Pro-Tip: Women Will Like You More if You Wear a Denim Jacket (Says a Woman) - InsideHook

The jean jacket holds many a secrets. 

For one, it’s the most versatile piece of outerwear in your closet. Throw it on, and it’ll immediately upgrade any sweatshirt, turtleneck, or basic tee you own. Second, it’s a jacket you can wear all year round. Lightweight enough for those transitional fall and spring days, and perfect for unexpectedly chilly summer nights out. Plus, when the colder winter days hit, you can line that baby up with sherpa fleece, getting all the good looks of the denim jacket, with the coziness of a literal blanket. And third, every single person on this planet looks good in a jean jacket. 

Do I have the data and scientific proof to back this last one up? No, I have Instagram. As we enter pumpkin-patching, apple-picking, hay-riding season, if they’re not wearing flannels, men, women and children are all sporting jean jackets to their nearest farm and letting all their followers know. This influx of denim had me thinking, regardless of my personal feelings towards these people and their pumpkins, I had to admit they looked great, put together — just stylish. Most notably the men, who I find as a species don’t wear denim jackets nearly as often as they should, so it’s always a nice surprise when they do. 

Why does the jean jacket make everyone look so goddamn attractive? Sure it elevates a look, but at the same time, it exudes almost the opposite. There’s a ruggedness about it. The denim jacket has strong handyman, car mechanic vibes and maybe you don’t know how to change my oil, but I’d love to watch you try. Most importantly, though, it’s casual. You’re not trying too hard when you wear a jean jacket.

And the sheer effortlessness of it all begs the real question, why aren’t you wearing one right now?
