Vintage Sears Black Suede Bomber — Late 80s / Early 90s Icon
This is one of those jackets that feels straight out of a grainy VHS tape from 1989 — the kind where someone’s leaning against a brick wall, Walkman on, streetlights bouncing off suede.
Sears’ vintage line didn’t play around back then. Their leather and suede pieces were shockingly well-made, built for real life — bike rides, basement shows, late-night hangs — and somehow still look better 30 years later than anything "brand new" today.
Why vintage hunters love this piece:
- Size: xxL
-
Rich faded-black suede that’s developed that perfect washed-out patina
-
Classic bomber ribbing at the collar, cuffs, and hem — gives that timeless silhouette
-
Oversized 80s/90s cut: relaxed shoulders, roomy sleeves, a slouch that feels effortless
-
Metal zipper (not the cheap modern kind)
-
Deep pockets — because vintage actually cared about utility
-
