Budget fast-fashion bomber in current-season proportions. Polyester shell with minimal water resistance. Best for casual seasonal wear without longevity expectations.
B+Best Budget
Zara's Basic Bomber does what fast-fashion bombers do well: it looks good on the rack and for the first two seasons, it fits current proportions, and it's cheap enough that you won't agonize over replacing it when you're done with it. The rib-knit is the weakest point โ it stretches out faster than any other jacket on this list. The polyester shell resists minor water splashes. At $50-70, buy it for a season's worth of casual wear without expectation of multi-year longevity.
Pros
- Low price means no regret when trends change
- Current proportions match what's working in styling right now
- Available in stores for immediate fit-testing
Cons
- Rib-knit stretches out within one season
- Polyester shell feels cheap against hands and inside cuffs
