Palace Bomber Jackets Resale Value

A used Palace bomber jacket is typically worth £28 to £126 (approximately $37 to $168), against £20 to £90 for bomber jackets generally. Palace is a London skate label that sells in weekly drops, so its resale is organised by season rather than by product. Buyers ask which drop a piece came from before they ask what condition it is in.

Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.

What holds its value across Palace

Pieces carrying the Tri-Ferg logo, which is the mark the brand is recognised by and the one buyers search for
Collaboration releases, particularly the sportswear and heritage partnerships, which were produced in smaller numbers than the main line
Early-season pieces from before the label’s wider recognition, which are treated as archive rather than as used clothing
Original hoodies and tees in unfaded colours, since the print and the colour are what the garment is bought for

What pulls Palace resale value down

Cracked prints, which is the standard end for screen-printed streetwear and is not repairable
Faded colours from hot washing, which takes the life out of the graphics the piece exists for
Counterfeits, which are common enough that buyers ask for tag photographs as a matter of course
Missing or cut-out interior labels, which remove the detail buyers use to place the garment in a season

Identifying and dating yours

Photograph the interior neck and wash tags flat, since these carry the season code buyers use to date the piece
Name the drop and year in the listing where you can, because that is how this market is actually searched
Photograph the Tri-Ferg print close up — alignment and ink quality are where copies fail

What lifts any bomber jacket, whatever the label

Bombers span military surplus, designer pieces and high-street copies, and which one you have sets the whole price.

Genuine military issue with contract labels
Recognised designer and heritage labels
Intact ribbing at cuffs, collar and hem
Working original zips

And what pulls one down

Stretched ribbing that no longer recovers
Broken or replaced zips
Cracked printed or embroidered patches
High-street copies of military patterns

Working out what yours is worth

Check the inner label for maker and any contract markings
Stretch the cuffs and hem to test recovery
Work the main zip fully

What to state in the listing

Outer material and lining composition
Pit-to-pit and body length laid flat
Condition of the ribbing at cuffs, collar and hem
Whether the zip is one-way or two-way and runs cleanly

Material, style and size: “MA-1 Nylon Bomber Jacket, Sage Green, Size M”. Material is the price driver here and the search term. If it is a genuine military issue or a recognised brand, put that in the title — both are searched deliberately.

Preparing and photographing it

Check the ribbed cuffs, collar and hem for stretch or loss of elastic, which is where bombers age first.
Test the main zip along its full length, since a two-way zip that has lost a tooth is a real deduction.
Read the composition label: nylon, wool blend, leather and satin bombers are quite different products.

Front on a hanger, zipped, full jacket in frame
The ribbed cuffs and hem close up, showing elasticity
The inner label with brand, size and composition
The lining and any tear, pull or stain

When it sells best, and handing it over

Strongest from September to November and again in early spring. Nylon bombers sell year round; wool and leather ones follow the cold.

Light and easy to post, and folds small. A mailing bag is fine unless it is leather, which is worth boxing.

What buyers ask

Does the season matter when selling Palace?

Yes, more than condition in many cases. Pieces are released in small weekly drops, so buyers search by season and collaboration rather than by garment type.

How should I wash printed streetwear?

Cold, inside out, and hung to dry. Heat is what cracks screen prints and fades the colour, and both of those are permanent deductions on resale.

How much is a Palace bomber jacket worth?

Roughly £28 to £126 depending on condition, against £20 to £90 for bomber jackets generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.

What the fees would take elsewhere

Seller-side rates verified 26 Jul 2026, percentages only — the per-order and processing charges those platforms add are excluded, so the real gap is wider.
