First look: Comfort and style
In her first look, Yaroslava pairs the leather pants with a chunky gray knitted sweater with wide sleeves, another growing trend known for its practicality and coziness.

Second look: Elegance and boldness
In the second look, the athlete builds on the same leather pants but gives them a more refined, urban character.
A white classic shirt paired with a blue knitted vest adds structure to the outfit and creates an interesting contrast of textures.
A wide-brimmed black hat and chunky boots with a thick sole introduce a touch of rebellion and confidence. This option works great for city outings, visiting trendy spots, or informal business meetings.

Why leather pants remain a trend in 2025
Leather pants have been one of the biggest cold-season favorites for several years in a row. In 2025, they've become especially popular thanks to their mix of comfort and bold expression.
Pants made of genuine or eco leather create a bold, sophisticated look that fits easily into both everyday and evening wardrobes.
The main trend now is straight or loose silhouettes, such as palazzo, slouchy, or wide-leg pants. They've replaced tight skinny models, offering more comfort and freedom. This style allows you to highlight your individuality while staying stylish and on trend.
How to wear leather pants this season
For a modern and balanced look, combine leather pants with oversized sweaters, shirts, and vests.
Don't be afraid to play with accessories: wide-brimmed hats, chunky boots, and bold jewelry will add personality and a polished finish to the outfit.
Leather pants also pair perfectly with outerwear in an oversized style, for example, puffer jackets, long coats, or leather jackets.
