Leather In The Fall And Winter

Like many places in the U.S at this time of the year, we are getting ready for colder weather.  The emergence of cold weather has me thinking about the other pieces of leather clothing/accessories we will bring out to battle against the cold and rugged temperatures.

Jackets/ Gloves

Of course, the first clothing I think of is the leather jacket.  It is excellent for the fall days and the brisk fall evenings.  The fall weather can be unpredictable sometimes, which means it can go from sunny and warm (for the season) to rainy and cold at a moment's notice.  Leather jackets are great at being water-resistant, and this goes for when it is snowing.  The jacket will keep you dry and warm against the elements.  Not just that, leather jackets are very stylish.

Motorcyclists understand how cold the wind can be.  The brisk fall wind is bone-chilling when motorcyclists drive around town or on the expressway.  Wearing a nice leather jacket will help keep that cold wind out.  They will also wear leather gloves to protect their hands if the weather is cold and raining while driving a motorcycle, their hand's freeze, making gloves necessary.  So, leather gloves are the best choice.

Leather gloves are not just for motorcyclists.  Leather gloves effectively keep your hands warm and dry during the fall weather and will also add style to one's outfit.  Most leather gloves will keep your hands warm well into below-freezing temperatures.  They are also the perfect complimentary accessory to any style of jacket.  There are styles of leather gloves for more formal or business casual dress, but they will still keep your hands protected regardless of the style.

Pants

Going out to a football game or going out for a night on the town?  Leather pants are perfect for almost all activities.  Wearing leather pants makes a statement.  The person wearing them feels confident and assertive.  They are generally a tight fit but look luxurious and fashionable.  Leather pants still have water-resistant qualities like leather jackets, making them a must-wear item during the fall/winter season.

Shoes

Getting water in your shoes and getting your socks wet is the worst feeling, and it's even worse when it is chilly outside.  We have all been there, and no one wants to be there again.  Leather boots are the best way to combat the wet weather.  Many leather boot types allow people to express their style without sacrificing comfort.  No matter what kind of boot you are looking for, there are a plethora of leather boot styles for you during the fall/winter time.

No matter what leather item you choose to wear this fall/winter, it is essential to treat it with leather care products.  Our sister company, Mad Cow Leather products, has many products that can help treat and protect your leather.  Check them out at www.trymadcow.com.
