>>8726817
thanks anon !
>>8726821
No problem, it's all yours!
I have sandro Paris bomber. really nice materials, as black as black can be and doesn't fade
All Saints bomber
>>8726815
our legacy
>>8726820
It's a thrifted Flying Cross Uniform bomber.
Acne Silas bomber. Perfect for autumn
GOAT bomber coming in.
>>8726990
Probably gonna cop that one, but my fear is that's it too puffed, and that would look like ass on a skinny bodyframe
>>8726995
Waist section is too long, boxy in the chest and the brown patch is gross.
>>8726997
It's not puffed at all. It's v slim actually. Totally opposite of that shit AI one
>>8726999
talk shit get hit bud
i live in canada, vancouver
does anyone know where i can cop a nice slim fitting black/dark navy bomber in person?
I'd try H&M but i am afraid of catching the gay from going in that store. Any other physical retail stores I will try.
price is <$200
thx
i waiting u reply
>>8727006
Cool, waiting for my paycheck then.
>>8727013
>I'd try H&M but i am afraid of catching the gay from going in that store
what
>>8727013
Zanerobe
Zara
Target
Obviously you get what you pay for. I haven't seen a decent bomber under $300 though
>>8727013
Pop into Haven in Vancouver, they still have Engineerd Garment's SS14 Aviator in navy twill, I think it's just at $200
>>8727031
i have a harrington that looks exactly like that already, looking for more a black minimalistic bomber
>>8727024
Why wouldn't you buy Alpha at that price, I can assure you it's fantastic value for money if you just want a bog-standard MA-1, far better than anything from Zara or Zanerobe. Get the original, not the slim, and size up one, even two sizes
>>8727033
Not in my fucking country.
>>8727041
cause its puffy as fuck, i wnat slim
>>8727041
The MA-1 is a classic and all but like the other guy said it's puffy as fuck. I want the classic bomber look without the ( awful ) classic puffy bomber cut.
>>8727046
Why would you want a slim MA-1, frankly it's one of the few iconic garments that work oversized, that's why I recommend sizing up one or more sizes
Just buy a boring-ass slim blouson if that's what you want, but a classic MA-1 should be puffy
>>8726787
Cop?
>>8727052
puffy ma1 looks good on stocky gents imo
also on girls and skinny guys
basically everyone
>>8727053
No, gross.
>>8727062
show me a pic and i will tell u honestly without any agenda
Any good, skinny bombers to cop?
>>8726787
I got exactly that one. In 48. Like it a lot, but am wondering how to clean it if the need arises. Just hardware the cuffs and the collar?
>>8727096
*hand wash
>>8727098
handwashing should be pretty foolproof, otherwise just follow the caretag
>>8726803
put it on grailed then ma nigga
>>8727103
you interested in it?
>>8727105
what size?
>>8727135
Tagged large, fits closer to a medium. Could fit a medium to a large depending on whether or not you want a regular or cropped fit.
>>8727144
Put it on somewhere if you want to, I'm interested.
>>8727159
Keep your eyes on grailed in the near future then, I'll likely make a listing. In the meantime I'm going to bed.
>>8727033
holy shit ths is so true
>>8727054
Stocky guy here, can confirmed. I also like how it gets slimmer around the waist. Gives you a v shape upper body look.
>>8726787
that model looks like a zombie
>>8727024
just looked up that target bomber. color is kinda gross but for 30 bucks it looks okay
>>8726944
Is it available anywhere, or the are long abandoned that style?
>>8727426
they abandoned*
id on this bomber pls
>>8727454

I don't know, sorry. Just found the post of the guy in the pic on reddit and that's all the info I got from his comments.
http://www.reddit.com/r/malefashion/comments/1vvybq/wiwt_thrift_2xist_diy_diy_jbrand_ro/
>>8727515
Thanks anyway, I tried reverse search too, but I cannot navigate reddit.
I need a waterproof (important) bomber jacket/MA-1 with a slim fit. I can't have it be puffy or baggy as fuck, it should be rather lightweight and breathable since I intend to use it under rain and warmer weather.
However I need it to be under 130 dollars.
Any ideas?
>>8727463
this one is perfect, any infro?
>>8727537
Heh, consider learning how to use reddit to send a private message if you think it's worth it.

>>8727053
dnc, I ordered it to see and ended up sending it back, fit and quality are no good. get the slim alpha industries instead
>>8727616
So does anyone know for sure how "slim" fit this is?
>>8727677
its puffy af
>>8727616
>http://www.alphaindustries.com//mens-flight-jackets/alpha-industries-valor-flight-jacket.asp
Eh, it doesn't come in black nor white, and the fit isn't exactly slim - nor does it look breathable/thin.
Thanks anyway but that's not really what I'm searching for

>>8727963
this one
>>8727971
let me guess, zara ?
try in person before buying anything from them
>>8727987
Not the guy, but I'm considering buying from Zara in the near future. Should I skip the brand entirely? I'm not suer what /fa/ thinks about the brand because I'm a newfag.
>>8727031
w2c pants
>>8727971
I have that jacket from zara, the material is shinier than you can tell from the picture, be warned
>>8727987
What are some decent brands for basic tier stuff like that?
>>8728005
its knock offs of nicer stuff, but its so bad that it looks like you got fakes
>>8728005
Their lookbooks are great. The pieces in their website look decent. Then you go to a physical store and find everything is chinese fake level cringeworthy shit. Still copped a bomber because it was decent for the price, but everything else, just lel. Mostly stay away from the shoes, pants and knitwear.
>>8728021
uniqlo is still the king
>>8726787
Not really a bomber but looking for opinions. Do I cop? It's from River Island.
>>8728005
it's buy & throw fashion, absolute shit quality ( seams especially, falling buttons etc ), don't expect most of their products to survive more than two months
that being said it's not fully " bad ", you can find interesting pieces time to time
i would say zara and shit is interesting if you are broke or you just need a quick piece to complement an existing fit
>>8727054

Got this one, its p cool
ma bomber
Considering getting an alpha industries ma1. Leaning towards the brown leather one. 42 chest, usually wear a large, the website suggests sizing up. Anyone have one?
>>8732149
damn, that's p nice. what's their returns policy? could you buy two sizes and return the worse of the pair?
>>8732149
don't size up they just say that because their main customers are fat americans order reg size for decent fit
>>8732172
Yea I'm pretty sure you can. You can checkout with PayPal so it's secure. Can't afford to front for two
Brown or black leather ma1. I've got a black took quilted double rider so thinking I should go brown but blacks sexy as fuck to
>>8732201
you will look like a retarded goon in this i tell you what
>wearing bombers
>not being a skinhead
pick one
would this classify as a bomber
>>8732149
got one. it cuts above the waist so if you're ok with that, no need to size up. all the measurements except torso length are tts.
Bros I got this one from asos, it fits pretty much like the pic. However I wanted it to be a slimmer fit, as you can see it's pretty puffy looking. Is it worth keeping and taking it to a tailor or return it and cop something with a slimmer fit??
>>8729875
w2c ?
>>8728051
That looks vile
>>8732257
looks fine m8
All I need is a black slim bomber with the iconic arm zipper. $100-200
Is that anon who copped the represent clo vengeance bomber here? I don't think they'll restock it and I would glady buy it from you. Also does anyone know where I can get a bomber with scrunched arms like pic related.
>>8732257

Anyone have the alpha industries Valor Flight Jacket?
>>8727052
I agree
Why can't I find my perfect harrington/bomber jacket?
I just want a light jacket with no hood, doesn't have leather, fairly simple design-wise, has at least one internal pocket and has easily accessible pockets (i.e. preferably zip pockets, or push button pockets, but not the ones where you slide the button through a slit).
>>8732212

what's wrong with ti?
>>8735499
embellishments are a little gaudy for my taste, swapping it out for either something more interesting or more understated. not a fan of the double zipper on the heavy cotton twill, would much prefer it on a nylon jacket.

Just copped this bomber. Paid $70
>>8737600
You got ripped off m8
>>8737992
In what way? Unless your a troll. Slim fit, and High quality. I've already compared to other bombers in the $150 range and it's definitely better.

>>8734779

>>8742876
You can always layer until switching into winter jacket. The real puffy bombers often have a removable padding so they can be used at winter.
Did i fuck up?
Sooo I'm a poorfag and one of the only stores that offers free shipping to my country is Asos so could you guys recommend me any slim bomber from there in the 40-70 bux price range?

Thanks bb :)
Thoughts on this? Tried it on yesterday and it looked and felt really nice.
I hate Obey as a brand though, shit is so fucking pretentious and garish.
Love this bomber. Anyone seen anything similar? its priced at £200
>>8727053
Good alternative to this for less than £100?
>>8742117
I tried on the silent jupit bomber in a shop in June. It so lightweight and feels really soft. Was really diggin it. unfortunatley it was too big.
>>8727024

target bomber is pretty decent and very warm. I'd recommend the olive one because the navy one has a disgusting lime green lining.
>>8747970
fugggg that looks nice
>>8733650
How does is feel? Does it feel like actual cotton or like plastic?
>>8746859
just get an Alpha Industries one from eBay

>>8746911
So how's the feel/quality shit like that? For $64 bucks I'm not expecting high quality but I wouldn't want shit either

So Bomber jackets are in this winter apparently and denim jackets out.
I bought a nice APC denim last winter. Should I look to sell it and grab a bomber?
>>8750593
if that's your line of thought, then sure
>>8750599
I've read it around and about in a few fashion blogs and mags.
Was looking for some opinions on /fa/ hence the question mark
>>8750604
i'm not sure bombers or denim will ever be 'out', but flight jackets have definitely been trending for a while. what's your budget like?
>>8750611

Flight jackets are quite ugly imo
>>8750618
>in a bomber thread
>finds bombers ugly
>>8750593
>. Should I look to sell it and grab a bomber?
...no because that retarded
>>8750621
Bombers can be sleek and welll fitting.
flight jackets are all bulky and ugly and often have those hideous wool collars
>>8750625
The term 'flight jacket' encompasses bombers.
>>8750627
But you're ignoring what I said
>>8750640
because it's not relevant, i agree with you. puffy ma-1s with bulky collars are ugly in my mind. but the term 'flight jacket' encompasses all of the bomber jackets in this thread.
>>8750643
Okay agreed. Seen anything nice then that would be worth me looking at?
>>8750654
depends on what you're looking for really. just a simple, slim ma-1 with few embellishments?
>>8750662
Preferably yes
>>8747970
Looks nice. Do they stock them in Selfreidges? I'm heading there later
>>8750665

mki is a cheaper option, go for the more simple jackets though
silent might be a good option if you can find it on sale, one of my personal favourites
>>8750672
Cheers buddy. I looked at the MKi ones and didn't like the way they fitted
>>8750673
stolen girlfriends club is another i neglected to mention. they don't have much going on at the moment but their previous seasons are nice. they're generally more of a winter jacket and as such they're a little less slim, so they might not be exactly what you're looking for.
