Everyone loves a good leather jacket, including Ree Drummond. "I really love that kind of caramel-colored leather that's lightly distressed and not too perfect," she says. "I love that nice worn leather." And just like a casual jean jacket or a stylish suede jacket, leather jackets are seen as the universal symbol of cool Americana. And if you’re looking for the best leather jackets for women this season, we’ve got you covered with our top picks right here.

Leather jackets rose to fame amongst aviators in the early 1900s and transitioned to mainstream popularity in the 1950s thanks to stars such as Marlon Brando and James Dean. From there, they were inundated as a symbol of rock and roll by musicians in the '70s and '80s. Today, their popularity is more generalized! Leather jackets are worn and enjoyed by all types of people—whether as a spring jacket or something more cozy like a fall coat. And depending on where you live, you can layer them all through winter, too!
