Shearling Bomber Jacket

The Shearling Bomber Jacket is a bomber first and a shearling jacket second. It has the short body and rib-knit hem of a flight bomber, in charcoal suede with a cream wool collar.

Compact, warm and easy to wear.

Ribbed Hem, Soft Wool Collar

Aviator and pilot jackets are long on shearling and heavy on hardware. This one is lighter. The rib-knit cuffs and hem hold in your body heat, and the collar sits flat like a bomber collar rather than standing up like a pilot’s.

Charcoal suede is easier to wear than black, and it looks less stark against cream.

The collar lies flat in the bomber style rather than standing up, and the charcoal rib at the cuffs and hem draws the jacket in at the edges. It is warm, but still light enough for a long walk.

Shearling Bomber Jacket Features

• Charcoal suede: a soft, matte surface.
• Cream shearling collar: flat, bomber-style.
• Ribbed cuffs and hem: charcoal knit that grips.
• Welt pockets: two slanted openings.

Fit, Layering and Care

The jacket is slim and short, so size up for a thicker layer. Brush the suede softly and use a protector spray before the first wear. Avoid rain, and let any damp patches dry in open air. The knit hem can be steamed lightly if it loses its shape.
