Black leather has never looked hotter, thanks to the [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-life-fullzip-unlined-jacket) Brazil Destroyer Jacket. This piece is styled after a [letterman jacket](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nfl-x-veronica-beard) and was made exclusively for Brazil's World Cup team. This jacket has low-key styling, unlike typical Brazilian duds that have bright and loud colors. I am all for exclusivity, but I am still holding out hope that this jacket makes its way into Nike retail stores sometime in the future. **Implications** - A product like this si so incredibly stylish and different from other products, that it's hard to to conceive that it won't be available to the public when there are so many other terrible pieces of clothing readily offered.
