Finding the perfect jacket for spring is nearly impossible, especially in Wisconsin. One day it’s sunny and 75, and the next weather forecast brings snow back on the table. From my experience, layering in the spring works the best. These comfy jackets are perfect for any spring weather you might encounter.\
Leather Jackets
Leather jackets are edgy, chic, and classic. They are ideal for not only warmer days when paired with a white button down or sophisticated tank, but also chillier days when paired with thicker layers underneath. No matter what you pair it with, a leather jacket is the ultimate statement piece.
