Frequently Asked Questions
What is BECK Northeaster Flying Togs?
BECK Northeaster Flying Togs is a small-batch American aviation jacket maker producing heritage horsehide flight jackets to original specifications. The brand focuses on hand-finished construction and front-quarter horsehide.
What is front-quarter horsehide?
Front-quarter horsehide is the densest, toughest section of the horse hide — used historically because it offers the best abrasion resistance and longest service life. Standard horsehide jackets often use other panels.
How do BECK jackets compare to Cockpit USA?
Cockpit USA produces flight jackets to military contract spec at standard prices. BECK Northeaster takes a more artisanal approach with heavier hides and hand-finishing. Both are American-made; BECK sits at higher price points.
How long does it take to break in a BECK horsehide jacket?
Months. The leather is heavyweight and stiff at first — that's the construction working as intended. Wear breaks the hide in to your specific frame; the patina that develops is unique to you.
Are BECK jackets made in the USA?
Yes. The BECK Northeaster line is American-made by craftsmen using small-batch production methods. Each jacket is hand-finished.
Can BECK Flying Togs be used for motorcycle riding?
Some are designed specifically for motorcycle use — see our BECK motorcycle jackets collection for those styles. Others are pure aviation cuts.
How do I care for a BECK horsehide jacket?
Wipe clean after wear, condition periodically with quality products from our leather care collection, and store in a cool, dry place. With care, expect generations of use.
