Slim fit or regular fit—what’s right for you?

Whether you’re into sleek streetwear, vintage pilot looks, or a timeless black bomber jacket, knowing your fit changes everything. This guide breaks it down for you in plain, simple words—so you can shop smart and wear with pride.

And once you know what works for your build, browse the bomber jacket collection at Premium Leather Store or design your own custom fit.


Quick Summary
