Would definitely buy this again! by A Customer from Indianapolis IN USA
Pros: Style, fit, durability Cons: Size runs small Review: This is a terrific jacket. It's very stylish (my son has gotten several compliments) and it fits well. It's easy to clean and is durable enough for a 5-year-old boy to wear it every day and still look new. My son loves it and won't wear any other coat. This jacket does run small, so order a couple of sizes larger than what you normally would order to ensure a good fit that lasts awhile.

Sizes run small by Stacy from Fayetteville GA USA
Pros: authentic, great patches Cons: too small, sizes run small. nowhere to go after 14/16 Review: My son, 8 years old, loved the bomber jacket. Look was authentic, having the cool patches was great. The only downside is that the sizing runs small. My son is tall for his age, therefore longer arms, but we purchased the 14/16 thinking we would still have some room to grow. He is 8 years old, and normally takes a size 12/14 in clothes (needing the length). It just fits him. Would be better to have more arm length. He would feel more comfortable. Therefore, he doesn't want to wear it too much, because he doesn't feel comfortable in it, but doesn't want me to return it, because its such a cool jacket. So, I guess we get pleasure looking at it hanging in his closet!

Top Gun! by BobberBike from Fuquay Varina NC USA
Pros: Stylish, patriotic, affordable Cons: A removable hood would be nice! Review: My son gets compliments everywhere we go. Everybody loves his bomber jacket!
Friday, January 29, 2010
would buy again by A Customer from Newtown Square (Please select) USA
Pros: authentic looking style, affordable and quick delivery. Cons: looks like plastic, not that warm. Review: It came really quickly and the price was great. My husband and I thought it looked a little cheap - ie, like the plastic that it is - not like leather that you want. However, our grandson LOVED it! He was thrilled and has been wearing it proudly ever since Christmas. Sizewize - the suggestions that you buy a bigger size are correct. He is 10 years old and wears size 10 in most clothes. The 14/16 fits nicely, on the larger side but, of course, you don't want it to be on the small side. He could possibly get another year out of it.

Size runs on the small side. by Dawn from Naperville IL USA
Pros: Looks nice and always gets compliments. Cons: Runs small for size Review: I was hoping that the jacket would fit my son (six years old) a little on the loose side so he could wear it for at least one year. But, the jacket runs on the small side, and I don't think it will fit him in the Spring. I would expect a size 7 youth to fix an average sized boy age 6. My son loves the jacket and wears it almost everyday.

by Fred from Elk Grove Vlg IL USA
Pros: great appearance and realistic looking Cons: To light weight for really cold weather Review: My 5yr. old grandson loved the jacket. He wears it inside the house too. Looks great. Like other reviews I read order one size larger.Good thing I did because it fits just right and he should be able to get a couple of yrs out of it. Although it looks like a winter jacket its a little on the light weight side for midwest winters. OK for spring and fall.

My son wears this jacket every day by Julie from Wheaton MD USA
Pros: Good quality Cons: Not for extreme cold Review: Jacket definitely looks the part, fits well (on a small-framed 9 year old) and is well-made. Nice details in the zipper pull, patches, etc. It is not a heavyweight jacket, so we compensate by using a sweatshirt/hoodie underneath on very cold days.

I would buy this product again. by A Customer from Alexandria LA USA
Review: This jacket was a gift for my son for Christmas. He was very excited when he opened this gift. He loves the jacket, and wears it every where. The price is very reasonable as well for this item. I am really pleased with my purchase. Thank you.

Review: I've purchased this same jacket three times for my grandsons as they outgrow it. They love it. The boys love the airplane zipper and the patches on it.

My 7-year old loves this jacket! by Deborah from Woodland Park CO USA
Pros: Patches, overall cool look, authentic-looking Cons: Thin material and thin lining, about as warm as a sweatshirt, runs small. Review: My son the WWI and WWII flying ace loves his new bomber jacket. We live in the mountains, and it is a lightweight, instead-of-a-sweatshirt weight. Not especially warm! So we just layer underneath. The map lining is really cool, and the patches are the big draw. The outer material is very thin vinyl (again, not so warm), but the fleece collar helps a lot. Don't buy this to keep your kid warm; buy it to feed his imagination. And when you do, buy a size larger at least--my son wears a size 7, and we bought a 10-12. It's a bit big, but he can wear it through the next growth spurt!

A big hit! by Jeanne from Jacksonville FL USA
Pros: Great looking jacket Cons: This jacket is suitable for a winter jacket in warm places like N. Florida. Review: The jacket is well made and beautiful. My six year old grandson was very pleased. I followed the advice on size and purchased a 10-12, The fit is perfect. This child wears size 7 jeans and 7 in a shirt. While somewhat light weight, with the addition of a hoodie or sweater would do for some northern areas.

What a fun jacket! by Carolyn from Littleton CO USA
Pros: A great looking jacket Cons: n/a Review: My son loves the bomber jacket! He had seriously outgrown his previous bomber jacket, and I found this one simply by doing a web search. No problems whatsoever with mypilotstore.com; they were quick to ship. The jacket is very well made. And not just "stylish", but practical too - my son is quite warm in it. Heed the notice that they tend to run small. My son is a size 7/8 and I ordered a size 10/12... it fit's pretty good with just a smidgen of room to grow into.

This was the find of the year! by Christy from McDonough GA USA
Pros: the collar is very soft, the zipper pull is a plane! Cons: have not found any cons to this jacket. Review: My 9yr old son loves this coat SO much. I was very happy when it arrived. It looks even better in person. I spent about $200.00 more on the same type of jacket for my older son a few years ago. I like this one better, and my son is proud of his coat!

Worth every penny by Heather from Potsdam NY USA
Pros: look, quality, price Review: This is a wonderful little coat. As stated in other reviews, you must order a size larger for the perfect fit. My son is a 5 year old and wears 4/5. I bought a size 7 and it is just right. Great patches, lining etc. Very nice product.

My child LOVES his jacket. by Cindy from Redondo Beach CA USA
Pros: Warm, comfortable, durable. Was shipped quickly. Cons: Not sure how it will wash, but am optimistic. Review: The jacket met expectations. It is warm and comfortable to wear. It is durable, and works great for my child to wear on bike rides and skateboard rides. He fell, and it protected his skin from abrasion. It was shipped quickly and made a nice Christmas gift.

Definetly a wonderful surprise. by Sandra from Reno NV USA
Pros: The design and fit was excellent Cons: The jacket ran small so wasn't sure what size to purchase Review: My Grandson loved it and wore it all day Christmas. Parents were thrilled as their oldest son had a jacket like it when he was five and loved it. The reviews I read on the product helped me in choosing the right size.

Yes, we would purchase these jackets again! by Elizabeth from Dell Rapids SD USA
Review: This is the 2nd year my mother has purchased the bomber jackets for my 2 boys. They are neat. The boys get a lot of compliments on them & love wearing them. They do run a little small though, so keep that in mind when ordering them. Ours were ordered a size bigger than the boys normally wear.

The most wonderful gift! by Karen from Prescott,AZ
Pros: Durable. Fits well if one size larger than they normally wear. Cons: none Review: We bought this for our four year old grandson and I don't believe he has taken it off. He is sure that is the official "G.I.Joe" jacket. I did add some F-14 Tomcat patches and it is cute. This is the second one I have bought. My son is 13 and he had one also. Now he is a pilot in training for 2 years. See.....it could be an inspiration for out fuute pilots.

Perfect! by Rosemarie from Elmont NY USA

I DID buy this product again! by DONNA from Lake Saint Louis MO USA
Review: The first jacket I ordered (sz.4/5) would have been too small for a four yr. old. so I saved it and ordered a sz. 6/7 for him. He won't take it off! He is so thrilled. If I could change anything I would have the option of a velcro name tag. I shopped around for this jacket and found the price here to be the best; great service and a jacket that really scored for my grandson!!!

"Go for a larger size than what is normally worn." by A Customer from Billings MT USA
Pros: The design. Cons: Buy a size or two larger. Review: My grandson loves it. He grew out of one we had purchased at Sears years ago for the older grandson who then passed it down to him. This one has more patches on it, and he loves it. I am glad that I bought a size 7 even though he only wears a size 5. It seems small and just fits him now--I'm hoping it will still fit through the fall and spring. So, I feel that I paid a bit much for one season of wear.

by A Customer from Bowie MD USA
Pros: Cute and fun, best price we could find. Cons: Runs small: My son wears sz. 10 winter coat & needed 14/16 pilot Review: We just love the jacket and it was definately the best price that we were able to find. We were gratefull for the other reviews that warned us to buy a larger size. My son wears a shirt size 8 and a winter coat size 10. I bought the pilot jacket in a 14/16 and it fits well, with just a little room to grow. The coat is a faux leather and not real warm,sort of an "in between" coat, but it looks adorable and my son thinks it's great/

Good value for the money by Army Mom from Clinton Township MI USA
Pros: The price was right!, Delivery was quick. Cons: Fake leather looks fake Review: I read previous reviews and was glad that I orded a size bigger than needed. It fits great, with a little exrta room for growth. My son absolutly loved this jacket. It was his favorite Christmas gift. Even over his Rip Stick. He wears it proudly every day. I think the fake leather look is a little cheap, but after seeing my 9 year old's face when he put it on, made that fade in comparison.

grandsons love the jackets by lloyd from saginaw TX USA
Pros: good quality and good price Cons: not as heavyweight as some other jackets of this type Review: Twin grandsons out grew similar jackets I bought for them at the Lockheed Aircraft company store. They were heavier weight, but cost $20 more even at employee price - As with many kids items they outgrew them long before they were due to wear out so a lighter construction (and lower price) like this seems just right.
Friday, January 16, 2009
by SHARON from IOWA PARK TX USA
Cons: RUNS SMALL NOT FOR STAYING WARM Review: MY GRANDSON LOVED IT HE IS FIVE YEARS OLD...I PURCHASED A SIZE 7 AND IT JUST DID FIT SO IT DOES RUN SMALL. NOT A GREAT JACKET IF YOU NEED WARMTH, BUT IF NOT ITS AS CUTE AS CAN BE. WOULDN'T MIND JUST A LITTLE MORE LINING. AND MAYBE MORE LIKE REAL LEATHER.

Happy with Jacket by Kate from Lemont IL USA
Pros: Authentic looking Cons: Sizing Review: This is the second time I have bought this jacket for my son. He grew out of the first one this year. My only complaint is that while the size 8 was small so I ordered a 14/16 and even that size is a bit snug.

Fantastic quality...buy this jacket! by Jennifer from Sebastopol CA USA
Pros: Well made and very detailed. Cons: You may want to buy one size larger than your child's size. Review: I looked at this jacket on other websites and found they were much more expensive. This jacket is a great value. It is very well made and my son loves it. It arrived very quickly. The only thing I would suggest, is to buy the jacket one size bigger than your child's clothing size. Bomber jackets are tight at the waist and cuffs and I felt he would need the extra room. This also allows them to wear a thicker shirt underneath without feeling restricted. I am glad I ordered the larger size. My son is an 8 and I ordered the 10. He will be able to wear it for a good while. I am thrilled with my purchase!

A great jacket for the future pilot by Eric from Emporia KS USA
Pros: The overall look of the jacket and patches are great Cons: Thin and fragile Review: This jacket has a great authentic look with the patches, collar, and the lining of a map on the inside. The synethic leather gives it a nice overall look. The down side to this jacket is it seems delicate and thin. This is something great to wear on a mild winter afternoon or a nice spring day.

Looks adorable on my grandchildren. by Patricia from NJ, USA
Pros: attractive and well-made Cons: not heavy (warm)enough Review: I had read previous reviews, so I knew these jackets were not as warm and heavy as I had hoped. But I did purchase them, and they are what I expected. They are well-made and look adorable on my grandchildren. (A boy and a GIRL.) I would have liked a warmer jacket, but they'll just have to use them in spring and fall rather than winter.

SIZE IS IMPORTANT by D BARNARD from South Africa
Cons: SIZE Review: After paying in total R800 (SA) for this item, which is very expensive, but in the light of it being something very special to my 12 year old son and being a birthday present, I ordered it. We ordered the jacket size 14-16 believing that it would be more than correct for his size, him being 12 and of average built, and might also still keep him for a while still to come. The jacket arrived being too small. What do we do? It now hangs in the cupboard and seems te be a total waste of money.

My grandson was thrilled... by Laura from Finksburg, Maryland
Pros: Very realistic with the patches Cons: I would have preferred leather to the vinyl it's made with, but he'll probably outgrow it before he wears it out. Review: he has taken a liking to all things related to flying and aircraft, so he was please to have this authentic looking jacket.

Good looking but no substance by Shana Young from Homewood, IL
Pros: Nice, colorful patches, good leather look Cons: Look not consistant with lack of warmth Review: My son had this jacket as a hand-me-down and I loved it. When he outgrew it I ordered a new one. Not only does it run really small(as they state on the site) but the quality is no longer the same. They stopped adding the quilting in the lining which makes the jacket inappropriate for cooler weather. This makes no sense because it has the faux shearling collar which makes it look like a winter jacket. It looks really nice but I was disappointed with the lack of insulation.

by Becky from McMurray, PA
Pros: great visual effect for the bomber jacket + you've got the only one I could find Cons: not a durable or warm as his old one Review: My son loves his new bomber jacket. It replaces one he has had since he was five. The quality isn't as durable as I had hoped, but he's happy. You should carry this in one more size before adult, 18/20.

by Mom in NY from NY
Pros: Like the real thing Cons: None so far Review: My 6 yr old military obsessed son loves this jacket. He wears it everywhere. He loves the real patches and the cool map lining. His buddies think it is pretty cool too and so does WWII grandpa.

by Marcia from Jefferson,GA
Pros: Fits to size and workmanship is good Cons: none Review: This was the PERFECT gift for my 10 year old grandson, we had to make him take it off. I had looked everywhere for a Bomber jacket for a child ad could not find one locally, I live in Atlanta,Ga. Will purchase again from you and am 110% satisfied with my purchase.

One cool jacket! by A Cool Mom from Richardson, Tx
Pros: Great looking, great price. Cons: None yet. Review: My 3rd grader was soooo excited to see that Santa brought him a bomber jacket. In fact, all his buddies at school love it too. Everyone likes the patches, the fuzzy collar, everything! His teacher even told me that some days he never even takes it off during class. =-) This is a great product at a wonderful price. And believe me, I searched and searched for a bomber jacket that wasn't too pricy. This jacket is the bomb!!!
