Where to buy a Resident Evil Leon Kennedy jacket, from cheap to luxe

Resident Evil Requiem has arrived in grand fashion, becoming the fastest-selling game in the series by moving more than 5 million copies in five days. And the star of the show is returning hero Leon S. Kennedy, now a greying hottie that the entire internet seems to be thirsting over. But Leon’s appeal goes further than just his smoldering gaze, bulging biceps, and timely one-liners — the man has impeccable taste in jackets, and enterprising online retailers have taken note. There are tons of replica Leon Kennedy jackets out there, in a wide range of price points, ranging from just shy of $40 to nearly two grand.

You’ll find more of Leon’s Resident Evil 4 looks, since that game’s been out so much longer. But we’re already starting to see a couple riffs on his black leather peacoat with fur trim from Requiem. Whether you’re looking for a low-cost cosplay option, or a durable and luxurious leather jacket to wear for years to come, we’ve got you covered.

A Wallet-Friendly Brown Bomber

AOWOFS Men’s Faux Leather Jacket Brown Motorcycle Bomber

For those of us with champagne taste on a beer budget, this faux-leather dupe from Amazon is a decent approximation of Leon’s iconic leather bomber from Resident Evil 4, and it’s under $40 on Amazon. Customer feedback is solid, with an average rating of 4.2 out of 5 stars with more than 1,100 reviews. Buyers say this one runs small, so choose your size accordingly. It’s also not available with Prime shipping, so expect to wait a week or two to get your hands on it. One reviewer noted the jacket “doesn’t cause itching,” so I guess that’s a plus?

A faux-leather Requiem peacoat dupe

Black Mens Leather Jacket Faux Fur Collar Classic Warm Trench Coat

For those who want to emulate the look of older, wiser Leon in Resident Evil Requiem, this vegan leather peacoat broadly nails the look, with a detachable faux-fur collar and a pair of buckled straps at each wrist. It’s currently on sale for $159, but expect those prices to fluctuate in typical Amazon fashion. There aren’t any reviews for this specific item yet — probably because Requiem hasn’t been out that long — but the seller does offer another Leon jacket of the brown Resident Evil 4 variety at a similar price point, which has a strong 4.8/5 customer rating after 100+ reviews.

A near-match Requiem look in real leather

Men’s Shearling B7 Bomber

While Leon’s RE4 look was inspired by the B3 bomber jackets of the World War II era, his Requiem outerwear takes inspiration from the B7, another aviator style. While this black-on-black number from Arcane Fox ditches the double-breasted buttons of Leon’s in-game look, the zippers give it a more modern and practical vibe. It’s made of genuine leather with a faux shearling lining, and hits at about mid-thigh for cold winter temperatures. It’s not an exact duplicate, but it’s a versatile leather jacket for under $400.

For the luxe-loving Leon fan

Classic B-3 Sheepskin Bomber Jacket

Turns out, Leon’s brown bomber jacket is actually based on a real-world product, and you don’t have to travel back in time to the 1940s to get your hands on one. Schott NYC’s Classic B-3 Sheepskin Leather Bomber Jacket is lined with warm, fuzzy shearling fleece to keep you warm and dry, no matter how many zombies you decapitate on any given day. It’s made of high-quality sheepskin leather and could easily last for decades with proper care. There’s just one caveat — it’s $1,700.
