In the United States, two models set the genre: the Air Force A-2, made from 1931, and the Navy G-1, according to the history of the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Flight_jacket\"\u003eflight jacket\u003c\/a\u003e. This men's leather flight jacket takes up the logic: a thick leather, a shearling collar, ribs that shut out the cold, two large pockets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 100% leather, Moroccan, vegetable-tanned; ribs: 100% French wool, knitted in France; metal zip: vintage brass, made in Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: made in Morocco, finished in France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetail: cowhide leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetail: removable shearling collar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetail: deadstock sourcing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA vegetable-tanned cowhide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tanning_(leather)\"\u003eVegetable tanning\u003c\/a\u003e is the oldest way of making a hide rot-proof, strong and supple; faster chrome tanning took over in the 20th century and remains the most common today. Ours is vegetable-tanned, done in Morocco on a thick cowhide. The process is slower, and the leather shows it: a firm hand at first, that softens with wear, and a surface that darkens and shades at the folds, elbows and pockets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA removable shearling collar\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe collar is curly shearling, the woolly hide that serves as a barrier against the wind at the neck, where the cold gets in first. It is removable: keep it in full winter, take it off in mid-season, and the jacket changes character depending on whether you wear it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLampo zip, period buttons, French wool\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fastening is a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.lampo.eu\/\"\u003eLampo\u003c\/a\u003e zip, from the Italian maker, in size 8: a tooth size above average, stronger, in hand-patinated brass. The buttons come from unused vintage American stock. The cuffs and hem are 100% French wool rib, knitted in France, which limit air entering. The two large patch pockets close with snap fasteners hidden under the leather. The jacket is made in Morocco and finished in France.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCut and sizing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraight cut, with about 10 cm (4 in) of ease around the chest: enough to wear a fine knit underneath without flapping. From S to 2XL. The thick leather shapes itself to the body over time; the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/guide-des-tailles\"\u003esize guide\u003c\/a\u003e explains how to compare with a jacket you already wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to wear a men's leather flight jacket\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver a \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/henley-gaufre\"\u003ewaffle henley\u003c\/a\u003e or a \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/le-col-roule\"\u003eturtleneck sweater\u003c\/a\u003e, shearling collar up in full winter.

Dust it with a soft, dry cloth after each wear, and nourish it twice a year with a leather milk or cream, in a thin layer. If it gets wet in the rain, let it dry at room temperature, away from a heat source. A stain is dabbed, never rubbed. Store it on a wide hanger, away from light, never in a plastic bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSize chart\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003cth\u003eHalf chest (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\u003cth\u003eFront length (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\u003cth\u003eSleeve length (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\u003cth\u003eSize to choose\u003c\/th\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e53\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e68\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e64\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eS\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e55\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e69\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e65\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eM\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e57\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e70\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e66\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eL\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e59\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e71\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e67\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eXL\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e61\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e72\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e68\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eXXL\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Champ de Manoeuvres","offers":[{"title":"S","offer_id":48255934726477,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":48255934759245,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":48255934792013,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":48255934824781,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"2XL","offer_id":48255941574989,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/7115\/4005\/files\/blousonaviateurbombardiermarron_1.jpg?v=1789671745","url":"https:\/\/champdemanoeuvres.com\/en\/products\/mens-leather-flight-jacket-shearling-collar","provider":"Champ de Manoeuvres ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
