Nordy Rack: 49% off select Frye Leather Jackets
As a man who married a gal who is basically Snow White to the greater animal community, gives diplomatic immunity to house spiders, and has developed a deeper relationship with a squirrel (Frankie) than her husband has with most people… I don’t love the idea of using animal carcasses for apparel (not sure why shoes feel different.) Especially after this past week, as I was called into action to put a maimed squirrel (thankfully not Frankie) out of its misery (shovel.)
Counterpoint:
Sometimes leather jackets just look cool. On some people. Maybe you’re one of those people. Your friendly neighborhood style blog editor and emergency squirrel euthanasia administrator is not one of those people. But Nordstrom Rack appears to have just got in a bunch (like a lot) of Frye leather and suede jackets. And they’re on sale for almost half off. That’s pretty good, as leather jackets are expensive, and Frye isn’t some no-name brand slinging cheap bonded “leather” junk on social media, eBay, or in the darkest corners of Amazon.
Let’s get to the picks…
Frye Leather Bomber Jacket – $324.97 ($645)
A perfect blend of traditional and modern. Lambskin leather. Raglan sleeves.
Frye Goat Suede “Antique” Jacket – $299.97 ($595)
Not actually an antique. Quite not. In fact, the blend of cafe-racer style + gray goat suede is pretty modern looking.
Frye Suede Shacket – $349.97 ($695)
Outerwear, but in “shacket” form. Chest pockets and slants at the waist for your hands.
Frye Nappa Lamb Leather Jacket – $324.97 ($645)
As traditional as it gets. Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy…
Frye Dark Gray Suede Bomber Jacket – $349.97 ($695)
Back to something a little more modern. Out of all of these picks, this is probably the one “I’m just not a leather jacket guy” could probably pull off the easiest.
Frye Napa Leather Moto Jacket – $324.97 ($645)
Triumph Bonneville not included.
Frye “Varsity” Suede Bomber – $324.97 ($645)
Nothing Varsity about that. No numbers on the sleeves, instead it’s got the traditional navigator/bombardier pen pocket on the upper arm.
Note: Nordstrom Rack’s free shipping kicks in at $89, so yes, outbound shipping is free on all of these. Returns will cost you a pre-paid label unless you can get them over to a physical Nordstrom or Nordstrom Rack store.
