Alternative to YSL bomber jacket
So I randomly stumbled upon this jacket and fell in love with it, it’s basically the non-shearling version of the acne jacket that I own.
This bad boy is 5.5k retail so getting this is out of question. I was wondering if maybe there is a vintage cut of a jacket this got inspired from that can be bought instead?
To make you understand what I really like about this jacket for possible alternatives, starting from the bottom ofc the crop, also the belted detail instead of the cuff that a lot of bomber jackets have, the asymmetric closure is neat but not necessary, but overall just love the more oversized look on the upper area with the dropped shoulders.

This is the shearling I have that I meant has a very similar cut to the ysl one

Looks like it might be a real jacket style. I found this Etsy listing that’s shockingly similar just searching “belted bomber vintage” on Google

dang good find, that actually gives me some hope
I feel like the inspo for this style might be the swedish dispatch rider jackets, given the strap and the asymetic closure

might be worth trying to get a deal on an 80s/90s gianni versace jacket. not quite the same thing but a lot of them have dropped shoulders and belted waists




The third one is insane
Thanks a lot for the inspo will keep an eye out for them
Hmm yeah I can see the resemblance, could be they got inspired by them

that jacket also lives in my head rent free
Yes that one is also on my wishlist, but half the price of the ysl one is still too much 😂😭
