Every month, Street Seen takes a look at the latest fashion and street style, as showcased by the general public. If your outfit involves an item made of real leather and you happen to cross paths with our intrepid spies, you could be featured right here on the Real Leather. Stay Different. website. From London fashion to Parisian chic, if it looks good and involves leather, you’ll be sure to find it here.

How would you describe your personal style?
I would like to think my style varies. I would like to say I also have my own personal style but sometimes I take inspiration from 90s New York looks, especially from films like Paid In Full. I love the style in the film from their clothes to the cars they drive.
Please tell us about your look & what brands you’re wearing?
The leather hat I’m wearing in this is from a kilo sale in Manchester. My gilet is from Moncler and on my feet are regular white Nike Air Forces.
What is your favourite leather piece of clothing and why?
My Air Forces! You can never go wrong with a pair of white air forces, they go with every fit you could think of, that’s why they have to be my favourite leather item.
What music are you currently listening to?
Apart from my own that I plan to release soon (self promo at its finest!) I listen to my friends music a lot. JiggySoufside, MagsDBF, Renzo Starr, DZD and 88 are all talented artists that you should check out. Mainstream wise I listen to a lot of Future, Drake, The Weeknd and FKA TWIGS, but I’m always listening to various artists.
What are you passionate about?
A new passion of mine is making music. Football has also been a passion of mine since I was young and something I have done since I was a kid.
