My Casual Sunday in rock'n'roll leather jacket... /  by Bartosz Gajec

Last Sunday I felt a little excited, full of energy and free! Unusual state for me so I thought I will grab my camera, put on my favourite All Saints rock'n'roll jacket and go to Shoreditch to take some photographs. When I thought about what to wear I thought about neutral colours and simple outwear but still something with cool edge. 

I broke the smoothness of leather jacket with textured thick black jumper, add simple casual washed jeans and Knapp officer type boots. Ray ban wayfarer's was the final touch to 'I don't care what I wear but I still look cool' outfit!

On Cs: All Saints Habanero leather jacket, skinny jeans Levi's 510, Uniqlo thick wool textured jumper, Knapp vintage boots, Ray Ban wayfarer sunglasses.

Photographs taken in Shoreditch London mainly on Boundary Street.

My favorite colour to wear is black, brown and blue. I tend to wear all black a lot, I just feel very comfortable in that colour. I then contrast finishes of leather, textured jumper and smooth jeans.

I found this leather biker jacket on eBay and bought it on an impulse as I did not know the brand. I liked that design is so similar to Lewis Leathers but without a big price tag. The Brand is called Izzue and it is located in Hong Kong. Someone basically bought the jacket in Asia and bring it here, decided that actually he/she did not like it and sold it...to me...So now I own a quite original jacket that you can't buy in UK. EBay is full of these kind of treasures, you just need to research a bit.

The fit was right for slim fit small size but unfortunately sleeves were too long so I had to give them to my tailor located in Bricklane to shorten sleeves as well as slim them a bit. I also removed waist belts with buckles as I do not like them, heading towards more simplistic and minimal look of the jacket. I do love the cool zip detail on one of the sleeves. See results yourself.

On: Izzue leather biker jacket, Uniqlo turtle neck jumper, Levi's 510, Knapp boots, Rayban 2140 sunglasses.
