Lately, I can’t get enough faux leather in my life. From knee-high boots and handbags to blazers and jackets, I want it all, despite having a closet that, if it could talk, would beg for mercy. My incessant need for all the faux-leather fashion and accessories is precisely how I ended up adding the Old Navy Water-Resistant Faux-Leather Biker Jacket ($70) to my virtual shopping cart (you can actually get it for $52 right now, because the retailer is taking 25 percent off all online orders). I found it while scoping out the brand’s new arrivals — and I’d be doing you a disservice not to spread the word. Ahead, I’m breaking down everything you need to know about the chic outerwear staple to decide whether you should add it to your shopping cart, too.
What I Love About the Old Navy Water-Resistant Faux-Leather Biker Jacket
What I love most about this motorcycle jacket is how comfortable it is. I feared the material would feel stiff, but it turned out to be the exact opposite. The faux leather is soft to the touch and features a grainy texture, which makes it look authentic.
Of course, the style is highly covetable, too. It features the signature details of a moto jacket, including an asymmetrical zipper, metal studs, a notched lapel collar, and zippered pockets (which were big enough to hold my iPhone 11 and keys, FYI).
The classic design means there are so many different ways to wear it. For now, while it remains cold as can be in the Midwest (read: single digits), I’ll wear a sweatshirt or long-sleeve underneath, but when it warms up, I’ll probably team it with a tank or tube top.
What’s Worth Noting About the Old Navy Water-Resistant Faux-Leather Biker Jacket
I usually fall somewhere between small and medium in Old Navy’s clothes, so sometimes I’ll order one of each to find my perfect fit and then return the one that doesn’t fit as well. In this case, I took a risk and ordered a size medium because I wanted a slightly oversize fit for layering, and that’s exactly what I got. For that reason, I recommend looking at the brand’s sizing guide and weighing that with your best judgment — or taking a page from my book and trying two.
Who Is the Old Navy Water-Resistant Faux-Leather Biker Jacket For?
The Old Navy Water-Resistant Faux-Leather Biker Jacket is perfect for anyone who wants to get on board the moto-jacket trend for under $100. It’s a great transition piece to take you from winter to spring, and it’s versatile, too, in that it’ll look just as good with jeans and sneakers as it will with a slip dress and heels.
