The best types of leather jackets are as soft as butter, well-fitting at the shoulder, and preferably under £1K. The latter is surprisingly hard to find as as soon as brands start to incorporate the luxe fabric, price tags shoot ups.

Luckily, as the leather jacket has evolved into a wardrobe staple, high street brands have blessed us with more affordable versions that look so much more refined than they might have done a few years ago within the same price bracket. Finding a high-street leather jacket that fits this description is about looking for jackets that champion the small details. Thoughtfully positioned pocked will add a utilitarian touch, whilst hardy zippers will streamline the silhouette giving a polished effect.
@lindseyholland_ in Whistles’s much-loved bonded leather jacket. Real leather jackets on the high street are still not going to be what many of us would consider as “affordable” and you’re still looking at price tags of £300 or up in many instances, but that’s still a whole lot less than your average designer style. It’s also always worth checking out pre-loved stores for secondhand styles, or to go out thrifting! Leather is incredibly durable, and often gets better with age, so we highly recommend having a browse on Ebay or Vinted if you’re in the market. But, if you’re tight for time and know that this is a product you’ll get heaps of wear out of into the future, we’ve scouted out the very best high street leather jackets available to buy right now.
