Bomber in San Fran

[minisoda]

In San Fran for a couple of days and need a simple, quality lightweight (not leather) bomber jacket to wear with jeans/t-shirt. Any recommendations on a downtown retailer that would have some good options?

Golden Bear warehouse sale. Cash and carry if they still do that. Garment district.

Head over to Haight street and get yourself a Derby jacket.

Derby of San Francisco

Since its establishment in 1963, Derby of San Francisco has become an iconic and historically significant brand. Its unparalleled jacket and paisley design have a universal appeal that transcends generations, making it a beloved staple in the vibrant city of San Francisco.

I grew up in San Francisco in the 1980s and every kid in the city wore one. The brand went under in the late 90s but someone brought them back to life again a few years ago. Cool jackets.

How often do they have that sale? Once a year like Schott's?

No sure about now but they were running them at least once or twice a year during the early 2000s. They were the only brand I recognized back then, there were many others in the near by area. The sight of loaded racks of jackets was an impressive sight.
