Debating on purchasing one of the following three jackets. Personally, which would you opt for (if any at all)? Also, how would you rank them? Thanks!

I don't like any of these, would get something else unless you have a lot of outerwear already and are looking for something unusual.

I mean, I kind of like the one with the blue peacock, I guess, but what does it matter what I like? If you want a velvet bomber with a big peacock on it, you *really* can't ask the internet for opinions. Get what you want, and if you're still not sure, you don't really want it.

Sleep on it. Give it a few weeks. If you really want one of these, you'll still want it then.

Can't say I like any of them. BUT, different regions of the world have different styles. So while those would all look very odd in most parts of the USA where I live they might be perfectly acceptable where you live.

Check out the website for Aero Leather in Scotland to get a sense of the category. They may not be in your price range but at least you’ll see what authentic (not fashion forward) bombers look like.

Avoid any leather jackets made in Asia (except some workwear brands from Japan and possibly Korea).

To be honest, I dont really like any of these, but if I had to pick one, I would go with the third one as it would be a little easy to pull off compared to the other two.
