Our round up of 11 luxury designer bomber jackets for women and men to buy this spring and summer 2023 to channel a top fashion trend of the season.

bomber jackets are a top trend for the new season

Spring’s must-have jacket has been slouching over the shoulders of celebs and making its way to the masses for over a year. From pop stars like Rihanna and Dua Lipa to fashion nobility like Carine Roitfeld and Alexa Chung, the bomber jacket is having a moment.

The heritage MA-1 style, according to Lee Goldup, a buyer at Browns, is “arguably the military item that is most engrained into everyday popular culture.” Originally designed for pilots by the Air Force, it’s also become synonymous throughout the decades with Hollywood heroes, rebellious youth, and suburban dads.

10 men’s and women’s luxury bomber jackets best to love this season

1. R13

R13 always has a way of making something basic look effortlessly cool. This quilted bomber channels the classic aviator style with just enough grunge edge for that off-duty model look.

2. Sacai

As spotted on Gigi Hadid and Hillary Duff, this cargo green nylon jacket gives a relaxed yet edgy vibe to any ensemble. The dramatic, flared sleeves give it a contemporary look while traditional orange lining nods to its military roots.

3. Dries Van Noten

Why are stain-prone people like me always drawn to creamy white outerwear? Ever the optimists, we would be highly motivated to keep this bomber with a twist (love the bubble hem!) pristine.

4. Coperni

Love the silhouette but not its military stylings? Coperni deconstructs the original version with silky satin, sexy cut-outs, and a modern, cropped fit. We’d throw it over cut-off shorts when we’re feeling casual or over a little black dress for dressier occasions.

5. Mother

The Cali-cool denim brand’s wool blend bomber is a throwback to sporty varsity jackets reimagined with Western details. Throw over your favorite high-waist, wide-leg jeans for an iconic look.

BUY NOW – $425.00.

6. Diesel

This silky jacket in a bold hot pink is the spring statement jacket that any self-proclaimed maximalist needs.

BUY NOW – $410.00.

7. Khaite

One of the reasons we love outerwear is that with the right piece, you could literally layer it over anything else and still come out looking intentionally stylish. This luxe suede bomber is striking in simplicity and would make biker shorts and trainers look chic. 

BUY NOW – $2,900.00.

8. The Great

With a pattern reminiscent of an American Western bandana print, this cotton voile bomber brings a softer energy to the classic menswear jacket. We’d pair it with our favorite flowy white dress for a romantic look or a cargo-inspired jumpsuit for utilitarian vibe.

BUY NOW – $450.00.

9. Max Mara

Made from brushed wool and a cashmere-blend bomber, this wonderfully textured bomber might be the softest and coziest of the bunch. Perfect for those confusing spring temps!

 

BUY NOW – $1,166.00.

10. Saint Laurent

We’ve already made dad sneakers cool. Now, it’s dad’s chunky brown leather bomber jacket’s turn. This one, in a rich chocolate brown and a slightly cropped, but relaxed cut is for anyone channeling the cool dad look.

BUY NOW – $6,190.

11.  Off-White

We love the fresh school spirit take on this varsity bomber jacket. Complete with glass crystal embellishments and playful appliques, it’s way cooler than anything we had in high school.

 

BUY NOW – $3,275.00.
