Royal Air Force · The Irvin Pattern, Hooded
The Irvin jacket,
built for worse weather.
The Imperial War Museums documents the Irvin flying jacket — adopted by the RAF in 1938, worn by the Few over the Battle of Britain, cut short-waisted for the cockpits of Spitfires and Hurricanes. The Dunkirk is Cockpit USA's authentic recreation of that 1938 Irvin Air Chute Co. pattern with one addition the original never had: a removable sheepskin hood, trimmed with fur, for cold the English Channel never asked of it. Handcrafted in the United States.
Leather collar belt over plush tan shearling
The Material
A patina
that can't be faked.
Plush tan sheepskin pelts deliver the Irvin's warmth; the leatherized exterior naturally distresses to a rich suede finish, developing a battle-worn character over years of wear.
Seams are welted in goatskin leather for strength; hardware is antique brass, down to the Cockpit USA buckle on the half-belt.
Construction
The 1938 pattern, plus a hood.
Removable fur-trimmed hood
The one addition to the 1938 pattern — serious cold-weather insulation that lifts off entirely.
Goatskin-welted seams
Reinforced leather welts at every seam, as the wartime originals were built.
Leather collar belt
Buckles the big collar closed against the wind.
Half-belt with Cockpit buckle
Antique-brass hardware cinches the short-waisted Irvin cut.
Canvas handwarmer pockets
Two side-entry pockets, warm where your hands actually go.
Zippered sleeve cuffs
Seal the sleeve against wind — or open it over gloves.
