One thing I know for sure, Isabel Marant is a designer who consistently influences trends. She brought us the ankle boot, the sneaker wedge, and when it comes to denim, she never just whips up an ordinary pair of jeans, they are always special. This season I loved seeing the paneled denim and leather pants. Paneling denim and leather is nothing new,  paneling jeans have been around for a few season. This is somehow different, and satisfies both the part of me that loves a pair of jeans and the part of me who loves leather pants.

But what if you can’t wait until August to get into a pair of paneled jeans?

I found a pair of Rag & Bone/ JEAN Grand Prix Motocross jeans, that have a similar look to them.   Superfine Leather Panel Skinny Jeans, which are more leather in front denim in back. Which probably give the comfort of denim, while maintaining the leather look (and not as expensive).  Blank Jeans has a moto inspired mix of denim and leather, all in black.
