Biker, bomber or trucker: which cut suits you
4 min read · Leather Jacket Co
Biker, bomber and trucker are the three classic jacket shapes. Each one has its own look, and each one suits a different kind of day.
Here is how they compare.
Biker: sharp and structured
A biker jacket has a zip front and a stand collar. It gives a sharp outline.
See the Men's Classic Biker Jacket, which comes in S to 3XL in black, blue or red.
Bomber: soft and easy
A bomber has a ribbed collar and hem, which gives the jacket a rounded shape. It is relaxed and easy to throw on.
See the Men's Bomber Jacket, in black or olive.
How to pick
Want the sharpest look? Biker. Want the easiest? Bomber. Want something casual? Trucker.
The biker is faux leather (PU) and the trucker is polyester, with the fit listed on the page. Use the size guide before you order.
A word on sizing each cut
The bomber is a regular cut, about 26 in long in size M. The trucker has a button front with chest pockets and a turn-down collar, and the biker has a zip front with zip details. If you wear layers, go up one size. Check the men's jackets collection to see all three side by side.
