In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past several months, the bomber jacket is by all accounts THE trending item of the season. And in your humble style director’s opinion, we could do much worse than a comeback for a piece originally developed by the military in the ‘50s to keep high-altitude jet pilots toasty, rugged and comfy in equal measure. The only question: Which color? Our answer: This reversible number from the fine folks at Levi’s® Made & Crafted that neatly doubles your wearability options.
