Made following the 1938 Irvin Airchute Co. pattern for the Royal Air Force, this jacket was the hero of the Battle of Britain. Worn over London skies by English fighter pilots flying Spitfire and Hurricane fighters in air battles against Nazi forces, this Cockpit USA RAF bomber jacket provided the warmth and freedom of movement needed during combat. This Dunkirk hooded version adds a removable coyote fur lined sheepskin hood for added warmth.
As worn, the Irvin jacket's leatherized sheepskin panels will distress to a suede finish, which will provide that battle worn look over time.
