Suede and fringe retro outfits are having a moment again, and it's not just cowboy boots doing the work. Moto jackets, woven leather sandals, and flare denim all carry that same worn-in, 70s-inspired texture. Here are three easy ways to wear it right now.
Grey Moto Jacket, Striped Polo & Cowboy Boots
The tan embroidered suede boots are the standout piece here — they pull the whole thing toward Western without tipping into costume. Pair with a grey leather moto jacket, a striped polo crop, and a khaki denim mini. Great for a weekend farmers market run or a casual lunch outdoors. Keep the rest of the accessories minimal — small gold hoops and a crossbody bag are enough — so the boots stay the focal point.
Rodeo Graphic Tee & Woven Leather Sandals
This one leans more Y2K than straight Western, but the woven caramel sandals keep the retro thread going. A brown graphic baby tee and wide-leg jeans make it easy to throw on for a summer afternoon — festival grounds, a road trip stop, anywhere casual. Roll the jeans slightly at the ankle so the sandals actually show.
Brown Leather Jacket & Vintage Flare Jeans
The suede shows up in the sneakers this time, keeping things low-key next to a fitted brown leather jacket and low-rise flares. If you want the texture without going full Western, this is the version to start with. Works just as well for errands as it does for a casual dinner, and the flares balance out the jacket's boxier shoulders so the silhouette doesn't feel top-heavy.
