    At the risk of getting burned, I think it is possible to wear too much leather. Sorry if that comes across as offensive, it isnt meant to be..... I just cant help think of head to foot denim and the stigma that that carries here in the UK. Leather and cloth mix just fine in my opinion.
    Your choice of course, wear it in good health.

    Everyone's choice is their own, but I agree with you Tim. Too much leather has an S&M appearance.

    I can sympathize.

    In the interest of eradicating my ignorance...what stigma is associated with all denim in the UK? Thanks.

    now obviously cultures vary as do their tastes but rarely seen in the UK is anyone matching denim jacket with jeans.. its just denim overload and people tend to avoid doing it.

    Nothing more than that really

    Just thought I might be missing some subtle, secret message by wearing all denim...lol...it pays to know is you are sending a 'message' especially an unintended one.

    I think the green kilt and brown jacket looks fine, whatever the material, but similar tones in the same colour would not work as well, hence denim overload.
    However no one says that about traditional suits do they? How about blue pin striped trousers with a brown pin striped jacket?
    PS I am a bit colour blind!
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!
