Description: About Aviation Leathercraft Aviation Leathercraft was founded in 1976 by Simon Green after he contacted Irvin GB Ltd to obtain extensive photographs of the original Irvin jackets RAF pilots wore during World War II. Green obtained patterns and original machinery from one of Irvin's original subcontractors from WWII and impressed Irvin with the jackets he made. Irvin agreed to license their name to Green's company, making Aviation Leathercraft the only one allowed to make Irvin jackets bearing the name. Description This vintage Irvin jacket, an early 1970s design, is a true testament to Aviation Leathercraft's commitment to quality. Crafted from thick, luxurious sheepskin, it offers unparalleled warmth and comfort. The jacket's oversized collar, long zippers on the arms, and reinforced exterior seams are all designed to provide maximum protection and durability. This jacket is a true piece of aviation history that you can wear and enjoy. If you know anything about the Irvins, then you know that this jacket is one of the rare patterns and is an excellent example of the original Irvin design, with no added pockets like later versions. Specialist cleaned & professionally restored. Please note that this jacket has undergone a meticulous restoration process to ensure its quality and condition.
