If you don't have a trusty leather jacket (or three) to last you the colder seasons, then your wardrobe is incomplete. Whether for male or female, the leather jacket has become more of a staple than ever, and while there are dozens of cheap versions on the market it's quality that will make any leather jacket stand the test of time - and even get better with age.
Enter Vincent and Vincent; a new Australian leathergoods label that launches their debut collection this month. Focusing on high quality materials and traditional hand-made construction, these pieces are made to last.
As well as the care that goes into every piece, Vincent and Vincent inject a cool-factor into their jackets that makes them all the more appealing. Collection One manages to encompass styles that range from vintage-inspired cropped biker jackets, to tailored leather evening jackets, without compromising the brand's essence or signature feel.
While most of Collection One is menswear orientated, two of the jackets are also available for women. Click on the gallery below to peruse the full collection lookbook, and if you're keen to get your hands on one of these unique pieces check out their website for more information and stockists.
