GQ Recommends Leather Jackets For Every Budget | GQ

GQ | August 14, 2025



“Leather is evergreen.” GQ editors Avidan, Yang-Yi and Gerald are here to recommend leather jackets at every price point and suit every budget. From the below $500 range to the Celine splurge buys, the GQ Recommends team explores a wide range of leather (and faux-leather). Plus each editor takes the same leather jacket and styles it all their own.

    Boda Skins all day long guys! I just went in to Saint Laurent and honestly speaking the Boda Skins nappa is much much better, also John Varvatos too!!

    NEVER buy fake leather if you actually want to wear it. Only get faux leather if you’re trying out a new style. Real leather will last longer, feel better, and fit better every single time
