Women's Bomber Jackets
The Aviator’s Silhouette: Softened & Structured
The women’s bomber jacket (historically the MA-1 or G-1) was originally built for high-altitude survival. Zellberry retains the thermal engineering of the original but completely redrafts the pattern for the female frame. We eliminated the “boxy” shoulders of men’s surplus gear and introduced a tailored drop-shoulder. This creates a jacket that offers the signature “blouson” volume in the body but cinches tightly at the waist to define your shape.

The Bomber is defined by its elasticated ribbed cuffs and waist. If you prefer a jacket with open cuffs and zippers, switch to our Women’s Biker Jackets. For extreme winter conditions requiring fur lining, upgrade to our Shearling & Fur Coats. To see every hide we offer, return to the Women’s Leather Jackets hub.
Engineering the Fit: Crop vs. Drape
Volume management is key. We engineer two distinct profiles to match your style intent.
1. The High-Definition Fit (Cropped Bomber Jacket)
The cropped bomber jacket ends precisely at the natural waistline. We utilize a high-tension ribbed waistband that sits flush against the body. This seals out cold drafts and pairs flawlessly with high-rise denim, creating a leg-lengthening effect without sacrificing warmth.
2. The Relaxed Standard (Oversized Bomber Jacket)
For the “off-duty model” aesthetic, we engineer the oversized bomber jacket. Unlike cheap brands that simply size up a standard pattern, we adjust the sleeve pitch and back panel. This ensures the jacket drapes elegantly over the shoulders rather than bunching up under the arms.
Material Profiles: Beyond Nylon
While others use synthetic nylon, we use organic hides for superior breathability and longevity.
- The Executive (Leather Bomber Jacket Womens): Crafted from premium Nappa Lambskin. It offers the wind-blocking capability of a heavy coat but with the drape of a cardigan. It breaks in immediately.
- The Textural Layer (Suede Bomber Jacket): We use split Goat Suede for a matte, velvet-like finish. It absorbs light and adds depth to any outfit, making it the perfect transition piece for autumn.
- The Stealth Option (Black Bomber Jacket Womens): The ultimate travel companion. We use deep-dye techniques to ensure the black remains jet-black, resisting the fading often seen in lesser leathers.
