Leather trousers were introduced for men
but have now become a fashion statement for both men and women. There are
thousands of different designs in leather pants both for fashion wear and
motorcyclists.
However, there are a few differing
guidelines to take into account when purchasing a pair for fashion or biker
wear. If purchasing for fashion wear; simply chose which design you like best
(you have to like what you wearing) but comfort is the main thing to focus on
especially if you are buying for general wear. Light weight leathers are best
for fashion buyers; usually lambskin or nappa. These leathers are comfortable
long lasting and look great.
If you are biker, there are a few key
points to look for when ordering the perfect leather trousers:
- Leather: for bikers, cowhide is the best leather to choose. It is thick and strong and can help protect bikers from burns and abrasions.
- Comfort: comfort is important when riding a bike so make sure you have bought the right size as you will feel uncomfortable if the leather pants are too tight or too loose.
- Armour: some trousers come with extra padding or armors which offer extra protection.
- Fit to you jacket: if you like wearing a leather jacket whilst riding you can get leather trousers which can attach to the jacket.
For anyone purchasing a pair it is
recommended to always order one size up, the material of leather normally come
up tight. So double check your waist measurements and order one size up from
what you would usually wear in jeans/trousers.
When it comes to length, most sellers leave
the trousers uncut from the bottom so you can cut according to the length you
prefer. Thos who prefer to wear their boots over the jeans will need to look
for a slim fit style and those who like having the trousers over their boots
will prefer a more loose fit. The thickness of the leather keeps you warm
during those cold winter days.
Leather pants are a perfect gift for both
him and her. For women leather has become a fashion statement and will never be
out dated and any rider will need a pair of leather trousers. They are perfect
for different weather condition and can minimize any abrasion or burns.
