if you need to review more leather jacket, you can find few of them here at Jacket Review
Regards,
Mike
