During WWII, the ‘battle worn’ look of a pilot’s jacket was a visual reflection of his courage and bravery. Recreating this effect, the antique lambskin features purposely made surface distress and natural graining to recreate a weather-beaten appearance. With continued wear, the color of the leather will lighten and its texture will become richer, adding to the vintage characteristics of the A-2 leather bomber jacket.
Originally created in 1985, this unique vintage flight jacket starred in the iconic “Top Gun” movie. Based on early 60s specifications, this jacket has a light russet colored antiqued mouton collar. For authenticity, the leather and the patches have been treated with a special vintage treatment, giving it a worn in patina. Decorated with all 17 patches and the USN Anchor pin, this aviation jacket conforms to the movie original and is an unsurpassed piece of naval and movie history.
