One of my favorite looks is finally hitting the streets in a big way. Recently I've been seeing denim trucker jackets worn as layers under outerwear. I love this look! (and have for some time). Here are some recent examples shot by GQ's new street photographer during NYC fashion week:
For the record, I've been rocking this for over a year now, but I'm an honest guy...I stole it from Kanye West, who has been pictured doing this as far back as 2008. Trend-setter? Love him or hate him, I think so!
If you're going to try this look, your best bet is to get a fitted denim jacket (preferably a vintage Levi classic trucker) and wear it buttoned, with your outerwear (darker in color and contrasting in fabric) left open.
If you're not into playing copy-cat, this can serve simply as an inspiring "new" way to wear layers. At the very least, it can help you think outside the box.
Yours in style,
SB

Noooooooooooooo @ SB..lol. J/K. That has been a major part of my wardrobe for a while now. I'm not going to lie, I took it from Ye too but I try to do more with it.....*keeping things under wraps until after April*
Half of my classmates were wearing this during my last school years in Germany. Somewhere around 93.
So much for the trend-setting Mr. West....
I have to admit, I may have been subconsciously influenced by Mr. West with the denim jacket as well. This fall/winter, I layered one under a down vest.
Yes, I'm a fan. When this is done right, it's a great look.
Its a good look as you can add anything to it and pull it off! might have to invest in 1. thanks for the post
