What is a bomber jacket?

Bomber jackets are easy to spot and even easier to style. This jacket stems from aviator wear, with pilots donning these flight jacket styles when heading out. Fur or shearling collars and tan materials were popular choices for many.

Although there's a few different styles to choose from, they mostly have tightly gathered elasticated waistbands and cuffs, as well as a wraparound collar. They can be worn pretty much anywhere and are ridiculously easy to dress up and down just by making a few tweaks to your outfits.

Once you've nailed how to wear a men's bomber jacket, you'll never want to take it off.

How To Wear A Bomber Jacket:

• Choosing the right fit for you is a big part of getting the style down, so make sure the measurements match your current jackets.
• Start with simple outfits and then get creative.
• Try simple white tees with jeans and your fave trainers with a bomber jacket before styling it with wacky prints.
• Bomber jackets suit most events, pick one that matches your personal style and you'll find wearing a bomber jacket easy.
• This type of jacket gives off a sporty vibe, so why not experiment with athleisure wear?

How should a bomber jacket fit?

• Bomber jackets should always rest loosely on your hip - unless you've opted for a slightly cropped style.
• The clingy cuffs shouldn't go past or above your wrists - no matter the fit.
• The cuffs should be relatively tight, so if it hangs over your hand loosely, try a smaller size.
• The final test is to have a look at the collar of the jacket, which should sit comfortably - touching your neck rather than being loose or tight around it.
