Can you believe it? Can you believe that I'm still searching for an acceptable bomber jacket that can be purchased for say, 100€?
Almost all of the ones that I come across are too shiny and fit like garbage. I believe some of you must be struggling with the same issue so that is why I've made a thread instead of a post in the w2c.
Pic Related, perfect Rick bomber that I simply can't afford
>>10876576
I do believe I'd commit awful, awful things for Asap Rocky's bomber collection. This is how I want my search to end, with a bomber that fits like this.
Black, Silver Hardware, Not Shiny, short and 'boxy' fitting, almost balloon like but not going overboard. Very tight cuffs to create that effect on the sleeves.
Preferably with a placket and a pocket on the sleeves.
>>10876590
Another perfect bomber. I might even prefer this to the Rick one.
TAKAHIROMIYASHITATheSoloIst.
Beautiful, really.
>>10876595
Another nice one from Rag&Bone, though the fit isn't quite right. Perhaps thats why it's only $500 rather than over a thousand.
>>10876606
Another Asap Rocky bomber. Believe this is Dries Van Noten but not sure, impeccable
I have the same issue as you suspected!
Bought this about a year ago and love it, but I'm looking for a similar bomber except thicker.
BlackMerle makes a pretty cool bomber, but it's thin as well.
Black bombers with silver hardware get my autism going~
Thinking of buying this
what shoes or boots to wear with a green bomber?
>>10876721
>>10876708
Weekday? I've considered it but it almost definitely doesnt have that nice fit I desire
>>10876700
Yes, so many of them are so thin, like the Weekday one above. I want it to feel heavy on me.
>>10876723
Bringing in this guy again. I'm partial to a bomber and T shirt with a relatively formal looking bottom half (black skinny jeans, Derby shoes)
>>10876576
100€ budget? Lmao no wonder you can't find a good bomber. Understandably, you don't want a shiny bomber, so dont look at nylon/polyester bombers. Find one thats a cotton blend. Those are matte in the color. As for the fit, proper bombers all fit pretty much the same. Just dont get a bomber that has extra pockets on for example the chest. Bombers should just have 2 front pockets, sleeve pocket and maybe 1 or 2 internal pockets
>>10876576
Save up, instead of wasting money on trend hopping £100 trash and get the Rick bomber.
>>10876618
Yea that is Dries.
Clifton bomber. Cotton blend, its lined and pretty heavy and warm. Size up for a better fit.
>>10876894
lmfao this is hideous
bomber jackets are fucking cringe
the only ones that look good are Raf, Rick, OG Lang, Undercover
Dries is hit and miss

I wish that were true my friend.

I'd have to be beyond brain dead to to that in the next few years. When I get a decent paying job I'll happily drop 300-400€ on a nice jacket.

>>10876595
This is the perfect jacket. There is the best bomber in the world, there is nothing better.
semi-related. does anyone ever wear their double-rider jacket zipped up at all? like when it's cold? or should i go for a bomber if i wanna bit slightly more practical
thanks
Just copped this NBHD 20th anniversary bomber for 320. It's an avirex but I'm hoping I can tailor the fit if it's too big. Good buy?
>>10877026
>Not leather
You had one job
>>10876927
400 still won't get you that Rick bomber desu. The nicer ones are still in 900 € territory.

My favorite MA-1 iterations are Rick, The Soloist (both posted), Lad Musician, and KKA (pic related)
>>10878975
and the Lad Musician
I remember when I first came onto /fa/, I always wanted a Uniqlo bomber because they looked like exactly what I had been looking for. I never found one. Now I have my dream Rick jacket and I still kinda want one, does anyone have one in size small?

Found an old green bomber jacket with fur collar from japan in my grandpas closet a while back while shopping for one online
Took it the cleaners and after three days shit came back crisp as fug
God bless my old man. Saved me a few dozen bucks.

>>10878981

>>10876576
Bought this one during christmas sales in F&F (I don't know how you guys feel about stuff from there but whatever) for like £14/$20 and it fits just fine imo.

WHATS BEST BOMBER FOR SUB-100? GO!
Where can I find a thick black cotton bomber? I've been looking everywhere and its extremely difficult to find
This Uniqlo one is close enough but its not in shops in Aus at the moment
Best bomber sub 200? Cold climate friendly is nice
Anyone know where I can get a white one similar to the Our Legacy tyvek bomber?
You guys do know there are other colours than black right?

You've bought shame into this thread

I haven't worn it as I say, it's really nice quality but I don't it would be warm without a sweater as it's pretty thin

I have an ASOS bomber jacket and it's really great. Don't listen to anyone who says otherwise; they're most likely just parroting what others have said. It's the best cheap bomber jacket you can get. The amount of compliments I get on mine is ridiculous, including on this board.
I think this is the one I have:

I hope those links work. :-)
>>10885769
Sadly those two are different, i think their different material =( I wished the first link you gave out was also in black
>>10885782
You might be able to find it if you search. I didn't look around for too long.
Also, if you're worried about shininess, the jacket isn't nearly as shiny as it is in the image. That's just a consequence of the lighting. In fact, my jacket isn't shiny whatsoever.
I want this leather ma1 badly. Thoughts?
Its about $500 AU so I will have to make sure the place I buy it from has returns in case I don't like it/the fit.
>>10886766
dont like the logo desu but maybe it's the fit in that pic that's making the jacket look ugly to me

Fit is pretty bad, I agree.
Question: Does all RO's bomber have shoulder strap? What other bombers that do have strap?
>>10886766
dont get leather ma1s
they never look good. leather go moto or rider. ma-1 go nylon
>>10890122
>they never look good
Why?
They look really good on the models to me. I'll make sure I get the Alpha Industries one.
>>10885131
I would kill for something like this but I cant find it anywhere

not to promote my own shit, but im selling a ermenegildo zegna leather bomber on ebay right now. retailed for $2400 and its only at 49.99 at the moment. its a really sick jacket if you like bombers (size 52/L). Ends in like 5 hours

Yes, even as a Ye fan myself I wouldn't get caught dead wearing this.

what is this
>>10894128
I can tell you that it only will look good in photos.
Anyways pic related is the goat bomber. Vintage helmut lang in general makes the GOAT jackets
>>10891643
I tried that bomber on -- and plan on buying it this weekend.
Felt nice, for the price. My only quarrel is it had some red parts to the lining -- but that's just being nitpicky and you would only see it when it's off.
>>10894498
>tfw no $1000 to blow on a jacket
>>10894498
why vintage? there's other good helmut bombers
>>10894509
Stampd makes one that looks very similar. Still $330, though.
>>10894547
there was one with the suspenders that i liked a lot, i forgot who it was but it wasn't stampd
maybe our legacy
>>10894529
yeah there are good recent ones but the most interesting ones are the older models
heres another cool bomber (margiela contrast bomber)
>>10894561
our lord and savior knoch also makes some cool ones

eww neither

>>10894713
this looks nice. might look different IRL just because of how fast fashion is but worth a shot you can always return it
>>10894498
the straps make it look sex bondagey. and without straps it looks h&m tier
>>10876576
Best bomber fit I own is actually topman. It's got the slim fit and high arms of my Rick leathers, and it works really well in Rick fits. Check 'em out yo.

Almost all western fashion including shaving your face comes from the military
just go to a fucking military surplus you retard
literally costs 1/3rd what some poorly made "fashion" bomber would cost you, and it looks better. plus if you get one that is 1980s and back it's probably going to be made well because it wasn't made by 5 year olds in china
>>10895949
but it's going to be shiny and poofy and won't make him look like a faggy little goth twink like he wants :^((((

Thanks for your opinions, guys.
What's the consensus on zipper colors here at /fa/? I know gold isn't very liked.
>>10895649
about three weeks I think. I ordered around christmas too, took him a while to send it but after it was sent it arrived in a couple of days. He answered all my emails, shoot him another
What do you say? Couldn't find a better image, it's a small local factory in our town, the jacket looks better irl. There is no weird texture on the jacket, it is all dark grey cotton. The buttons are also same color normally. It doesn't look so stretched out.
>>10896466
Pretty unique. I'd say go for it, no-one else will have one exactly the same.
>>10896398
As far as details on bombers go, I don't really even bother with anything that doesn't have the sleeve pocket and silver hardware. But personal choices really, I feel like gold hardware looks just weird, same color as the bomber is acceptable.
Also diagonal chest pockets are cool as far as details go.
>>10895997
looks cheap
