    My wife has recently bought a pair of Leather jeans on Ebay, they look fab on her but I don't see too many wearing leather in this country. Even when the winter comes, not too many wear them, I see that the sheepskin shops are closed so there isn't really a good apecialist shop to get them from either

    Do you have a question??

    Topshop, Urban Outfitters and the likes have had leather leggings/skinny jeans in for the last two years, and they're gonna feature this winter again I'd say. Already seeing a good bit of leather in the stores here. They're not exactly easy to wear, so not everyone wears them.

    And? Sorry, but I'm not getting what your post is actually about.

    I got a pair of bootcut leather trousers a couple of years ago.
    Brilliant quality and look amazing. They're a size 12 but look fab on. I definitely get the most compliments when I wear them.
    Not as hard to wear as most people think. And I'm not adventurous with my fashion so it's not like it's the norm for me.

    As my user name suggests, I love wearing leathers and I usually dress in full black leather when the weather starts to get cooler. As a male, wearing leather jeans may be somewhat unusual, but I don't really care what people think. I have occasionally seen other men and women wearing leather jeans, so there are a small number of us out there.

    sorry about that, the only point i'mm making is that not too many people, (Women or men) in this country wear leather, especially leather trousers. They are great for cold weather and look fabulous on women it just seems that even when they were big in fashion about 10 years ago now, nobody seems to have worn them at that time much either, maybe to clubs or partys but not out in general wear. They are even more scarce now with the closure of these shops

    Anyone who does alterations/dressmaker could do that for you.

    Thank you for the advice. I went to the zipyard and they were able to fit the new zip
