Does anyone Else love The whole black leather Jacket and Denim Jeans look of the late 80s and Early 90s?

[u/Ill-You-3459]

to me it’s the coolest Rock look ever it just looks cool and badass

[u/fckingmiracles]

Very unisex as well!   

Doesn't happen so much anymore. 

[u/inelectricnoir]

Yeah I agree. I always feel like a dork when I rock this cause I feel like I'm cosplaying 50s hepcat-greaser but this is a great archive of photos.

[u/DavidLitBlunt → u/inelectricnoir]

Yeh, bit of a bigger fan of the 50’s version. Better silhouette.

[u/clarencenino]

Love it. Also the biker jacket with a floral or baby doll dress and Dr Marten boots.

[u/thunderous_student → u/clarencenino]

I love that pin upy style that I used to see in magazines as a kid but I never see real people dressed that way very rarely do you ever see bumper bangs or anything like that anymore. I think the last gasp of it was Amy winehouse. Everything just got cheaper in the past 20 years now if you were a nice pair of pants and a button-up shirt that doesn't have a logo on it people think you're dressing up. The bar is in hell

[u/industrialmeditation → u/clarencenino]

So inspired and original.

[u/Potential-Ant-6320]

I feel like the classic look is the biker jacket with a whitebt shirt.

[u/Surfbrowser]

There was something timeless about that combination. It was more than just clothing.

For me, it expressed a sense of being comfortable with who I am, confident in my own identity, and not needing to impress anyone.

[u/No-Writing5017]

Still bumping it

[u/HereOnCompanyTime]

This is still a normal outfit and has been for decades. A lot of fashion just depends on where you live now rather than the decade.

[u/WindowPixie → u/HereOnCompanyTime]

Yeah, it’s just the cut of the jeans and style of the jacket that change

[u/DeeSnarl]

I mean, I was an 80s headbanger, so yeah.

[u/comfymustardsweater]

Me, living in the PNW

This is still an outfit you see when colder weather comes. lol

[u/WindowPixie → u/comfymustardsweater]

Once got into a crowded apartment elevator at 8pm on a rainy Friday in Vancouver. Six occupants, every single one wearing some version of black leather jacket and blue jeans.

[u/augustrem]

Yes! And I loved it when Jessica Jones wore in in the 2010’s and then was sad when the whole internet roasted her for her “ugly jeans.”

[u/No_Blacksmith_2591]

Uh i don't think i ever left that look behind. maybe slightly darker jeans is all that changed.

[u/Tripping_On_Mars2007]

People still do that bro. The rockstar gf aesthetic is popular now.

[u/FlickrReddit]

Huh.

Shoulda been around in the mid-50s. Along with the rumbling Chevy hotrods, you got switchblades and the stink of Brylcreem.

[u/GarysCrispLettuce]

I had both in the late 80s. I think I looked ridiculous. It didn't work on everyone, lol.

[u/ZooterOne]

Yes of course! Timeless look. (Since the '50s, anyway.)

[u/ResponseRelative6370]

Drew Barrymore 😍

[u/supremefun]

I am more of a flannel guy but this looks cool on the people who can rock it.

[u/TriviaWinner]

I saw a lot of this look in Europe last week.

[u/Sleepy_cheetah]

Omg Drew is so beautiful! 🤩

[u/littlelordgenius]

Saxon wrote a song/album about it.

[u/werdnurd]

The Neighties are my forever favorite fashion period!

[u/JimmyJooish]

When I was a kid this was the stereotypical outfit for bullies and all around assholes. You know how they took a hot girl and gave her glasses to make her a nerd? They gave a guy a leather jacket to make him a bad boy.

[u/AdeptRestaurant8097]

I hate the oversized jackets, the fit of the jeans of that time, and the faded/ripped look. Dark and straight leg or boot cut with a proper sized jacket is a great look in imo.

[u/deepsigh8]

Yes

[u/sultan_of_gin]

This was my look as a teen in the late 00’s lol. Was a big fan of 80’s pop culture

[u/ChaseC7527]

honestly a pretty good combo but arrest me, for I prefer indigo.
