But I do ride a motorcycle and my white leather jacket was one of my favorites. It was super easy to keep clean, I just wiped it down with a leather cleaner/conditioner as needed. I took off a lot of bugguts and road grime and the jacket held up great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841766 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 03:58:20 +0000 Deborah 841766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No advice but just wanted to say how lovely you would look in the lighter colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841759 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 03:50:52 +0000 Jules 841759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If it's the "closed" kind of leather, where the colour is almost a thin layer of its own, as a messy RATE type I'd be concerned about the colour wearing off on the shoulder where my bag hangs, and even colour transfer if I wore certain purses. Better to carry a hand bag/clutch that doesn't go on the shoulder. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841383 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 21:50:08 +0000 jenanded 841383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>gosh... now I am confused... will rely on the happiness factor in store I think the nude will look great with greys etc that I am leaning too, as well as plain blacks blues etc... alas with hail damage on legs I cant do light pants for work for an Angie-esque suit but... will report back! thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841365 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 21:18:55 +0000 Sarah A 841365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adding, even if it is an open pore leather it can easily be sprayed with a protectant (cadillac, kiwi are two brands) and this will help immensely with the stain factor. I have a yellow purse that went from impossibly delicate and hard to keep clean to awesome can even make it through a light rain by application of the cadillac spray. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841362 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 21:16:17 +0000 jayne 841362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess it depends on your lifestyle...Angie is obviously able to keep white things, although I would have to think twice, being a bit of a klutz and easy to distract. Because of my coloring though, I would still go for white....how does the neutral one look with your coloring? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841346 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 20:59:46 +0000 Antje 841346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you are not set on it being real leather, this is a *gorgeous* jacket. I tried it on (fits true to size) and almost bought it. It is beautiful and the price point is amazing - it looks at least twice as expensive.<br /> I can't comment on the endurance issue, but this price point probably makes a light jacket much easier to swallow, east least for me.<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bernardo-moto-jacket/3463843" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/be.....et/3463843</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841345 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 20:59:40 +0000 Angie 841345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a white leather jacket too - and it has appeared on YLF many times. Exhibit A. </p> <p>It is a WORKHORSE and I have had it for five years. It has not been professionally cleaned once. It still looks new, and I travel with it all the time. The blush moto has been worn a lot this year too. It has not got a mark on it.</p> <p>I wear lots of white - coats, jackets, bags, tops, shirts, jeans, trousers, footwear - and they all look pristine. I am careful though. And take good care of my things. I am a very neat and tidy person so this is not a stretch for me. I also do not wear foundation or dark lipstick so I don't get make-up on my clothes. </p> <p>Furthermore, I don't think things get as dirty as you think if you are mindful about it. My white jeans get quite dirty - and little paw prints are inevitable - but that's what the laundry cycle is for. </p> <p>I vote go for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841340 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 20:58:03 +0000 jenanded 841340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sarah! will have a look... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841336 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 20:54:52 +0000 Sarah A 841336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you know if it is (for lack a a better word) open or closed leather? I.e. does a water drop soak in or bead up? If it soaks in, I fear the jacket will be hard to keep from many stains. If it beads up a tad, you will be able to keep it clean easier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lightwhite-leather-jackets#post-841326 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 20:36:26 +0000 jenanded 841326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae's rae, and Anglie's blush moto leather jackets are truly lust-worthy... but how do they wear??? do they mark, get dirty etc etc... I have the choice of ONE leather jacket, dark or a beautiful pale nude that even the girls in the stores are drooling over... and there is a flash 25% off sale... I am just not sure of endurance... your thoughts? </p>
