History Leather Pants Fashion

Leather pants have been a staple to style for centuries. Leather is one of the first materials that humans learned to use to cloth and protect themselves from the elements including the cold, and the sun. European settlers in the Americas adopted the trend of wearing leather pants from native Americans, and leather pants for men became common in society in the late 19th century. Leather chaps were popular to wear over trousers to protect horseback riders traveling long distances. Leather trousers became known as the clothing of peasants because of the rugged look and little need for washing. Since the 1950s however black leather pants have exploded onto the high fashion scene and the culture around leather pants has changed. Now, leather outfits are iconic with musicians, bondage, and a hedonistic lifestyle that rebels against the mainstream popular culture; as well as celebrity royalty and fashionistas from around the world.

Some people throughout history who have made leather pants for men popular include Elvis Presley, James Dean, and Marlon Brando. Eddie Cochran, Jim Morrison, and other rockers of the 1960s made leather prominent across the music industry and in the 1970’s women like Joan Jett and Chrissie Hynde was proving that leather pants were for women too. When the ’80s rolled around punk fashion brought leather into the mainstream and fetish, and bondage wear became popular and romanticized. This trend takes us to the 1990s when leather pants for women became glamorized and seen on the red carpet and on Hollywood’s elite. No matter what your preferred leather pants inspiration comes from, you can be sure that RebelsMarket has leather pants for men and leather pants for women that will be perfect for the statement you want to make.
