Leather jackets are a great choice year‑round — including summer. The key is choosing the right cut, leather type and lining. In this guide we’ll show you what to look for and how to pick the best summer‑ready jacket for you.
What leather jacket for summer?
For warm days, opt for lighter, softer leathers and designs that allow air circulation. Minimalist cuts and unlined or lightly lined jackets work best.
Types of leather
Suede — soft, breathable and ideal for dry weather.
Nubuck — velvety to the touch with a refined, matte look.
Light full‑grain — thinner hides offer comfort and durability in one.
Lining — do you need it in summer?
A full lining is comfortable but can be warmer. For summer, choose breathable linings (e.g., viscose) or consider partial lining that improves comfort without overheating.
Cuts that work well in summer
Minimalist jacket — clean lines and fewer metal details for less weight.
Trucker — casual, structured and easy to style with tees and chinos.
Aviator — slightly looser cut; choose a lightweight version for warm days.
