Big and Tall Leather Bomber Jacket for Men
Big and Tall Leather Bomber Jacket
The Big and Tall Leather Bomber Jacket is designed for men who need more than a standard bomber simply scaled up by one or two sizes. Built around a G-1-inspired flight-jacket silhouette, it combines 1.1 mm full-grain sheepskin leather, a soft temper, faux shearling collar, ribbed trim, and extended proportions intended to sit more naturally on broader and taller builds.
The smooth black leather keeps the jacket versatile, while silver-tone hardware and aviation-inspired details give it a clean, substantial appearance without making the design overly decorative.
Designed for Big & Tall Proportions
A genuine big-and-tall jacket should account for proportion as well as circumference.
This design provides additional room through areas such as the chest and shoulders while using longer sleeve and body proportions to better suit taller frames.
That makes it different from an intentionally oversized bomber.
An oversized jacket creates extra volume as a style choice. A big and tall leather bomber jacket is intended to preserve the shape of the jacket while accommodating a larger or taller body more naturally.
For buyers who still struggle with standard sizing, custom sizing is available.
Full-Grain Sheepskin Leather
The outer shell is made from approximately 1.1 mm full-grain sheepskin leather.
Sheepskin works particularly well for this type of bomber because its naturally soft temper allows greater flexibility through the sleeves and body while still providing enough substance for the G-1-inspired structure.
The leather is chrome tanned and finished with a smooth black surface.
Because it is genuine full-grain leather, slight differences in grain, creasing, and surface character can occur naturally between panels.
G-1 Inspired Flight Jacket Styling
The jacket takes its direction from classic G-1 flight-jacket styling.
Key elements include:
- faux shearling collar
- front zipper closure
- ribbed cuffs
- ribbed waistband
- two front flap pockets
- compact flight-jacket proportions
- clean black leather exterior
These details give the jacket a recognizable aviation character while keeping it suitable for contemporary casual wear.

Faux Shearling Collar
The collar uses faux shearling, giving the jacket the visual warmth associated with traditional flight jackets without presenting it as real fur.
The soft textured collar contrasts against the smooth black leather and adds insulation around the neck area while strengthening the G-1-inspired appearance.
A polyester lining provides a smoother interior and makes the jacket easier to layer over shirts, knitwear, or lightweight sweaters.
YKK #8 Silver Zipper
The main front closure uses a YKK #8 zipper with a silver finish.
The larger zipper gauge suits the main opening of a substantial leather jacket, while the silver hardware provides a clean contrast against the black leather.
The cuffs and waistband use cotton-polyester ribbing, helping the jacket maintain the compact shape associated with traditional bomber construction.
Storage & Everyday Function
Two front flap pockets with button closures provide exterior storage while maintaining the traditional flight-jacket look.
Inside, one additional pocket provides a more discreet place for smaller personal items.
The jacket weighs approximately 2 kg, giving it a substantial feel without relying on excessively rigid leather.
Fit, Sizing & Custom Measurements
Standard sizing is available from S to 5XL.
For a big-and-tall jacket, chest size alone is not enough. Buyers should compare:
- chest
- shoulder width
- sleeve length
- waist
- jacket length
against their own measurements or a jacket that already fits well.
Custom sizing is available for customers who require more specific proportions.
The Ebon Saint Size Guide can be used as a starting point before ordering.
Construction Details
Visible stitching is approximately 7 SPI using bonded nylon thread.
This provides a balanced stitch density for leather construction without excessively perforating the hide along seam lines.
The combination of soft sheepskin, ribbed trim, substantial zipper hardware, and structured flight styling gives the jacket enough presence to look like a true leather bomber while remaining comfortable for regular wear.
Styling & Season
The black finish makes this jacket easy to combine with:
- denim
- cargo trousers
- chinos
- T-shirts
- henley shirts
- knitwear
- boots
- casual leather shoes
It is intended as an all-season leather outerwear piece, although actual comfort depends on climate, layering, and individual tolerance for warmth.
