Ok, already deep into November and not even a sign of snow in the forecast... we're already winning! Now to take advantage of these days that Mother Nature has bestowed upon us with some style basics every guy should have in their fall arsenal. Beanies are obvious, bomber jackets are vital, and a sick pair of chelsea boots will quickly outshine your go-to summer-wear. The one piece guys seem to be most afraid of dropping some serious dough for though is leather outerwear.
With so many brands offering their versions of leather [read: pleather], we have endless options of low cost substitutes, which even I admit are tempting. Have you ever invested in a really great leather jacket though?! The feeling of the weight and design that comes along with a leather outerwear piece is undeniable. For me, Diesel Black Gold is one of those brands that is a no brainer when shopping for beautifully designed jackets... and really we shouldn't be surprised coming from the Italian owned brand that is known for their rocker-chic esthetic.
I'm kind of stuck on the moto-cross version of leathers right now and only because it gives this Texas boy an instant "bad-ass" appeal. This one from Diesel Black Gold is from their spring-summer 2015 collection so unfortunately is no longer available online but there are tons of options that are pretty similar in their current fall-winter collection... like this black Laxony Leather Jacket. Pieces like these will give an instant strut to your walk so invest, invest, invest!
