Shearling is only truly appealing when worn with a touch of sophistication – HACKETT LONDON bomber jacket

Do you know what a bomber jacket is, a favorite of Italian men? One type is a blouson with ribbed cuffs. Perhaps inspired by the MA-1, anything with a ribbed collar and cuffs is considered a bomber jacket. The other type is a shearling jacket. This is based on the B-3 worn by bomber crews, but short-length shearling blousons are also a type of bomber jacket. Of the two types of bombers, this season sees an unusually large harvest of shearling bombers. They have a slightly rugged yet somehow gentle feel that is their charm.


The short, neatly trimmed shearling gives it a very light and comfortable feel. It's tailored in a way that makes it easy to wear as a jacket.

This outfit combines a tough vibe with elegance—simply throwing it over a turtleneck and slacks, a clean and stylish winter combination, creates a well-balanced look. The voluminous appearance is also modern and masculine.

While shearling jackets may have a strong image of being wild and American casual, the stylish Italian gentleman's approach is to choose a modern, lightweight version and wear it like a jacket. As you can see in the photo, pairing a moderately fitted shearling blouson with a turtleneck and slacks like a jacket creates a well-balanced outfit that combines toughness with elegance. The key is to choose shearling that isn't too heavy.

What's great about this Hackett London bomber jacket is that they've adjusted the amount and thickness of the fur to make it suitable for urban wear. This means you can easily wear it as a light jacket.
