They are def classics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764838 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 19:20:57 +0000 Mo 764838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mochi, you just reminded me my high school boyfriend had a bright red leather moto back in the mid 80's - he wore it everywhere!<br /> And yes, they've been around since Brando and Dean were wearing them in the movies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764826 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 18:50:23 +0000 Ginkgo 764826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone! Glad to know I'm safe with the leather, and I will try on the knit one to see if it's a perfect fit and then maybe wait for a sale. Must restrain the wild shopping impulses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764701 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 15:28:23 +0000 Mochi 764701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a crush on a boy in college partly because he had the coolest black leather moto jacket with zippers everywhere! He was Japanese with a spiky punk haircut, skinny jeans and had great taste in music (thanks to him, I started listening to The Jam). He's a clinical psychologist now but I hope his moto is stashed away somewhere in the back of his closet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764683 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 14:59:16 +0000 Mellllls 764683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>for me, a moto jacket is just part of my style, whether it's in or not. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764682 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 14:57:46 +0000 rae 764682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have they gone out of style since the 50s? They've at *least* been strong since the punk era. I think we are all safe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764670 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 14:42:51 +0000 Diana 764670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A good LEATHER moto jacket will always be in style, particularly if it has "classic" moto styling. I am not so sure about some of the trendier fabrications out there, though, like boucle or ponte knit. Still, I think even the trendy versions still have a lot of life left in them and you could probably wear it for a few years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764651 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 14:05:01 +0000 Karie 764651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been in the stores shopping for fall/winter/just plain shopping and I have seen a lot of them. They are very figure flattering so I would think they'll be in style for a long time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764636 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 13:49:11 +0000 Angie 764636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A classic. It has HIGH longevity. I have been wearing one since the '80s. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764613 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 13:06:08 +0000 Anonymous 764613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Janet said and good leather gets better with age. Invest away! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764609 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 13:02:27 +0000 Janet 764609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I believe they are a classic. I have been wearing some variation or another of moto styles for 20+ years, and I intend to continue! I also find them very flattering and compatible with my style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764605 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 12:58:15 +0000 April 764605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this style as well and hope it sticks around.</p> <p>I know Angie has worn hers for years. It's probably true that they go from being trendy-hot and easily available to being less prominent, without ever looking truly dated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764579 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 11:48:01 +0000 Raisin 764579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought mine about 4 years ago and not really knowing if it was in style, but seems like they stay around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764539 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 08:32:25 +0000 Lyn D. 764539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I only recently discovered this style, so I hope it is around for a long time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764529 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 07:00:55 +0000 catgirl 764529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hopefully forever since I've acquired quite a collection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764523 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 06:26:23 +0000 RandomThoughts (Andrea) 764523@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>"In" or "out" moto jackets will always be super cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764519 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 06:09:17 +0000 Deborah 764519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the moto style jacket is possibly one of those timeless items? However I will defer to those more in the know </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-much-longer-will-moto-jackets-be-in-style#post-764517 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 05:56:55 +0000 Ginkgo 764517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the style and it's flattering on me, last winter I bought a cognac leather one, and am now considering one in knit, but don't want it to be out of style next winter. Two years ago I started reading YLF and everyone was talking about moto jackets then...so will we be good to go next year also? </p>
