Very few people can pull it off, of course it's never those people you see wearing leather blazers.

Have a buddy who wears one and he really pulls it off but he's the only example I can think of. I look like a complete fool in a leather blazer, I will stick with my bomber jacket. Most folks end up looking like this

To avoid the wannabe mobster look while annoying SF even more, add some ostrich skin.

i dont think leather blazers look good on anyone in real life, only time i've seen one done kinda well was on brad pitt in fight club, and only because he is good looking and dresses 70's as hell in that movie.

I have one, but it has a belt and lots of "non-blazer" like features (including a fur collar). I think you need to have some serious 70's steez to get away with this.

They look good with a shirt unbuttoned the naval, a heavy gold chain, and lots of chest hair.
