Corduroy varsity jacket - Like the collar a lot and mercifully free of branding, however, I had to size down one for the SLP black/white varsity and I'm unsure there's enough differentiation to purchase two 2.5K varsity jackets.
Slim jeans in calf leather. Not sure how one can pull these off in the wild, but in a weird way, they look extremely comfortable and I can imagine myself throwing on a t and letting it go. (Disconcertingly, the Frozen song just popped in my head.)

The corduroy jacket looks great. Will consider picking that up at some point since I was jealous whenever it was mentioned on non-US webstores. Also will consider the Jodhpurs to continue rounding out my Hedi boot collection. Wondering if Celine will continue the practice of bringing back more timeless pieces from past collections to sell alongside the trendier items. Not sure anything else from the actual Cosmic Cruiser collection currently on the US webstore caught my eye. Maybe one of the patterned shirts, but since I got the black palm trees patterned shirt from TDK more than likely I won't get anything.
I don't think slim leather denim trousers have to be that offputting to wear casually in the wild. I have a pair from Ann Demeulemeester that has a similar silhouette as those but has a higher waist and I think they are comfortable enough just to throw on. I love both wearing them out for going dancing and also just casually getting coffee with a friend. I think to pull them off casually you just replace them in an outfit you'd normally wear slim/skinny black jeans. Even the tshirt combo you mentioned sounds great to me. For me, I wore mine most recently with a Celine black nylon bomber, the Celine velour hoodie, a black nylon/wool turtleneck and the Celine chain harness camargue. I don't have a full outfit picture with the leather pants but this is what the top looked like for an idea.
On the leather trousers, I actually really like the like these leather leggings from TKP - I think the branding at the bottom would land below the sock line. The leather is so so fine and looks so comfortable.

I was enamored with them too.
I keep umming and ahhing about those ^ leather leggings. The thing that ultimately puts me off though is that as far as I can discern, the knees _will_ get (irreversibly) baggy.
I never could decide if I should get those leggings and considered buying them if they would emd up on sale, but now this has me deciding against it. Especially since I'd want them for going out and dancing in.
