Autumn Leather Fashion Trends

Summertime is nearly over yet the joys of this season are still fresh in our minds. Hopefully most of us did take some time to refresh ourselves with a trip to the beach, our favorite lake or a hike or two with friends or family. Here in New England we revel in the fact that we have four distinct seasons and we are known to celebrate each one in a special way. My favorite is Autumn when the weather cools but remains comfortable, the skies are clearer and the night stars seem to shine brighter. It is also time to change our wardrobes in favor of the expectation of cooler temperatures ahead.

For those of you who also enjoy this season you most likely have a leather jacket or two in your closet and look forward to finally being able to slip it on not only for warmth but for the fashion and sensation that your leather jacket brings to you. Leather apparel is timeless; the sensation of the touch and smell of your jacket reminds you that what you are slipping into is just a bit more special than your other apparel. For both men and women your leather jacket looks, feels and smells good and you know it!

Probably the foremost characteristic of your leather jacket is its durability. Twenty-five to thirty years of seasonal wear is almost guaranteed with just a reasonable amount of care. Some jackets can last fifty years or more as you may have noticed while touring some aviation museums or classic motorcycle displays. Most leather products are built to last and seem to only get better with time. Jacket fashion seems to be cyclic as what may be “in” one year seems to leave the fashion scene for a few years but returns later to be “in” once again. Please note that the Hollywood scene seems to be telling us that black leather jackets are back in this year for both sexes.

The holiday season is fast approaching and you may want to consider giving a loved one or friend the gift of fashion that could last them a lifetime. Whether it is a Bomber or Biker jacket made of full-grain cowhide for that special guy or the soft touch of luxurious and colorful lambskin jackets or purses for your lady, we offer something to please everyone. You will not be forgotten for your thoughtfulness of the gift of quality!

At Shoreline Traders we pride ourselves in providing you the most up to date fashion as well as traditional styles. If you have been to our website http://www.shorelinetraders.com/, then you know that our prices are modest for both our apparel and accessories. Our styles and quality compare well with most of the major fashion stores both online and in-store. We are proud of our products and offer you a 100% satisfaction guarantee, as well as a custom made service, to meet your needs.

Autumn, what a great time of the year. I can’t wait for that first yellow leaf to fall!

Calling All Leather Fashion Lovers!

Calling All Leather Fashion Lovers!

This is my opening salvo on what I hope will be great discussions about leather fashion for both men and women. As large as our fashion industry is there seems to be a limited amount of feedback in this area especially when it comes to just what leather fashion to wear and how to wear it. Since both men and women look at this process differently I look forward to having the chance to cover both perspectives and for those who wish to promote this area of fashion to have the opportunity to join in the conversation.

During the weeks and months ahead let's develop a rapport on the subject of leather apparel and try to see where most of the appeal lies. Also, are there some vendors who you trust and would like to share with us? I hope so! Fine leather apparel just as good food seems to have a certain universal appeal. I look forward to discussing and sharing this common love.
