Hey all

Question for you lot - as you’re pretty clued up. I am scouring everywhere for a perfect black bomber. The Bogota is great but here’s the rub... I need something that’s not padded, a lightweight one I can wear in bars and not be too hot.

I like the rick Owens aesthetic but i had one and it was too padded. Anyone know of something out there?

Just looking for black with silver hardware really

I have a black Sandro bomber from about 3 years ago exactly how you describe, lightweight and no padding.

They have a similar one this year, but doesn’t have the arm pockets.

Rick has unpadded ones. Falcon Garments used to offer a suiting wool one with no fill (you might ask Charly if he's willing to do it still). Haider has some and APC makes one off and on.

Helmut Lang and Geller have made lighter ones in the past.

I think I gotta return my Iodines. Theyre so tight. Carbons feel great right off the rack but i cant imagine the Iodines stretching to anything resembling comfort...
I love my Iodine.. I washed it, hang dry and light iron.. fits perfectly.. Carbons is a great jeans too!!

Acne makes a good unpadded bomber, the Selo Light model. There should be plenty available for a good price on Grailed.
