A legacy of aviation heritage. This 1970s sheepskin flying jacket channels the fearless energy of wartime aviation—drawing direct inspiration from the iconic Douglas WWII British flying jacket. Rugged, warm, and built with presence, it reflects a decade when craftsmanship and classic military design were reinterpreted for a new era of bold, individual style.

Constructed from firm-grain sheepskin, the exterior offers natural weather resistance while softening over time to a perfectly worn-in texture. Inside, the thick shearling lining provides full insulation, wrapping the torso and collar in plush warmth. A high storm collar with buckle fastening recalls open-cockpit flight gear, while angled shearling-trimmed pockets, side buckles, and zippered cuffs add both utility and refinement. It’s a practical piece designed with intent—and worn with authority.

Professionally cleaned and conditioned, the sheepskin remains supple and strong, with all original hardware intact and fully functional. The shearling lining is in excellent condition, showing only minimal signs of wear consistent with age. Stitching, buckles, and zippers have been preserved, requiring no repair.
