Which parts of the US is it most likely to see regular people wear Leather-jackets (not talking Harley Davidson types or fetish circles)...

Would you say Leather jackets are more of a city-style?

A lot of people were wearing leather coats/jackets in San Francisco about 10 years ago---the reason that people don't wear them as much has absolutely nothing to do with PETA and more so with the fact that they just aren't as popular or as in style these days.

I dunno, I'm in Alabama and I own three of them.

I actually like a couple of the motorcycle ones though, like the Milwaukee Crazy Horse.
