About Golden Bear

Golden Bear has stepped it up a notch since 1922, when their signature leather jackets were only worn by hard-working longshoremen on the waterfront of San Francisco. That same durability and quality stayed with the Golden Bear name as they designed their famed series of leather bomber jackets for WWII pilots taking to the skies in Flying Fortresses.

Golden Bear name as they designed their famed series of leather bomber jackets for WWII pilots taking to the skies in Flying Fortresses. Golden Bear’s popularity then soared into the ‘50s, when varsity jackets became all the rage among high school and college students. And the momentum continued when Golden Bear’s proximity to San Francisco put them at the center of the ‘60s counter-culture movement, and the revival of the original leather dockworker jacket became a fashion trend embraced by famous beat poets and rock stars. Today,
Golden Bear is still a prestigious jacket brand known for its exceptional tailoring and luxurious leathers, suedes and wools.

By Mel in the Mountains
from Western North Carolina on 10/31/2009 Pros:
Attractive Design, Lightweight, Versatile
Cons:
Underarm area too deep
Describe Yourself:
Casual Dresser
Sizing:

Sleeve Length:
Feels true to length
Bottom Line:

Comments:
I ordered this for my husband. I thought it looked a bit large, espescially in the area where the side seams join the sleeve. I'm not sure if exchanging it for a medium would work. He has a 42" chest so should wear a large. But he's happy with his choice, the leather and construction are very high quality. I believe this was advertised as a 3 season jacket which is absolutely true, he'll need a sweater or fleece vest if he wants to wear this on very cool fall nights.

The leather is top quality, buttery soft. This jacket is very boxy and unattractive. Not figure flattering at all, which is why I returned it. Great color.
Golden Bear jackets in general are superior and I own 2.
