#12916-LUFTWAFFE LEATHER WINTER FLIGHT JACKET:
Fine example of the heavy weight winter flight jacket as
worn by Luftwaffe pilots & flight crews. It is
produced of blue-grey suede leather having exterior seam
bindings of grey HBT tape. The jacket has a wide collar
of artificial brown fur having that secures with a
double snap leather strap with loop. The front has a
working zipper complete with leather pull tab along with
a large pocket on the left side with exterior leather
strap for securing an oxygen hose. It has a snap close
waist and zippered cuffs with snap secured tabs &
leather pulls. Both cuffs have a wind resistant interior
of brown cotton with an elastic band & snap closure. The
interior has a full, thick lining of white sheepskin
that has an interior waist belt of tan HBT cloth with
aluminum buckles. It does retain its original machine
applied clothing label but sadly it is faded out and
hard to read. The jacket over all is in exceptional
condition, complete with all components and free of the
tears and repairs almost always encountered with jackets
of this type. Shows only minor age, being a wonderful
piece of aviation history in Condition II+ $1395.00
