Military Jackets, Gothic Coats and Everyday Outerwear

Military jackets, coats and bombers in one collection

From a military jacket or gothic coat to a leather jacket, bomber, fleece or puffer, this collection brings together the coats and jackets in the EMP selection listed on Vinyles.com. Brandit takes up a large share of it, alongside Khujo, Urban Classics, Black Premium by EMP and Mauritius. You'll also find EMP's in-house labels RED by EMP, Gothicana by EMP and Rock Rebel by EMP, plus Sublevel, Noisy May, Vintage Industries, Hell Bunny and Alpha Industries.

Every item is sold by EMP, an online store specializing in band merchandise and alternative fashion. The "View on EMP" button on each product page opens its store, and price, sizes, stock, shipping and returns follow EMP's own terms.

How to choose a military jacket

A military jacket borrows from army clothing: khaki, olive or camo tones, patch pockets, durable canvas, a stand-up collar or built-in hood. Within that look, a field jacket is straight-cut with large pockets, a flight bomber is short and gathered at the waist, and a parka runs longer. Brandit, a German brand focused on military-inspired clothing, offers plenty of them, and Alpha Industries is closely associated with the MA-1 bomber, which it produced for the US military.

Gothic coats, leather jackets and retro styles

For gothic coats and gothic jackets, look at Gothicana by EMP, Poizen Industries, Killstar, KIHILIST by KILLSTAR, Vixxsin and Banned Alternative: long, fitted cuts, high collars, bold button closures and plenty of black. Mauritius covers leather jackets, Sublevel and Urban Classics handle puffers and quilted jackets, and Khujo brings winter coats. Hell Bunny, King Kerosin and Queen Kerosin add a rockabilly-inspired retro touch, and a few jackets carry band designs from Rammstein, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Motörhead, AC/DC and Ghost.

Care and layering

Each fabric has its own rules: canvas jackets are often machine washable, wool coats and leather jackets usually need specialist care, and a puffer should be dried carefully to keep its loft. The care label always has the final word. For the layers underneath, hoodies, sweatshirts and band tees from the same bands and brands are in the other merch categories.

Frequently asked questions

Who sells the jackets and coats listed on Vinyles.com?

Every coat and jacket in this collection is sold by EMP, an online store specializing in band merchandise and alternative fashion. Vinyles.com lists the items and links to EMP through the button on each product page, and price, sizes, shipping and returns are handled under EMP's terms.

How do you style a military jacket?

Wear it open over a band tee or hoodie, with dark or black jeans and boots or sneakers. Khaki and olive tones pair easily with black, which makes a military jacket an easy fit for a rock or metal wardrobe. If you plan to wear it in winter, choose a cut with room for a layer underneath.

What makes a coat gothic?

A gothic coat is usually black, long or mid-length and fitted at the waist, with details like a high collar, metal buttons, lacing or lace trim. Some cuts echo the Victorian frock coat. It works just as well over a dress as over jeans and boots, which makes it a versatile winter piece.

How do I pick the right size for a jacket or coat?

Measure your chest and sleeve length, then check the size chart on the EMP product page. Think about what you'll wear underneath: a thick hoodie needs more room than a t-shirt. Cuts vary from brand to brand, even at the same label size, so the chart is more reliable than habit.
