Long Leather Vests: Hip-Length and Duster Styles
A long leather vest falls to the hip or below, giving a long, lean line over jeans, leggings and dresses. This collection brings together our long leather vests for men and women, from slim women's long vests to longer men's styles, in real leather. Every long leather vest ships free across the USA and worldwide on orders over $150. Shop below, or see all of our leather vests for every rider.
How to choose a long leather vest
Decide on length: hip-length is easy to wear every day; longer duster styles make a statement. Slim cuts look elegant; relaxed cuts layer over knits. Check the length on the product page against your height.
Styling a long vest
Over a fitted top with skinny jeans or leggings and ankle boots, or over a knit dress. A belt at the waist adds shape.
Size and fit tips
Fit depends on the style. A fitted or laced vest should follow your shape without pulling at the closure; a cropped vest should meet the waistband of high-waisted jeans; a long vest should fall straight over the hips. Compare your bust and waist with the women's size chart on the product page. Side laces add a little room, and if you are between sizes, choose the larger one. Use our leather vest size chart if you are unsure.
Caring for your leather vest
Smooth leather needs little care. Wipe off dust and road grime with a soft, slightly damp cloth, let it dry naturally away from heaters, and condition it once or twice a year so it stays supple. Clean carefully around patches, hang the vest on a wide hanger and never put it in a washing machine or dryer.

What makes a good leather vest
Check five things before you buy any leather vest. The leather should be named - cowhide, buffalo, lambskin or suede - not just 'genuine'. The stitching should be even and tight, with no loose threads at the armholes. Snaps, zips and buckles should feel solid and close firmly. The lining should be sewn in neatly, and the pockets should close. Every vest in this collection is real leather, and each product page lists the leather, closures and pockets.
What to wear under it
In warm weather, a T-shirt, tank or henley. In spring and fall, a flannel, denim shirt or thin long-sleeve top. When it's cold, a hoodie or a light jacket, so size the vest to close over your thickest layer. Dark denim and boots go with almost every leather vest, on the bike and off it.
Wearing it through the year
From summer evenings to cold winter mornings, a leather vest earns its place. Wear it over a tee when it's warm, add a hoodie or flannel as the temperature drops, and switch to a puffer or sherpa vest in real cold. Condition the leather twice a year and it will keep looking good season after season.
