/fa/ - Fashion

actually I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna get this in a smaller size, so I guess the main question would be: any other good simple bombers in the same price range? thank y'all in advance

no one?

Army surplus brand ma-1s are going to be puffy as fuck.

They were big in the 80s. If you watch some movies from the era, you will notice some of them and how puffy they are. They were usually worn by big guys/footbal player types. An exception occurs in The Professional (1994). In that film, a 12 year old girl named MAthilda wears one.

yeah this one promised to be slim, but it's ridiculously big. I don't mind the puffiness of the fabric; in fact, I like it. however, I can't deal with the cut being so baggy. the arms in particular are bad. the body is okay.

no one has recommendations for something between uniqlo and rick range?

>>6865316
honestly, Id just stay away from them and look at other styles

Cop or not? anyone know of any other good bombers in this price range ($680)?

>>6865205
get one from uniqlo it's slim and v cheap

>>6865316

>>6865328

well I'm looking for bombers as well. doesn't have to be an ma-1 specifically. seemed like a trend every big name de$igner jumped on, but there isn't much to be found in the mid range.

>>6865374

I actually had and returned that one because it's so shit. fabric is really bad. known as the "trashbag bomber"

>>6865396

...for a reason**

>>6865396
was that the old or the new one? (lined or unlined?)

atm i'm actually rocking the american apparel bomber with press studs, it's alright

>>6865378
Thanks for the suggestions, having trouble finding ones that are readily available though.

>>6865382
Thanks for the help but I'm not going to buy an ugly af jacket just because it's Rick

>>6865413

the new one.

>>6865396
>uniqlo bomber
i dont understand how one can get a star but the other in red, maybe its tinfoil

u wot m8? I really don't understand what you're trying to say. also what's the bomber on the left? is that the uniqlo one just in different light?

H&M has a decent one

>>6865563
w2c shoes from pic on the right?

>>6865599
talking about sufu 's rating system
left is 70+, right is tinfoil with -7
theyre both uniqlo just different colors...

>>6865205
hey OP, I was looking at the reissued or the original Alpha ma-1 and couldn't see the difference...would you mind posting another pic from the front?

>>6865636
but they are totally different fits
plus lighting and image quality and pose and context make a difference

>>6865636
I will never understand sufu's rating
There was a fit that had +60 and it was literally a dude paying $900 to look homeless

>>6865646

the difference is it's supposed to be slimmer. tell me if you want mine in medium, gunmetal color. I'd rather just get $$ now and mail it to someone rather than returning.

btw I'm 5'11" 150lbs. you can see the main problem is the shoulders are big and the sleeves a little too long as well.

>>6865719
out of interest what jeans are those?

>>6865656
but if the quality of the uniqlo bomber's shitiness is always brought up on /fa/ - but is it really that bad?

>>6865731

uniqlo slim jeans that I tapered. fit pretty much the same as my acne max cashs now.

I honestly don't think they look quite as twiggy in irl as they do in the pic. gf took that very close at a high angle w a cell phone. makes the jacket look even goofier too :(

>>6865747
I thought it was worth £30
try for yourself

>>6865747

yeah it's pretty bad. like I said I had it and returned it. this alpha industries feels literally 10x in terms of quality (as if it's something quantifiable lol), but the cut is just so bad.

>>6865776
is it in stores only? can't find it online

>>6865787
might be sold out online

>>6865787

it's under jackets. "men military short blouson"

>>6865785
is that the qlo one?
looks really good imo

>>6865798
yeah found it now, it's just not on the uk site

>>6865801

yeah it is. and naw it isn't. fabric is extremely cheap and thin feeling, hence "trash bag."

if there was only something slightly better without making the jump to rafsimonsrickowens priced stuff.

>>6865818
it looks really great on you dude

>>6865827

th-thanks.

bombers are supposed to be puffy in the arms fucking idiot

>>6865719
thanks a lot.
I'll probably get a small or XS not the reissued though. Seems like alpha is only good for the traditional ma-1, appreciate it though

heres mine alpha fits guud

>>6865622
i have something like this from last season

>>6865942

they can be. they don't have to be. see the rick ma-1 posted above. OP obviously doesn't like the puffiness.

>>6865981

what do you mean yours? it's a stock photo. probably pinned the sleeves in back. also post a real fit pic w height/weight plz

>>6865785
hiow do i not make my uniqlo bomber make me look so wide?

>>6865369
Where is this from? Reverse search isn't helping.

Also, APC has bombers for slightly less than that, but they have pointed collars (which is something I like, but each prefers their own).

>>6866128

size down? idk man. honestly sleeves on mine were pretty baggy. it might just be hard to see in that pic.

jesus I just want a plain slim cut ma-1 or bomber in the $75-$300 range why is this so hard.

>>6866191
acne think it's around £500

>>6866191
base on the model's face it's from acne.

>>6866191
It's the black ACNE bomber

>>6866255
>>6866253
>>6866251

so can anyone confirm if it's acne?

i bought my bomber in j crew... but it's around $296. I got it for $260 in sale.

>>6866286
obviously acne is one of /fa/ top brands. I'm guilty of checking out their website everyday.

>>6866348

that would probably be pretty much what I'm looking for quality-wise, but I hate the contrasting bits. gives it a preppier varisty type vibe and I want the military vibe.

>>6866483

or just the plain black minimalist vibe more actually. whatever

What about the asos bomber? any good?

>>6865378

>>6866610

dude... thank you so much, and I mean that honestly. this is in the price range, slim, simple, and black. you're the man, anon.

>>6865785
too wide for your shoulders
looks too boxy for you

>>6867132

yeah thanks I already returned it like I said.

>>6866610
looks great

>>6867091
no prob dude... i was considering that bomber but I found out its for layering only. I need something versatile. so I stick with the j crew one.
