The verdict
Fit
Bombers in this brand tend toward fitted waists with structured shoulders. Expect a cropped length typical of contemporary bombers; size to your usual top size unless the brand runs tight.
Quality
Faux leather at $248 is mid-tier for the category—durability depends on the specific synthetic (coating longevity varies). Good American typically delivers clean stitching and hardware.
Is the price fair?
Mid-range for a faux-leather statement piece. The price reflects brand markup more than material quality, but it's defensible for a cropped, trend-forward silhouette.
Best for
Shoppers looking for a polished, feminine take on bomber tailoring without committing to leather care.
Care
Wipe clean with a soft damp cloth; avoid machine washing and direct heat to preserve the faux-leather coating.
What owners report about Good American jackets & outerwear
Independent feedback on this jacket line comes mostly from rental-platform reviewers rather than editorial coverage, and it is positive but thin. On one faux-leather jacket style, reviewers average 4.5 of 5 across 17 reviews, yet 13 of 17 report it running large; the faux-leather blazer averages 5.0 across 18 reviews with a third of reviewers reporting it runs large and none reporting it runs small. Reviewers like the pieces overall; the consistent thread is that the jacket cuts are intentionally oversized and fit big.
- Strengths
- The faux-leather outerwear rates highly with reviewers, averaging 4.5 to 5.0 stars on rental-platform review counts in the teens.
- Watch out for
- Fit consistently skews large across jacket styles, and there is little independent reporting on the jacket line's long-term durability.
- Sizing
- Reviewer fit data skews runs-large — 13 of 17 reviewers of one jacket style said it ran big — so consider sizing down unless you want the full oversized look.
