I'd recommend not putting money down on cheap (or fake) leather. You can get something much better looking and much better constructed if you save your money and stick to cotton and wool. At some point you'll have the opportunity to get a real leather jacket. When that moment comes you'll be very glad you saved your cash.

^I picked up one of their jackets, and it's extremely well made.

eternaldrake- thanks for the jeans advice. I'm thinking the Lees are the least wearable of the three at this point. Artist Denim makes full custom jeans now. I can even send measurements I want, and they'll cut the pattern. The Edo Ai denim would be a bit of a novelty, since it's pretty much unobtainable. But, I feel like I've done the dark indigo denim thing with my last two pairs (Roys and KMW), and feel like trying something a little different.
