benz game These Men Can’t Get Enough Leather

In March, Brandon Mahler took a pair of thrifted leather pants and spliced them into shorts. Holding the results, Mr. Mahler, a fashion consultant in New York, had to acknowledge that he’d crossed the line of sartorial sanity.

“When are you wearing leather shorts?” Mr. Mahler said, speaking with a Hyde-like clarity about this Jekyll-esque tailoring experiment. “They don’t make sense.”

On other leather items, Mr. Mahler, 33, doesn’t hesitate. He owns three pairs of leather pants, several leather jackets and a prized Zegna leather blazer that called out to him at a secondhand store like a lustrous needle in the cotton haystack.

The video appears to have been compiled from several recordings, in which Dr. Varma is seen at a number of restaurants and cafes, chatting with a woman who remains off camera. At various points, he describes a sex party he and his wife held in a hotel and a dance party he attended in a space under a bank on Wall Street, joined by more than 200 people.

“Maybe it’s this rebel bad boy thing,” he said of his tendency to dress like an oil slick.

Mr. Mahler typifies a cohort of men — often younger, yes, but also unbothered by the material’s many clichés — that have leaned into leather.

There’s Shaboozey, the country-rap warbler who appeared on “Saturday Night Live” this month outfitted in leather from his boots to his bolo tie; Timothée Chalamet, putting a fine point on his rocker pivot by wearing a black leather Prada blazer on the “A Complete Unknown” red carpet; and the Memphis Grizzlies player Jaren Jackson Jr., who arrived at a recent game in inky leather pants and a matching leather tank top.
