The ABLE Maha Leather Jacket is BACK!

4 Winter Date Night Outfit Ideas - ABLE Maha Leather Jacket

Outfit linked here in my date night outfit ideas post 

I’m so excited that one of my favorite wardrobe staples is finally back in stock–the ABLE Maha jacket!

I wore this jacket almost every day of my Paris trip–I love it so much, I own it in two colors. If you’ve been in the market for a leather Moto jacket, I really can’t recommend this one enough. And, even better, you can save with my discount code!

Fully priced at $385 (which in my opinion is a really good price for such a quality leather jacket!) but you can get 15% off with my code JESSKEYS–which saves you $58–knocking the price down to $327! (Also, FYI–my code is good on your entire order (with some occasional exclusions, of course) and on every order–not just for first time customers, which is SO rare and speaks to the values of the brand!)

**Note, ABLE did not sponsor this post, but I do receive a small commission when my discount code is used at no additional cost to you, so thank you! 

The ABLE Maha Leather Jacket

Why I love the Maha leather jacket

The leather this jacket is made out of is really beautiful and SO soft. But it’s also durable and can withstand some beating up. It’s that kind of leather that is naturally more water repellant and scratch resistant than say, a “buttery” raw leather. My other leather jacket from Italy I absolutely ADORE but it can stain and scratch. So it’s nice to have this piece in my wardrobe knowing I don’t have to worry so much about it! That being said, it’s still SUPER soft–it’s not stiff at all!

The weight is the perfect weight to wear year-round–I throw it around my shoulders on a cooler summer night and I layer it underneath wool coats in the winter–it’s a statement piece and a functional piece at the same time. I love that the design is the perfect balance between edgy and classic. Just enough “Moto” to put the perfect edgy twist on a feminine outfit. But doesn’t look too intense and biker-y when you wear it with say, all black. (The perfect “Juxtaposition piece” if I do say so myself!)

Sizing: I sized up to a medium because I wanted it a little roomier. If I wanted it more snug I would’ve gone with a small. I would say it runs true to size, it just depends on how you’d like it to fit! I would not, however, size down!

Also–did you hear that ABLE extended their sizing!? The jacket comes in sizes XS-3X!

Return/shipping:

ABLE has free shipping and 30 day free returns for all their items! (Excludes monogrammed or personalized items, though!) This means, if you aren’t sure about sizing and would like to order two sizes and return the one that doesn’t work, they make it easy and free!

Lifetime quality and durability guarantee:

If for some reason the quality doesn’t live up to your standards for any reason, they will repair or replace it for free!

Finally, the best part of shopping ABLE:

ABLE is a small brand with a big heart, and every purchase you make helps empower a woman and her family!

While they specialize in making classic styles that easily transition through many seasons and years to come, their core mission is to fight poverty by empowering and employing women both abroad and here in the U.S. They didn’t just start out to sell clothes and leather goods–but as a solution to help women who are trapped in a long-standing cycle of poverty. Because they know that if you give women the tools to succeed, they can lift entire communities up with them.

ABLE was founded when husband and wife team, Rachel and Barrett Ward, were living in Ethiopia.

They met women who were coming out of the sex industry, looking for employment and a better way to make ends meet for their families. The couple noticed that scarves were selling really well in local markets as souvenirs, so they got the idea to hire and train these women to make beautiful scarves of their own, and to sell them back in the US.

Fast forward a few years later, and now they’re an established lifestyle brand! They partner with ethical factories in Ethiopia, India, Mexico and Brazil to make their leather goods, accessories, and clothing, and own their own jewelry manufacturer in Nashville, where all jewelry is handmade by local women! All of their factories are audited to ensure every worker is paid a living wage, with wages published on their website.

They also work really hard to keep their prices as low and accessible for their customers, while ensuring they’re always ethically made and as sustainable as possible! So yes, you might have to pay a bit more for some ABLE pieces vs. a competitor, but you know it’s directly contributing to women and their families all over the world! ♥️
