Metallica 80s Vintage 1988 The Shortest Straw Bomber Jacket

🎸 Celebrate the Legacy
Celebrate the fury and visual chaos of Metallica’s 1988 …And Justice for All era with this limited edition bomber jacket featuring “The Shortest Straw” artwork. The eye-popping design showcases a warped skull clutching straws with flaming eyeballs orbiting all around — topped off with the iconic lyric “The shortest straw has been pulled for you!” printed directly across the front. This jacket isn’t just warm — it’s loud.

🗺️ A Glimpse into Metallica History
Released at the peak of Metallica’s political and sonic power, “The Shortest Straw” served as a rally cry against injustice, censorship, and paranoia. This design draws from that legacy with a punk-meets-thrash attitude — now reimagined on a premium bomber silhouette. It’s built for fans who know the riffs, understand the message, and want to wear history with pride. Whether you’re at a gig, on the street, or layering up in colder weather, this bomber lets you carry the band’s 80s defiance in every thread.
