1940s Shearling Knit Sleeve Leather Flight Jacket
This piece represents a classic 1930s to 1940s aviation or motoring civilian flight jacket, often referred to as a hybrid knit-sleeve flight jacket. Constructed with a heavy pebbled leather body, thick wool knit raglan sleeves, a plush mouton or shearling collar, and a full cotton lining, it reflects the specialized utilitarian outerwear designed for open-cockpit aviation and early motoring warmth. The deep drop-shoulder paneling, articulated torso seamwork, and elasticated back waistband are hallmarks of pre-1950s sports jacket construction.
