Garments & Styles
A bomber jacket is a short, waist-length jacket with a zip front and ribbed cuffs, hem, and collar, originally designed for military pilots. Its blouson shape — fitted at the waist with a slight blouse above — makes it a versatile casual layer.
The ribbed waistband and cuffs are the giveaway: they pull the jacket in at the hem and wrists so it blouses slightly above, creating the signature rounded shape. Modern bombers come in everything from nylon to satin to leather.
It's the most casual of the classic jacket shapes, sitting opposite structured options like the trench and peacoat.
