I'm not sure why everyone says a trench won't keep you warm. I've done a lot of early winter mornings in the Northeast and in storms that made the airport look like Hoth, the few minutes of walkaround was never a big deal. Don't forget, leather is useless in the rain.
The leather is rooted in a time before air conditioning systems when it got cold in flight and there was a fair chance that you wouldn't make it home. I've never dropped bombs on Dresden or gone against Zeros in the south pacific, so I don't wear the leather. Military guys have earned it, civilians are just perpetrators.
