A piece of fashion history, thoughtfully preserved. This 1980s Banana Republic suede bomber hails from the brand’s original expedition era—when utility, craftsmanship, and understated adventure defined the aesthetic. Cut from rich, chocolate-brown suede with a beautifully worn-in patina, it carries the kind of character that only decades of life can create.
The silhouette blends the ease of a classic bomber with the clean finish of a straight hem, giving it a refined, quietly rugged feel. Ribbed details at the collar and cuffs add subtle structure, while the quilted lining and full-zip front make it as functional as it is iconic. Finished with tortoise buttons, side pockets, and a full nylon lining, it’s a timeless layer that elevates everything from denim to tailored trousers.
For the collector, the minimalist, the lover of heritage design—this is a rare vintage find meant to be worn, lived in, and passed on.
