Classic Aviator Flight Jacket

The Classic Aviator Flight Jacket is a clean cordovan A-2 with none of the usual roughing up. Deep burgundy-brown leather, knit cuffs and waistband, shoulder epaulets and two scalloped pocket flaps.

The pilot jacket, kept neat.

A-2 Shape, Smooth Finish

The A-2 is the jacket most people mean when they say flight jacket. A snap-down collar, a straight zip and a short, trim body that stops at the waist. This version keeps every part of that pattern and leaves the leather smooth, so it looks sharp from the first wear.

The cordovan colour sits between brown and oxblood, and it picks up warm highlights in daylight.

The leather is cut from a single smooth surface, so the look is neat rather than worn-in. If you prefer a rougher, aged finish, our distressed A-2 is the one to pick instead.

Classic Aviator Flight Jacket Features

• Cordovan leather: smooth, with a deep colour.
• Knit cuffs and waistband: seal in the warmth.
• Epaulets: snap on each shoulder.
• Scalloped pocket flaps: two, with snaps.

Sizing and Care

The cut is trim through the body, so size up if you wear thick layers. Wipe with a dry cloth, condition twice a year and keep it away from radiators. Over time the leather will soften and darken a touch at the creases, which is part of the charm.
