I only need one leather jacket, right?

Right?

This has been tempting me, but I tell myself it will make my huge arms look even bigger.

The link goes to another MN page?

However, on the subject of leather jackets I maintain that you need two in your wardrobe. Black and brown, preferably, though I have seen a navy one I quite like. Mine have been in my wardrobe for at least 3 years and look better than ever. Buy it, buy it now.

I have three, but they're very different from each other: a cream leather trench coat, an oxblood classic leather jacket and a tan leather blazer. Actually, I have a fourth: a black biker jacket which is technically my daughters, but which I wear more than she does. I get plenty of wear out of all of them.

The two you have linked to are quite similar. I think you'd get more use out of one in a different colour or style, or both.

OP the witchery one is nice and good value.

Unless the navy colour is more obvious or meant to be more subtle I can't see it is actually navy in that pic!

Of course you do, if you want them Grin.

I have three...but they're more different from each other than your examples. A soft grey biker, a chocolate brown blazer, and a short, fitted, plain style in cranberry. They all do different jobs and none is new.

Actually, I have four if I include the battered oversized one that belonged to my uncle 30 years ago. They get better with age :).

I personally don't want more than one colour eg black (maybe navy or dark grey) but depending on your budget you can easily get nice ones cheaper and/or a more expensive one.

More different than the op's two examples, rather than SuperFlyHigh's, who also has three different styles. Sorry, I seem to be particularly muddled today :)
