13 Best Women’s Spring Bomber Jackets

Jackets are essentials today, but ‘outerwear’ has gone way past the classic woolen coat. Nowadays, there are leather blazers, padded longline coats, and quilted trench coats to consider. But one style that has come back in full force is the bomber jacket. The new crop of contemporary favorites is one of our favorite accessories, no matter the time of the year or the ensemble. However, women’s spring bomber jackets are in a class of their own and are truly wardrobe essentials – our wardrobe sure has ’em! Not only are they shorter than trench coats and lighter than winter outerwear, but they’re also perfect for layering, which is the secret to any versatile and incredible outfit.

What we also like is their utilitarian vibe, which makes them so easy to style. We could wear them with women’s white sneakers, plain tees, strappy sandals, and even cargo pants, and they wouldn’t look out of place. Since the style has military roots, it, thankfully, doesn’t have a specific look. Traditional bombers are usually made from shiny fabric shells and feature rib-knit cuffs and collars. Moreover, flight jackets, typically made from leather and featuring shearling collars, are also often called bomber jackets.

However, picking the right bomber for spring could be daunting. Hence, this comprehensive list features a mix of both types, as we’ve scoured bestsellers from all kinds of categories. Whether you’re looking for Kendall Jenner-worthy racing jackets or water-resistant ones, these are the bombers you should be investing in right now.

And, it took up very little space in our suitcases when we packed it, too.

Moreover, it’s currently available in as many as five versatile colors, including the lovely army green you see below.

How To Choose The Best Women’s Spring Bomber Jackets?

Material

One of the first things we consider when looking for spring bomber jackets is the material, in which there’s a lot of variety. However, the most popular ones are cotton, nylon, and polyester. While Cotton is breathable, comfortable, and lightweight, it’s not as durable. Secondly, there’s polyester, which is water-repellent, too, besides being lightweight. Finally, the highly popular nylon is preferred due to its water resistance, lightweightness, and durability.  

Fit

Another factor just as important as the material is the overall fit of the jacket. No matter the material or the style, a bomber jacket should have a snug fit around the waist and the wrists. This is to prevent us from feeling cold or from the cold air slipping in. However, the fit shouldn’t restrict your movement or be too tight, or it’ll be too uncomfortable to wear.

Style

One of the best things about a bomber jacket is that it comes in various styles. For one, they come in various lengths, so we had both shorter and longer jackets. Next, we tried to figure out how many pockets the jacket had and their placements. The best ones have front pockets for shoving your hands in, too. Finally, look at the type of collar, with the most popular being the traditional ribbed collar.   

Color

While the color of a bomber jacket simply boils down to personal taste and preferences, brighter colors, such as green, red, and yellow, are more popular during springtime and summer.

Lining

Finally, we look at the jacket’s lining, which greatly impacts its warmth and comfort. While it might not look like it, we do need a lining in even our spring bomber jackets to stay warm on colder days. Some of the most common kinds of lining available for bomber jackets are fleece, satin, and quilted ones, which are lightweight and insulating. 

Are bomber jackets good for spring?

Yes, in fact, the bomber is considered the perfect spring jacket. You can wear it on sunny days while it still keeps blasts of chilly air out.

What is the most versatile bomber jacket for women?

Black or brown leather bomber jackets are very versatile for women, as they can be paired with everything from polos and jeans to tops and cotton pants.

Which color bomber jacket is best?

While spring means brighter colors, shades like blacky, navy, and brown are more universal and will go with any outfit.
