Kids bomber jackets in cotton canvas and Piñatex
A bomber is the jacket children keep on: short enough to run in, light enough for the days that start cold and end warm, and it goes over everything from a dress to a hoodie. Ours are cut for girls and boys alike, from size 68 (about 6 months) to 176 (about 16 years). The Black Bomber Jacket with Floral Embroidery is 100% cotton canvas, in sizes 68 to 116. The Orange Bomber Jacket for Kids is cotton canvas with a cotton lining, in sizes 104 to 176, and the Multicolored Bomber Jacket is cotton, made in Portugal, in sizes 104 to 176.
Girls bomber jackets
Every bomber here works for girls. The black embroidered bomber goes over a dress for a party and over jeans for school, and it matches the floral embroidery on our little black dress and mini skirt, which makes it a good piece for matching sibling outfits. The Hooded Bomber — Off-White adds a hood; its outer fabric is 70% cotton and 30% Calotropis fibre.
The vegan leather bomber
The Piñatex Bomber looks like leather and contains none. Piñatex is a non-woven textile made from pineapple-leaf fibre, and the jacket is lined with cotton sweat fabric. It is made to order in sizes 104 to 176 and takes about four weeks after you order.
Two more zip jackets
If you want the same short, zipped shape in something else: The Knitted-Sleeve Jacket — Mint & Black has a zip front, a mandarin collar and pockets, in sizes 68 to 140, and the Double Zero Reversible Jacket is handwoven in Jaipur from strips of cotton cutting waste, cut on a zero-waste pattern and wearable on both sides, in sizes 104 to 140.
Sizes
Our sizes are heights in centimetres. Bomber jackets are worn over layers, so if your child is between two sizes, take the larger. The size and hand-me-down guide shows which size fits at which age. Every piece is vegan; GOTS-certified pieces are marked on the product page.
Frequently asked
What is a bomber jacket?
A short jacket that stops at the hip and closes at the front, usually gathered at the waist and cuffs. It was first made for pilots; for children it is a light jacket for spring and autumn that layers over a sweater or a dress.
Is a bomber jacket warm enough for winter?
Ours are transitional jackets for mild and cool days, not winter coats. For snow and frost, layer it over a knit or choose our Black Padded Coat, a heavy padded cotton coat in sizes 68 to 116.
Is the Piñatex bomber real leather?
No. Piñatex is a leather alternative made from pineapple-leaf fibre, and like everything we make, the jacket contains no animal-derived materials. It is made to order and takes about four weeks.
Are your bomber jackets for girls or boys?
Both. Every bomber jacket on this page is cut for girls and boys alike.
What sizes do your kids bomber jackets come in?
From 68 (about 6 months) to 176 (about 16 years), depending on the style. The sizes in stock are shown on each product page.
