Like most contemporary men’s clothing, the Bomber got its start in the military. Originally made from leather or heavy canvas and lined with fur, the jackets were built to protect airmen from the cold of the cockpit. As the bomber has made its way into the civilian dress it has kept details like the rounded neckline, zippered shoulder pocket, and ribbed trim and cuffs while doing away with the heavier insulation and shell materials. The Penfield Okenfield is the latter type of bomber. It mirrors the cut and looks of the original while skipping out on the out on the heavy materials and insulation. All of this makes the layer the perfect light option for wearing into the spring as slowly rising temperatures rule out heavier jackets but not jackets altogether.
