The perfect leather jacket doesn’t just elevate your look — it wraps around your personality. But even the most luxurious leather can look off if the fit is wrong. At LVH Leather, every piece is made to feel like a second skin — timeless in style, flawless in fit.

Let’s walk you through how to get that perfect fit, so your jacket doesn’t just look good — it feels like it was made for you.

Know Your Body Before the Jacket

Every body is unique. Before shopping, take note of three key measurements: chest, shoulder width, and arm length. These help guide you into a tailored leather fit — not too tight, not too loose.

The jacket should hug the shoulders, taper slightly at the waist, and sit clean at the wrist and hip.

The Right Fit, Not the Tight Fit

A leather jacket isn’t a hoodie — it’s structure, not slouch. But that doesn’t mean it should feel stiff. A good fit means it contours to your frame, with just enough room to layer a tee or thin sweater underneath.

Sleeve Check: Stop at the Wrist

The sleeves should end right at your wrist bone — not past your hands. When arms are down, the cuffs should line up clean, without bunching. If sleeves are too long, the look turns sloppy. Too short, and it feels tight and dated.

LVH Leather jackets follow classic sleeve guidelines, blending precision and flow.

Shoulders: The Deal Breaker

If the shoulders don’t sit right, the whole look feels off. Seams should rest at the edge of your natural shoulder. Too far in and it looks small. Too far out and it looks borrowed.

Shoulder fit is the foundation of any jacket. Everything else will fall into place if you get this right.

Length Matters

Your leather jacket should end at your beltline or just slightly below. Biker and racer styles often sit shorter. Bombers and cafe racers go a bit longer. No matter the type, it should frame your body — not drown it.

A sleek, modern finish is key.

Don’t Forget Movement

Put it on. Zip it up. Move around. Can you lift your arms easily? Can you sit comfortably? If yes — you’re on the right track. A high-quality leather jacket like ours will mold to your shape over time — so allow just enough room for it to breathe with you.

Remember: real leather softens and adjusts, making the fit even better with wear.

Try It, Then Trust It

If you’re shopping online, don’t just guess — always check the size chart and compare it with your actual body measurements. Still unsure? Go for a brand that offers exchange or adjustment options, like LVH Leather.

Because confidence starts with the right fit.
