Gray and Black Textured Bomber Jacket with Ribbed Cuffs and Zipper Closure

How to measure

Use the two methods below to get accurate sizing: measure the jacket flat (recommended for product listings) and measure your body so you can compare and choose the best size.

Measure the jacket (flat)

• Chest (pit-to-pit): Lay the jacket flat, zip it up and smooth the front. Measure straight across the front about 2.5 cm (1") below the armhole from seam to seam. Double this measurement to get the full chest circumference.
• Shoulder width: Measure straight across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam at the highest point.
• Sleeve length: Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff. (If your size chart uses "center back to cuff" instead, measure from the center back at the base of the collar, across the shoulder, to the cuff.)
• Back length: Measure from the center back at the base of the collar down to the bottom hem.
• Hem width: Measure across the bottom hem from side seam to side seam.
• Tip: Always measure with the jacket zipped and laid flat; do not stretch ribbed cuffs when measuring.

Measure your body

• Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms and across the shoulder blades. Keep the tape snug but not tight.
• Shoulder: Measure from the end of one shoulder (bone) to the end of the other across the back.
• Sleeve: Measure from the center back at the base of the neck, across the shoulder, down to the wrist for full sleeve length.
• Fit allowance: Allow 5–10 cm (2–4") of ease for comfortable movement and layering—more if you plan to wear thick sweaters underneath.

Materials & components

Typical materials used for this style (actual composition may vary by production—always check the sewn label):

• Outer shell: Textured gray panels commonly made from polyester or a polyester blend — durable, holds texture and color well.
• Contrast panels (black): Plain-weave polyester or polyester blend for contrast and structure.
• Lining: Smooth polyester taffeta or mesh for easy on/off and comfort.
• Insulation (if present): Lightweight polyester batting for warmth without bulk.
• Ribbed cuffs & hem: Cotton/elastane or polyester/elastane rib to provide stretch and recovery.
• Zipper & hardware: Durable metal or nylon-coil zipper; commonly fitted with reinforced tape and metal pull.

Note: If the jacket includes leather or faux-leather trims, those trims require special care—refer to the product label.

Model & fit reference

Reference used in photography (example): Model height ~6'1" (185 cm), chest ~38–39" (97–99 cm), wearing size M. The jacket shown is a classic bomber fit—hip-length with a regular body and fitted ribbed cuffs/hem. If you plan to layer bulky knits underneath, consider sizing up one size for added comfort.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

1. Read the label first: Always follow the manufacturer’s sewn care label when present—this is authoritative for the exact fabric mix.
2. Prep before washing: Close the zipper, fasten any snaps, and turn the jacket inside out to protect the textured face and hardware.
3. Machine wash: Wash cold (30°C / 86°F) on a gentle cycle with like colors and a mild detergent. Use a mesh bag if you have one to protect ribbed trims.
4. Hand wash: For delicate trims or to be extra cautious, hand wash in cool water with mild detergent; gently press out water—do not wring.
5. Avoid bleach & harsh chemicals: Bleach, strong solvents and fabric softeners can damage texture and elastane in ribbing.
6. Drying: Reshape and lay flat to dry or hang to dry out of direct sunlight. If tumble drying is allowed by the care label, use low heat and remove promptly to avoid over-drying.
7. Ironing: If needed, iron on low heat on the reverse side with a pressing cloth. Do not iron directly on textured panels or elastic ribbing.
8. Spot cleaning: Treat small stains promptly with a mild soap and water solution; test in an inconspicuous area first.
9. Storage: Hang on a good-quality hanger to maintain shoulder shape, avoid folding for long periods, and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
10. Professional care: For heavy soiling or leather/faux-leather trims, consult a professional cleaner experienced with outerwear.

Quick longevity tips: avoid dragging bags over the shoulders, brush off dirt regularly, use a lint roller as needed, and use a fabric shaver for any pilling on lining or undersides.

Style tips

• Casual everyday: White or graphic tee, slim dark jeans and clean white sneakers — the textured gray adds subtle visual interest.
• Smart casual: Black or charcoal turtleneck, tailored chinos and leather Chelsea boots for a polished, modern look.
• Layered streetwear: Lightweight hoodie or sweatshirt underneath, tapered joggers and high-top sneakers for an on-trend layered silhouette.
• Evening out: Crisp button-down, black slim jeans and leather sneakers or boots — the jacket keeps it relaxed but refined.
• Color pairings: Pairs well with indigo denim, black, olive, camel and burgundy—avoid clashing textures that compete with the jacket’s textured face.
• Accessories: A simple leather watch, neutral beanie or scarf, and aviator sunglasses complement the bomber vibe.
• Proportions: Because bombers are slightly shorter, keep bottoms more fitted (slim jeans or tailored chinos) to balance the silhouette.
