MA-1 Bomber Jackets

The 1960s mods and skinheads would wear the bomber jacket over tucked in t-shirts, cuffed skinny denim, and other military-inspired gear such as the fishtail parka. The difference being the mods gravitating to jackets with a bit more style. The style that would never have been approved for military use but the use of distinctive colours – burgundy or orange – made them distinctly different to the jackets from earlier fashion eras.
Let’s be honest. The MA-1 bomber jacket is, by now, less a trend piece and more a bona fide wardrobe essential. Adopted on and off screen by the likes of Marlon Brando and Ryan Gosling, it’s played its own part in uniforms of countless subcultures, Long associated with skinheads from years gone by, the classic MA-1 literally re-wrote the bomber jacket rule book.
