• Closure: Front zip
• Color: Black
• Care: Wipe clean, condition twice a year, hang on a shaped hanger

How to dress a bomber up

Three rules, in order of importance.

First, everything underneath must be smart. A leather bomber over a t-shirt is casual regardless of the jacket; over a fine merino crew neck or a plain shirt it is not. The layer under the jacket does more work than the jacket does.

Second, trousers rather than jeans. Dark wool or cotton trousers with a clean line move the whole outfit up several registers. Denim anchors it firmly in casual.

Third, proper shoes. Leather boots or clean leather shoes, never trainers. This is the one people skip and it is the one that matters most.

Why the bomber works for this and a biker jacket does not

A biker jacket has hardware, lapels and a strong cultural association — it will always read as a statement.

A bomber has none of that. Clean lines, no visible hardware beyond a zip, and no association stronger than "jacket". That neutrality is exactly what lets it be dressed up, and it is why the bomber is the leather jacket that works in the widest range of settings.

Fit, care and honest notes

Regular fit with room for a shirt or a fine knit at your usual size — which is the fit you want for smart wear. Rib hem at the waist. Size down for closer over a tee.

Care: wipe with a soft dry cloth, condition once or twice a year, and hang on a shaped hanger so the shoulders keep their line.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a leather bomber be worn somewhere smart?

Yes, if everything else is smart — a fine knit or shirt underneath, trousers rather than jeans, and proper shoes.

Which of those matters most?

Footwear. Trainers undo the whole outfit faster than anything else.

Why not a biker jacket?

Hardware, lapels and a strong association mean a biker jacket always reads as a statement. A bomber is neutral.

Is the leather real?

Yes, genuine leather with ribbed knit at the collar, cuffs and hem.

How should it fit for smart wear?

Room for a shirt or fine knit, not more. A loose jacket reads casual whatever else you do.

How do I care for it?

Wipe with a soft dry cloth, condition once or twice a year, and hang on a shaped hanger.

Do you offer custom sizing?

Yes — XS to 5XL plus Custom to your own measurements.
