Leather jackets anyone?

Not sure if this is the best place to ask but seems closest:

Is anyone aware of European airlines that issue or at least permit their pilots to wear leather jackets on jet equipment?
Several US carriers (notably SWA) do but I don’t recall ever seeing this in Europe. (At least one US carrier apparently does not allow it for non-American destinations.

IMHO they’d be more useful than the navy-inspired blues and could be more comfortably be worn while sitting.

Factual answers as well as opinions welcome.
