The 'Skyline' reversible bomber jacket is available in a classy black color as well as brown, rosin and dark blue. All jackets in this range are capable of handling temperatures as low as -10 degrees C thanks to the use of [Thermore](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/down-alternative-comforters) Ecodown filling, which happens to be featherless and not a byproduct of animal cruelty. What's more, these jackets are treated with a cire finish that helps aid its water-resistant credentials. Effective in keeping out the cold, pleasing to the eye and mindful of the environment, Frank and Oak's 'Skyline' reversible bomber jacket ticks all the boxes.
