Description

Universal Works has been developing its Wool Fleece for many years, a fabric that has become a staple of its collections. Inspired by materials traditionally used in sportswear, this knit combines a wool-rich base with a soft and slightly felted surface.

The result offers an excellent balance of warmth and lightness, while retaining the flexibility inherent to a knitted construction. Universal Works uses this fabric in particular for its waistcoats, cardigans and jackets, designed as layering pieces for cooler days.

The Wool Fleece Zip Bomber brings this fabric into a silhouette inspired by the classic bomber. Its simple and functional construction is complemented by a jersey collar, cuffs and hem, while the two welt side pockets provide a clean and practical finish.

Easy to wear on its own over a T-shirt or shirt, it can also be used as an insulating mid-layer underneath a coat when temperatures drop.

The Cacao colour brings a warm brown tone that works particularly well with the traditional fabrics and colours of an autumn-winter wardrobe.

Fit

The Wool Fleece Zip Bomber has a Regular fit, designed to be worn either on its own or as a layering piece.

For a more fitted look, we recommend taking your usual size. If you intend to wear the jacket over several thicker layers, we recommend considering the next size up.

Why we selected it

We like the Wool Fleece Zip Bomber for its simplicity and versatility. It takes the classic bomber's design codes and combines them with an exceptionally comfortable wool fabric, providing an additional layer of warmth without the bulk of a padded jacket.

The combination of a knitted construction, a high proportion of wool and functional details typical of Universal Works makes it an especially easy piece to integrate into a workwear and heritage-inspired wardrobe.

The Cacao colour further enhances this versatility: a deep, natural brown that pairs equally well with indigo denim, moleskin trousers, chinos or olive fatigues.
