You get the same wind resistance, the same silhouette and the same sealed openings, at roughly a third of the weight. It works from autumn through spring rather than only in deep winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you own one flight jacket, this is the one to own. The shearling is a specialist second.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat the design details do\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShort body, so nothing bunches when seated. Knit cuffs and waistband, sealing the openings without bulk. A close collar rather than lapels, because loose fabric near controls was a hazard in a cockpit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll of it functional in origin, and all of it useful in ordinary clothing — which is why the pattern outlived the aircraft by eighty years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit, care and honest notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRegular fit with room for a shirt or fine knit at your usual size. Size down for closer over a tee, up for a jumper. Knit hem at the waist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare: wipe with a soft dry cloth, condition once or twice a year, hang rather than fold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStated plainly: this is a reproduction-style fashion jacket. It is not military surplus, carries no genuine service insignia or unit markings, and we make no claim of issue history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMade to order, XS to 5XL and custom\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade after you order in XS to 5XL, plus Custom — chest, shoulder, sleeve and back length. Because the knit waistband sits at the natural waist, back length is worth specifying if you are tall or short.
