MEN'S Aviator B3 brown shaded sheepskin fur leather bomber flying jacket

MEN'S Aviator B3 brown shaded sheepskin fur leather bomber flying jacket

The MEN'S Aviator B3 brown shaded sheepskin fur leather bomber flying jacket takes the wartime flying pattern and keeps the part that matters most, which is the shading. The brown hide is finished with a darker tone through the seams and a lighter pull across the panels, so the jacket reads as aged sheepskin rather than flat dyed leather. Inside, natural shearling runs the full body and sleeves. It is a heavy piece, and that weight is exactly what keeps you warm without a single gram of synthetic filler.

Material: Shaded brown sheepskin with natural shearling fur lining
Fit: True to size bomber cut, hip length
Closure: Heavy front zip with throat strap and buckled hem belts
Color: Shaded brown with off-white shearling
Care: Dry brush the fur, wipe the hide, store on a broad hanger, condition seasonally

The Shaded Brown Finish

Shading is applied by hand after the hide is dyed. A darker pigment is worked into the panel edges and stitch lines, then buffed back on the flat areas. The effect is depth, so the jacket looks lived in under daylight instead of appearing like one solid block of colour. Because it is applied to real sheepskin, the tone keeps shifting as the leather softens.

Fur Lining and Winter Performance

The shearling here is the sheep's own wool, still attached to the hide. Dense fur means trapped air, and trapped air is what actually holds body heat. The collar folds up and buckles across the throat, the cuffs sit close, and the belted hem stops draughts riding up your back. In practice this jacket handles hard frost, snow and cold wind without extra layers.

Sizing and Fit Guidance

Order your normal size for a true bomber fit. The jacket is bulky by nature because of the fur, so most men do not need to size up unless they intend to wear a thick sweater under it. Sleeves finish at the wrist bone and the body ends at the hip, which keeps the silhouette clean rather than boxy.

Made to Order in Your Measurements

Standard sizing runs XS to 5XL, and Custom is free of charge. Send your chest, waist, sleeve length and height and the pattern is cut to those figures. Every jacket is produced after the order is placed, using the same sheepskin and shearling regardless of size.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the fur real shearling?

Yes. It is natural sheep wool on the hide, not a stitched-in synthetic pile.

What does shaded brown mean?

It is a hand-applied two-tone finish, darker at the seams and lighter across the panels, so the leather has depth instead of a flat single colour.

How heavy is this jacket?

It is heavier than a standard leather bomber because the shearling is real. That weight is what makes it warm, and most owners find it settles comfortably after a few wears.

Should I order my usual size?

Yes, order your normal jacket size. Only size up if you plan to wear a heavy knit underneath, or choose Custom and send your measurements at no extra cost.

Is it made to order?

Yes, each jacket is cut and stitched after your order is confirmed.

How do I look after the shearling?

Brush the fur gently, wipe the leather with a dry cloth, keep it off radiators, and apply leather conditioner once or twice a season. Never machine wash it.

Do you ship internationally?
