Zara’s viral bomber jacket has sold out – but these dupes are just as good

It’s officially the season of the bomber jacket. If Kendall Jenner’s go-to Loewe puffer style is slightly out of budget (it will set you back a casual £5,260, after all), high-street hero Zara has come up with the next best thing.

Whether it’s a party-season top, satin slip or that shearling aviator jacket, the affordable label is no stranger to a viral trend. Winning over fashion editors and TikTok users alike, Zara’s wool-blend, oversized bomber jacket is the latest item that’s become near-impossible to get your hands on (trust us, we had it in our basket for less than a minute before it sold out.)

Characterised by its textured wool finish, versatile round neck and elasticated hem, there are two front patch pockets that detail the front. Reminiscent of The Frankie Shop and The Row’s oversized silhouettes, the versatile, inflated style can be thrown over everything from jeans and T-shirts to mini dresses and midi skirts.

Coming in a range of colourways – from forest green (£49.99, Zara.com) and grey to minimalist black (£109, Zara.com) and beige – the Zara bomber is finished with a snap-button fastening on the front.

While we’re manifesting that the wool jacket will come back in stock soon, if you missed out the first time around, we’ve rounded up the best dupes for the Zara bomber jacket below, from Asos to Weekday.

A stellar alternative to the beige Zara bomber jacket, Asos design’s brushed jacket comes in a stone finish. Complete with a laid-back baseball collar, zip fastening and extra zip pocket detailing on one sleeve, ribbed trims give the piece some structure. We’d suggest sizing up for an extra-oversized fit.

A smart take on Nineties-inspired bombers, Filippa K’s wool-blend jacket is cut into an oversized fit with a boxy shape, thanks to the collared neckline and dropped shoulder. Detailed with welt pockets and cuffing on the sleeves and hem, we’d size up for an even more inflated fit.
