Can you help me identify the black jacket in this picture?

I've never owned a black leather jacket, but I like the way this one looks - not too bulky, not trying so desperately hard to say "I'm a bad ass."

The style is motorcycle jacket, if that helps.

Best answer: It looks like Dior Homme, although I can't find the exact model. This one is very similar.

You can get similar styles at non-Dior prices at All Saints.

The All Saints Coerce jacket is very similar, for instance.

More specifically, that style is usually called a "cafe racer" jacket. What's distinctive about the one in your pic are the epaulets and the vertical zipper. The Dior model that fire&wings linked is pretty close.

Though more refined, it reminds me of some Members Only jackets (from days of yore), which were usually fabric, but sometimes leather - see here.

I think fire&wings has it. I don't see any difference between the jackets.
