Few pairings are quite as perfect as a leather jacket and cooler evenings. When temperatures start to drop, there's just something *so* exciting about pulling your favorite silhouette out of storage, along with your cozy sweaters and long sleeves. But if you're in the market for a brand-new one, you may want to consider a faux-leather jacket (aka vegan leather) instead. Not only is the alternative animal-friendly, but it looks just like the real thing—and it's usually kinder on your wallet, too.

So many brands have jumped onboard the vegan leather bandwagon in the past few years, from mass retailers to high-end designers. That means you shouldn't have a problem finding a silhouette that aligns with your unique style. (In fact, it might be hard to narrow it down to one...or two). Whether you're searching for a timeless trench coat or a classic motorcycle jacket, there's surely a faux-leather option that'll check all your boxes.

To curate a comprehensive guide of the best faux-leather jackets of the moment, we scoured our favorite websites, including Amazon, Nordstrom, and Saks Fifth Avenue. There are options for those looking for a classic silhouette that’ll last for years to come, as well as options for fashionistas looking to make a street-style statement. Keep scrolling to shop our favorite faux-leather jackets, ahead.
