This goatskin leather jacket by Schott is a replica of the standard G-1 flight jacket issued to enlisted Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard aviators in the 1940s. Known to moviegoers everywhere as the flight jacket worn by Tom Cruise and his co-stars in Top Gun, it remains part of the uniform for officers and enlisted aviation personnel in the U. S. Navy.


This replica follows the construction of earlier jackets, with a goatskin shell and sheepskin collar (current uniform issue is usually cowhide with a synthetic collar). The lining, cuffs, and hem are all nylon. Two roomy exterior patch pockets snap shut. Each jacket is individually hand-cut and tailored in the U.S.


Made in the U.S. Goatskin, sheepskin, nylon. Men’s sizes M (38-40), L (42-44), XL (46-48).


Professional leather cleaning only.
