We at the #Trending team feel as though we’ve been ignoring the brothers out there in terms of fashion, so this is for all the fellas. Bomber jackets are back on the block. These days homies are opting for jackets from Alpha Industries, which are high in quality and have a fighter pilot-type look. These jackets are rugged and have zips and some have fur lining for the hood, while others have an opulent crest on the back, which makes you look like you’re a pilot in Top Gun.

The iconic feature of these kinds of jackets is the bright orange lining on the inside.

Following trends can be a risky business, but every now and then a wave rolls by that one should jump on because it’s maximum swagger. The price tags on these are hefty, but you pay for what you get. This is an investment item that you can even pass down to your kids one day. It looks like it’s going to be a long winter, so why not beat the chill in something that looks ill? All you really need to go along with your aviation-style bomber jacket is a fighter jet.
