WHY IT’S TIME TO INVEST IN A BOMBER JACKET | ESSENTIALS
Unrivalled when it comes to versatility and wearability, the humble bomber is a wardrobe must-have.
In the ever-changing world of fashion, there are the items that cash in on a trend at any given time, and then there are the classics – those timeless pieces of clothing that help elevate the wearer to a whole new aesthetic. At Bespoke, we favour the latter. From made-to-measure suits that reflect our clients’ personality and lifestyle, to our range of essentials now available online, we focus on items that you will treasure for life. And that’s exactly the case with our new line of bomber jackets: this is outerwear that you can confidently say will never go out of style. But don’t just take our word for it, look inside the wardrobe of literally any of Hollywood’s leading men from the past 50 years and you will notice a bomber or two safely stowed with pride.
Coming in three material variations – baby suede, deerskin leather with beaver collar, and soft touch wool – our line of Bespoke bombers can be purchased as a made-to-order, or from our online store in a range of set sizes. Whichever you choose, what you’ll get is a jacket that can be worn with almost anything, helping to transform a basic outfit into something much more refined.
Alongside a pair of sweatpants and sneakers, throw on a bomber over a plain T-shirt and you have a casual but effortlessly stylish look. On the other hand, paired with a shirt and some statement boots, you’ll have a ’fit ready for any event or party. After all, versatility is the bomber’s greatest strength.
To offer some inspiration to get you and the bomber better acquainted, here’s some advice on how to style your new favourite jacket.
RED CARPET READY
While the bomber does a good job of elevating a casual ensemble, it can also do the heavy lifting when it comes to dressing up. Here, footwear is key. Combined with a pair of patent leather boots and you have an outfit that radiates confidence and charisma.
TRAVEL DAY
Because the bomber is so sturdy and comfortable, it’s the ultimate travel companion. There’s no risk of unseemly creases and it won’t leave you burdened with a heavy jacket that’s awkward to carry.
SIMPLICITY IS KEY
As Mick Jagger knew all too well, the bomber is more than capable of carrying an outfit on its own. Wear it with a pair of denim jeans and a nondescript T-shirt for a look that’s as classic as it is practical.
HAT’S OFF TO YOU
There’s something so effortless about a baseball cap / bomber combination. It brings to mind heroes of classic American style like Robert Redford and, indeed, Bradley Cooper. In other words, you’re in good company.
