Oversized Black Leather Bomber Jacket

The Oversized Black Leather Bomber Jacket is cut big on purpose. Dropped shoulders, a boxy body and long sleeves turn a classic black lambskin bomber into something with real volume and attitude.

It is the bomber for people who find the usual slim fit a bit too tidy.

Big Shape, Soft Leather

Oversized jackets only work when the proportions are right. Here the shoulder seam sits well below the natural shoulder line, the body falls straight rather than tapering, and the sleeves hang with plenty of room. The result looks deliberate and relaxed, never like you borrowed someone else’s jacket.

The shell is black lambskin, a leather known for being supple and light on the body. That matters in a roomy cut, because a stiff hide would stand away from you and look heavy. Lambskin drapes, so the jacket moves with you and keeps a clean line. Black ribbed knit finishes the collar, cuffs and hem, and a matte YKK zip runs down the front. The matte hardware keeps the whole piece low-key and dark, so the only thing anyone really notices is the shape. Wear it open and the ribbed hem gathers slightly, which adds a pleasing bit of bounce to the silhouette.

Oversized Black Leather Bomber Jacket Details

• Black lambskin shell: soft, smooth leather with a quiet sheen.
• Drop-shoulder cut: boxy, oversized body with long sleeves.
• Ribbed trims: knit collar, cuffs and hem that hold the shape.
• Matte YKK front zip: a smooth-running closure with a non-shiny finish.

How to Wear It and Look After It

Let the jacket be the loose layer and keep what is underneath simple. A fitted tee and straight or tapered trousers balance the volume. A chunky knit works too, since the body has room to spare. Black boots or clean trainers finish it, and a plain beanie is all the accessory it needs.

Sizing is the main decision. Order your usual size for the intended oversized drape. If you would like it a little less roomy, go one size down and check the shoulder and chest measurements on the size chart first. Because the cut already allows space, you can layer a hoodie beneath without stretching the leather.

Lambskin rewards gentle handling. Wipe off dust with a dry soft cloth, avoid hanging it on thin wire hangers that pull the dropped shoulders out of shape, and condition the leather a couple of times a year. If it gets rained on, blot it and leave it to dry away from radiators.
