Leather Jacket is a term that does not denote any single item or style - in fact there are several options when choosing a leather jacket, and a bomber jacket is just one style. A Men's leather bomber jacket can come in many different styles, colours and textures and the only thing that makes it the best jacket is how much you love it! Leather jackets can differ in length, in fastening, in the cut of the collar and lapels, and also the size.

The Bomber Jacket style is based on the original bomber jackets that were designed during the First World War in order to keep the cabin crew of planes warm while on missions - and the name of them obviously derives from this! They were such a great design that the actual style of them hasn't changed much in the decades following their invention. Bomber jackets tend to be waist length, and have a soft inner lining. Most classic bomber jacket styles have the lining extending to under the turndown collar, meaning that a swatch of the fabric is visible under the chin. Linings these days tend to be fleece, corduroy or flannel - all of which add to the warmth. Elasticized fastenings are also used on the sleeves and waist to ensure a tight fit - making sure not warm air escapes! These jackets are basically a no frills design meant to protect you from the extreme cold.

Many leather bomber jackets these days are made from Nappa leather. But what is Nappa leather? Nappa leather is a term used to describe animal skins that have been chrome-tanned in order to make them smooth and is known as aniline leather in its natural form. This material has many different uses and is popular for motor racer jackets, cattleman jackets, duster jackets and other such styles. A Nappa leather jacket is a great choice, and will never go out of style.

Bomber Jackets and Motorcycle Jackets are the most popular commercial leather jacket choices these days, and most other styles available seem to derive from these. You will, of course, find some crossovers, such as a bomber jacket without a lining and with exaggerated lapels for example.

It is important to remember when choosing a leather jacket that you should always check the material used to manufacture it as there is a huge variety being used to construct them nowadays and not all leathers are created equally.
