Few pieces of clothing can claim to have the same enduring appeal as a great pair of leather pants.

Of course, there are closet staples such as classic blue jeans or an oversized blazer that every woman should have in her arsenal, but leather pants somehow feel both essential and exciting.

It’s also worth noting that, while black is still the de facto shade when it comes to leather pants, increasingly, more designers are playing with brown tones. 

Brown Leather Pants Outfits

Brown leather trousers have a softer, sleeker look than their black counterparts.

Style a pair of buttery chocolate brown trousers with a tucked in sweater, and you’ve got an instant, easy outfit that works for almost any occasion – whether it be a date night or for an easy everyday style.

1. Sweater

Leather pants offer a luxurious bottom option for cold-weather dressing, that is both stylish and functional, generally keeping you warmer than jeans or leggings.

Wide-leg leather trousers go with virtually anything. Pair it with a richly colored sweater for a streamlined fashion statement.

Look for trouser-style straight leg leather pants that have a high-waisted fit.

It is always best to go for an oversized fit for a chic everyday look. Finish off with croc ankle boots for a rocker chic vibe.

There’s something so polished about the combination of black and brown.  

The non-traditional color combo is currently having a major moment and is a chic choice for a flawless look. 

2. Coat

Reverting back to tried-and-tested tonal dressing at the brown end of the color spectrum adds a touch of sophistication that is unmatched. Keeping the look simple is key.

The focal point are the luxe material of the pants, followed by a camel coat with a matching brown leather handbag.

There’s no denying that leather pants are eye-catching, they don’t necessarily have to be worn as statement pieces. Like jeans, these bottoms have the range. 

The only tricky part, however, is the shoe: To counteract the hemline, it requires either an extremely pointy toe to go with it, or a clunkier square or round loafers.

Leave the leather jacket, and grab a bomber jacket.

The jacket which has managed to escape the trend cycle of seasons past and graduate to becoming a coveted wardrobe staple.

There’s no wrong way to wear them, but it adds a sporty look to leather trousers. 

3. Blazer

Leather pants feel less rock star and more fashion when paired with a blazer.

Whether it be an oversized or even, a leather blazer, they are a great option to ground glam leather for a tailored finish.

A blazer, blouse and heels can amp up the corporate vibes, while white sneakers give a more weekend-ready look.

Appreciation for this rebellious fabric shows no signs of waning.

Stick with luxe-looking basics like plaid blazers, oversize cashmere knits or a black coat can ensure light brown leather trousers look as posh as can be.

The blazer-leather pants combination will be part of your winter season repertoire for an easy chic look.  

4. Top

If your pant legs fit more loosely, try tucking in your top to maintain some shape.

Because leather pants are so structured, this is a great opportunity to create shape and a distinct waistline. Tuck in a top and toss on a leather belt to cinch your waist.

Like lots of ’90s trends, grunge is having something of a comeback, albeit with a more polished edge.

Rather than rock a flannel print shirt, try an oversized sweatshirt in neutral colors. As for footwear, opt for chunky platform boots to complete the casual ensemble.

Add a baseball cap and a slouchy tote for an easy Sunday errands run.

Why not wear leather pants for special occasions?

Pair a going out top with leather trousers for a fun overall style. A slouchy fit, feels casual and on-trend. 

This approach to styling leather pants is perfect for transitional seasons—including summer to fall and winter to spring—since it allows you to easily layer.

An oxford shirt may seem like a boring choice, but it adds a professional look to leather pants.

Opt for a light blue button down to create an eye-catching outfit.  

An oversized top is the perfect antidote to tailored silhouette fatigue.
