A-2 Lightweight Leather Jacket

The original A-2 flight jacket was developed for American pilots in WWII, and ever since, it has been a coveted layer sported by all kinds of highly fashionable people—Lou Reed and JFK among them. Schott’s version preserves the A-2’s unique details, including hidden snaps under the collar and knit cuffs and hem, and its durable cowhide leather body will patina beautifully over time. With its handy array of pockets and cozy polyester lining, it's the kind of versatile layer you can count on for years to come (no pilot’s license required).
