Contrasting leather reinforcing patches and glove pocket. The sheepskin does not have the stiff acrylic finish of the originals, and the shearling is a bit shorter than originals. I was reluctant to produce this jacket, but customers were ecstatic about how soft and flexible this jacket is compared to the other reproductions. Also, it is lighter in weight and much more comfortable to wear below 30,000 feet. So you get a truly practical jacket that captures all the authentic styling of the original.

How does the sizing of this jacket compare to other military jackets?

The jacket generally runs true to size, with a 44 in this B-3 fitting similarly to a 44 in A-2s and G-1s for a true military fit. However, some jackets can be a tad snug in the stated size. If you plan to wear layers underneath, it is recommended to go up one size.

What is the quality of the leather and shearling like?

The leather is soft and supple, and the wool shearling is also soft. The sheepskin does not have the stiff acrylic finish found on original jackets. The shearling is a bit shorter than on original B-3s.

Does the jacket include handwarmer pockets?

No, the jacket does not include handwarmer pockets. This design choice is consistent with the authentic styling of the original B-3 flight jacket.

How does the jacket perform in cold weather?

The jacket is described as being very comfortable to wear in cold conditions. It is a fairly heavy jacket, making it suitable for very cold weather. It is also lighter in weight than other reproductions, making it more comfortable to wear below 30,000 feet.

How does the fit of the sleeves compare to the body of the jacket?

While the body of the jacket generally fits true to size, the sleeves can be entirely too short for some. It is advisable to check the measurements or consider going up a size if sleeve length is a concern.

Is this jacket suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the jacket is described as being very comfortable for everyday wear. Its soft and flexible nature makes it more practical than other reproductions. It captures the authentic styling of the original while offering modern comfort.
