Fortela’s spin on the classic bomber calls on premium, sustainable wool from Italy’s Manteco. Founded in 1943 and based in Prato, Manteco is a third-generation, family-run mill that has become one of Europe’s leaders in premium wool fabrics. Their know-how shines through in the texture, drape, and peerless hand feel of this cloth - refined yet durable, balancing luxury with the utmost practicality.

It finds a perfect home in Fortela’s bomber, where it’s cut to a classically stout and elegant shape and finished with tonal ribbing at the collar and cuffs and a raschel-knit hem. Button-flap pockets double down on the jacket’s utility without sacrificing its slick, minimal aesthetic. Rounded out with black horn buttons.

Elliot wears a size 48 bomber. He is 185cm (6'1") tall and weighs 74kg (163 lbs).
