Women love bomber jackets, full stop. All you need to do is look at what women on the streets of the world's biggest cities are wearing to recognize this fact. But unlike males, they don't necessarily opt for the authentic types and styles of bomber jacket that made this item such a hit in the first place. Instead women identify the fashion element in the jackets that they choose.

But why should the type of bomber jacket women like be any different to those that men like? If you were to ask a man or even a woman, they probably wouldn't be able to pinpoint the reason. But it is probably something to do with identity.

The original jackets of this type were made for bomber air force and marine pilots and they were totally practical.

Essentially they were intended to keep the airmen warm and dry when they flew up into the rare atmosphere to do their dreaded killing jobs during World War I and World War II. The jackets were made of leather and they had collars, tight elasticized cuffs and zipped fronts. They were intended to keep the air and moisture out. There were of course a variety of designs, and so some had sheepskin collars and some were lined with sheepskin as well.

The original jackets designed during World War I were longer than those designed later on. So it is clear that there is no one type of jacket that demands the title "bomber jacket". But the name still clings close to the bomber pilots of those wars - specifically the pilots who fought for the UK and the USA.

While the original designs were clearly intended for men to wear, it didn't take very long for women to recognize the potential for these jackets in a feminine world. Hyped by some very talented fashion designers, it didn't take much longer for women all over the world to be wearing adapted designs either.

Most of the jackets you will see women wearing today are pretty close to the original designs (for men), but they are cut slightly differently and look less like utilitarian clothing. Like designer jeans, designer bomber pilot jackets are quite simply cool and fashionable.
