Are you looking for a new jacket? Why not buy one of the popular bomber jackets, whose design originates from the US Air Force? At TEESHOPPEN, we stock bomber jackets in a wide range of styles, suitable for all seasons. In our extensive range, you’ll find designs for men that you can wear all year round – we have jackets to suit every taste!

One of the most popular jackets at the moment is the iconic bomber jacket, as its design is simple, stylish and goes with almost anything. The jacket was developed by the US Air Force during the First World War, when pilots needed a thick, heat-insulating jacket to keep them warm in aircraft that, at that time, did not have enclosed cockpits. The jacket was named the ‘Flight Jacket’, a term still occasionally used today, though it is now best known as the ‘bomber jacket’.

The bomber jacket is now recognised throughout the global fashion industry and is therefore regarded as part of high fashion, which is why it is available in a wide variety of designs and colours, as well as in different cuts, catering to both men and women. At TEESHOPPEN, we have a wide selection of jackets for the fashion-conscious man – so have a look around our shop, where you’re sure to find a style that fits perfectly into your wardrobe.

Originally designed in green colours

The original bomber jacket was designed in army green colours and often featured orange trim. These jackets are actually still available today, with a focus on sticking to the traditional colours and lines. Nowadays, however, you can also find them in many other colour palettes, as the range has expanded considerably; this means you can now find bomber jackets in everything from red and yellow to black and white, so you’re guaranteed to find a bomber jacket in exactly the colour you’re looking for. There’s no doubt that bomber jackets are jackets with attitude, and as such they can give you a powerful look.

The fashion world has embraced the bomber jacket

There’s certainly no doubt that the international fashion scene has embraced these classic and extremely popular bomber jackets, which is why they’re now a staple of many major brands’ ranges. However, more and more designers have also begun to experiment with new interpretations of this popular jacket, which is why bomber jackets are now available in a variety of styles, but this only makes it more interesting, as the choice is wider and there’s a greater chance that you’ll find exactly the bomber jacket that appeals to you most

Among the new styles of bomber jackets are the ‘hooded bomber’, which is a winter jacket with a hood; the ‘light bomber’, which is a stylish, lightweight summer jacket; and the ‘coat bomber’, which is a classic bomber jacket but with extra length. There are also bomber jackets with leather details incorporated into the design, where, for example, the whole jacket or just the sleeves are made of leather. However, it is important to remember that all these new interpretations still remain within the framework of the familiar design, meaning that the short cut with voluminous sleeves, as well as the tapered hip section that characterises this iconic jacket, serve as the starting point for the new interpretations. The new designs, however, mean that the bomber jacket appeals to a much wider audience and suits a greater variety of styles, which is also a contributing factor to its growing success.

A jacket that goes with almost anything

Don’t let the bomber jacket’s sporty design limit you. Although the bomber jacket is a cropped style and has that ‘puffed-up’ look reminiscent of the ‘Letterman’ jacket, as seen in various American TV series – where it’s typically the slightly dim, girl-crazy sports lad who wears the jacket, usually with the school’s initials on the back – hence the name ‘Letterman’ –

The jacket has a sporty look, but can easily be worn for all sorts of other occasions. Pair it with a pair of men’s jeans, a white T-shirt and a pair of cool trainers, and you’ll instantly look cool and trendy. You could also wear a hoodie underneath, where the focus really falls on the hood as it peeks out over the jacket – wear the jacket open so that the jacket and hoodie together create a look in their own right. The bomber jacket offers plenty of opportunities for cool looks – who wouldn’t want to look like Tom Cruise in Top Gun?
