Women’s Pink Leather Biker Jacket

Women’s Pink Leather Biker Jacket

Soft pink leather cut to the standard biker pattern. The zip runs across the front at an angle, the lapels fold back, and straps sit across the shoulders. The colour is the only thing about it that is unusual.

Real leather, not a leather look

Worth saying early, because plenty of people search for a pink leather look jacket or a pink faux leather jacket. This one is real leather. If a leather look was what you wanted, this is not that jacket, and the price reflects the difference.

How pale the pink actually is

It is a soft pink rather than a bright one. Under shop lighting it reads almost blush. Outdoors it shows more clearly. So if you searched for a light pink leather jacket or a pale pink leather jacket, this is the shade you had in mind. A hot pink it is not.

What it is made of

Leather outside, viscose lining inside. Viscose is the smooth lining that lets a jacket slide on over a jumper rather than gripping your sleeves.

The collar, the zips and the straps

A lapel collar that folds back rather than standing at the neck, so it frames whatever you are wearing underneath. The front zip sits off centre in the traditional biker way. Zipped cuffs, two pockets at the waist and one inside. Straps run across the shoulders, which is the detail that keeps it reading as a biker rather than a pastel jacket.

Sizing

Leather does not stretch across the shoulders, so start with that measurement. Measure round the fullest part of your chest over a t shirt and use the table on this page rather than your usual size. Sizes run XS to 3XL.

How to wear a pink biker jacket

Keep the rest plain and let the colour carry it. Black, white or denim underneath. Pink leather fights anything patterned and it fights other pastels, so give it a quiet background.

Looking after it

Pale leather shows marks that black hides. Deal with them while they are fresh using a damp cloth and cold water. Condition it once a year. Keep it out of strong sunlight, which fades a coloured hide faster than it fades black, and never on a radiator.
