MANILA, Philippines - What is it about the leather jacket that makes it pretty much the wardrobe staple of the millennium? Well, there’s the attitude — it is one of the strongest sartorial statements you can make — plus a long, very cool history of people and characters that favor this edgy, sexy, “rebel (with or) without a cause” look.
From James Dean to James Bond, The Matrix to Mad Max, Uma Thurman in Kill Bill to Olivia Newton John in Grease, the leather jacket remains ever so close to our fashion hearts. Creative liberties have taken the leather jacket on a stylish ride — always good news for current sartorial rebels — and this season, Freego fires up the chill with its own uber-trendy take.
Slim cut, with a spread collar and zip cuffs, these numbers definitely have that cool factor without trying so hard. The brand’s faux leather jackets for men and women feature an asymmetrical front-zip closure, silky leopard print interior, and angled dual-zip front pockets.
Guys can channel their inner bad boy with black or brown choices, while girls can stay chic and sexy despite being wrapped up for the cold weather with a green and cream combo or fire red jacket. It’s a no-brainer to pair it with your perfect-fitting Freego jeans, but don’t hesitate to toss it over a shirt and tie or statement tee.
Freego leather jackets are the ultimate way to turn up the heat in the coming colder months.
