An unmistakable icon of cold-weather aviation style, this Schott LC1259 B-3 Sheepskin Bomber Jacket carries forward the enduring spirit of early flight gear with a sense of weight, purpose, and authenticity. Crafted from full-weight sheepskin with a striking white shearling interior, it reflects the uncompromising approach to warmth and protection that defined the original winter flying jackets. Designed not for flair, but for absolute dependability, it offers the presence and heritage collectors look for in a true shearling piece.
The exterior sheepskin shows a beautifully developed patina, deep, varied, and rich with tonal character. Years of careful wear have shaped a surface that feels alive, every crease and shade adding to its depth. The white shearling interior remains plush and substantial, providing structure, insulation, and that unmistakable tactile luxury that only genuine sheepskin delivers. Classic B-3 details define the silhouette: wide panel construction, double throat buckles, rolled shearling edges, and reinforced seam binding that speaks to the jacket’s rugged origins.
Professionally cleaned and conditioned in-house, the sheepskin has been preserved with great care, maintaining its natural oils and suppleness while respecting the jacket’s true vintage character. The hardware has been serviced for dependable function, ensuring the piece remains fully wearable without diminishing its authenticity or patina.
The condition is excellent vintage throughout. The leather is robust, the shearling is dense and soft, and the jacket retains the strong, confident shape associated with traditional winter flight garments. It stands as a testament to enduring craftsmanship, built to protect, aged with integrity, and ready for decades more of life.
