Originally designed in 1937 for Royal Air Force pilots flying open-cockpit fighters, the RAF Sheepskin Bomber Jacket remains one of the most iconic pieces of military outerwear ever created. Proudly manufactured in the USA, this Cockpit USA interpretation uses short-sheared sheepskin to replicate the wartime modifications RAF pilots made to improve mobility inside the tight cockpits of Spitfires and Hurricanes.

Early RAF crews discovered that the extremely thick shearling of the original design restricted movement during combat. To solve this, pilots had their jackets trimmed down—creating a lighter, more flexible version that maintained warmth without bulk. Cockpit USA recreates that improved silhouette, making this RAF jacket easy to layer with a sweater or mid-layer while still delivering exceptional cold-weather performance.

The shearling naturally develops an “antiqued” patina as it ages, producing subtle highs and lows in the wool that mimic the look of a true WWII veteran jacket. These variations do not affect durability; each piece is cut from genuine sheepskin and finished with authentic RAF details including a buckle throat latch, leather belt, ventilation grommets, and heavy-duty zipper cuffs.

This is a historically accurate, rugged, and refined sheepskin jacket built for collectors, riders, and anyone who appreciates timeless aviation style.
