Hah! I wouldn’t buy a new one NOW, but mostly because it’s too warm pretty much all year long where I live. Sweat and leather don’t go together. In a different place and in the late 80s — early 90s when I was a kid leather jackets were a THING. My last two leather jackets were both from second hand stores, and I wore them till they started falling apart.

Interestingly, today somehow it’s more “okay” to wear leather boots (at least in the regions of the world with REAL winters where one can’t survive wearing fabric shoes all year round) than leather jackets.
