The bomber jacket has long been the utilitarian corner stone of any robust wardrobe, but in the last few seasons this humble piece of outerwear has enjoyed a style renaissance like nothing else.

In fact, this is a trend that’s been gaining massive traction as far back as Spring 2016 and it’s showing no signs of simmering down. With a ton of luxe versions available today from the likes of Gucci, Vetements, Haider Ackermann and Balenciaga, there really is a bomber jacket out there for everyone.

But, sometimes there’s limitless possibility in simplicity and nobody quite honors the bomber jacket like Alpha Industries. Thanks to the likes of Kanye West, who increased Alpha Industries' sales by 30%, it's become a fave of any discerning street style star too.

We’ve rounded up the 10 best pieces available from the original pioneer of rugged military outerwear so you can take on one of the most timeless trends out there.
