Women’s Aviator Pilot Style B3 Shearling Jacket

Women’s Aviator Pilot Style B3 Shearling Jacket

Core Design and Materials

The genuine B3 jacket is historically crafted from thick sheepskin leather with the wool still attached, creating a dense, plush inner lining. This unique construction is known as twin-faced shearling. We also have Mens Retro Red Waxed Vintage Old Jacket.

This material provides exceptional insulation and breathability, originally vital for high-altitude WWII bomber pilots. The exterior is robust, typically dark brown or black leather, contrasted by the cream or white shearling wool.

Essential Aviator Features

The B3 jacket is defined by its substantial shearling collar, which often features leather buckle straps. This wide collar can be securely fastened up to the chin for ultimate protection against cold winds.

Other key features include a heavy-duty front zipper closure, leather-welted seams for durability, and adjustable leather straps at the waist. These straps allow the wearer to customize the fit, sealing in warmth.

Styling for Women

For women, the aviator shearling jacket has been reimagined in tailored cuts that maintain the classic bulk but offer a flattering silhouette. It works best as the centerpiece of a layered winter outfit.
