“This is my favourite. It’s a cool play on the classic bomber jacket. I loved it because it’s both brown and black, and a lot of times when you’re shopping for leather, the decision is: do you go brown or do you go black? It has a really old-school, old- Hollywood, James Dean look to it. It’s simple and not too embellished.”
