Bubble Hem Bomber Jacket in Chocolate Dark Brown
The verdict
Fit
The bubble hem suggests a tapered, on-trend silhouette; typical of the brand's precision fit. Size true unless you prefer layering room.
Quality
Citizens of Humanity is mid-premium for jackets; at this price you should expect well-finished seams and a structured shell, standard for the line.
Price check
At $498, this sits in the premium range for bombers. Fair for the brand's design reputation, though the bubble hem is more about trend than longevity.
Best for
Urban shoppers looking for a contemporary jacket with branded fit and seasonal appeal.
Care
Dry clean unless the shell is marked machine-washable; structured jackets in this tier typically require professional care.

Fit check: Citizens of Humanity
Runs largeCitizens of Humanity tends to run about half a size large and stretches with wear, so most owners size down for a fitted look.
A stylist's sizing guide reports the brand "generally run[s] about half a size large" and that owners "expect about an inch of stretch in the waistband after a few hours of wear," advising those between sizes to go down one. Hands-on reviewers back this up across cuts: one who ordered her chart size in the Horseshoe jean found it loose and repurchased a size down, and a shorts reviewer says the relaxed styles "run really big" and always sizes down. The caveat owners flag is line-level: relaxed and baggy cuts run largest, while high-rise styles fit closer to true size — and older forum threads on the skinny-era styles were more mixed.
Sizing advice: Size down one if you're between sizes or want a snug fit — especially in relaxed and baggy cuts, which stretch and loosen with wear; stay true to size only if you want the intentionally slouchy look.

What owners report about Citizens of Humanity jackets & outerwear
Citizens of Humanity's outerwear draws on the same construction approach the brand built its name on in denim. Gear Patrol's review of the brand's Service Jacket highlighted 100% cotton fabric that's hand-sanded for a finished look, a corduroy collar, reinforced stitching, and a heavyweight bedford-twill hand despite its khaki canvas appearance. Broader customer feedback on the brand's denim -- which shares fabric sourcing with the jackets -- is more mixed: some reviewers describe the fabric as sturdy and shape-retaining through regular wear, while others say it felt thin for the price and began fraying after only a handful of washes, with sizing reported as inconsistent between styles.
- Strengths
- The construction details reviewers and editors call out most on the jackets -- reinforced stitching, a hand-sanded finish, a corduroy collar -- read as considered rather than decorative.
- Watch out for
- Some buyers of the brand's denim report the fabric feeling thin for the price and fraying after only a few washes, alongside sizing that varies from one style to the next.
- Sizing
- Sizing has been reported as inconsistent across styles, so check the specific style's fit notes rather than assuming true-to-size across the jacket line.
