The stand\/fold-down collar and knitted waistband and cuffs keep the silhouette true to the flight jacket's original utilitarian design, built here with real leather rather than a distressed-print imitation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Leather\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCut from full-grain sheepskin at 1.2mm, chrome-tanned with a medium temper, this leather holds enough structure to keep its shape through regular wear while still softening naturally over time. The vintage finish is what creates the jacket's aged, weathered surface — a genuine leather-finishing technique, not a printed or coated effect, which is why the texture holds up rather than wearing off.
