On Trend – The Bomber Jacket

On Trend – The Bomber Jacket

The Bomber is the only jacket you should own this season. Not only is it on trend, it’s a true classic. Style icons such as Steve McQueen, Paul Newman, Mick Jagger and Bob Dylan have all been fans.

The Bomber jacket is a grown up take on the baseball jacket, whilst keeping a casual and tactile feel.

This season it has had a bit of an overhaul, with the cut becoming slimmer and armhole being higher, resulting in a slightly smarter look. This piece will look just as good with a pair of tailored chinos, as it would with worn jeans.

The Journal has picked a few of there favourites this season, to ensure your investment becomes a wardrobe staple and not just a passing trend.
