Aviator’s leather jacket with a story—crafted for those who value heritage and precision.

The PN5037PL147 00006 Cuoio is a slim-fit leather jacket made from sheep leather, designed in Italy by Aeronautica Militare. It merges the classic aviator silhouette with modern details, such as a biker-style collar and adjustable cuffs, to create a piece that is both functional and steeped in military tradition. The jacket’s aged finish and multiple patches pay homage to the 51st Wing of Istrana, a tactical reconnaissance and support unit of the Italian Air Force, known for its collaboration with AMX and Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft. This is not just a jacket—it’s a nod to aviation history, reimagined for everyday wear.

Designed for movement, built to last.

The jacket’s slim-fit cut ensures a tailored look without sacrificing comfort, while the full-length zip closure and snap-button neck strap provide secure fastening. Two zippered side pockets offer practical storage, and the adjustable cuffs—featuring both zips and press studs—allow for a customised fit. The absence of fur lining makes it versatile for year-round wear, whether layered over a lightweight sweater in autumn or paired with a heavier knit in winter. The sheep leather, known for its softness and durability, will develop a unique patina over time, adapting to the wearer’s lifestyle and adding character to the jacket.

Italian quality, military inspiration.

Made in Italy, this jacket reflects the country’s long-standing expertise in leatherwork. The 100% polyester lining ensures ease of wear, while the high-quality sheep leather exterior guarantees longevity. The patches, meticulously placed on the front and sleeves, are more than decorative—they tell the story of the 51st Wing’s legacy, making this jacket a conversation piece for those who appreciate detail and history. Whether you’re drawn to its military roots or its sleek, contemporary design, the PN5037PL147 00006 Cuoio is a statement of style and substance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of leather is used and how does it age over time?

This jacket is made from 100% sheep leather, known for its softness and lightweight feel. Over time, sheep leather develops a rich patina, becoming more supple and gaining character with wear. It’s naturally breathable, making it comfortable across seasons.

How should I interpret the Italian sizing for this jacket?

The sizing follows Italian standards, which typically run smaller than US or UK sizes. For example, an Italian 50 corresponds to a UK 36 or US 40. Refer to the size conversion chart to ensure a slim-fit that aligns with your measurements.

Are the patches removable or sewn permanently?

The patches dedicated to the 51st Istrana Wing are sewn permanently onto the jacket. They’re part of the design and contribute to its authentic aviator-inspired aesthetic.

Can this jacket be worn in warmer weather?

Yes, the sheep leather is lightweight and breathable, making it suitable for transitional seasons. However, it’s not ideal for extreme heat, as leather retains some warmth. Layering with lighter fabrics underneath is recommended for comfort.

How do I adjust the fit at the wrists and collar?

The wrists feature zipped adjusters and press studs for a customisable fit, while the collar has a press stud strap to secure it in place. These details allow you to fine-tune the jacket’s silhouette and warmth retention.

What’s the best way to care for this leather jacket?

Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a leather conditioner specifically for sheep leather to maintain its suppleness. Avoid excessive moisture and never machine wash or dry clean unless specified by a professional.

Is the jacket lined, and what material is used?

Yes, it has a 100% polyester lining. The lining adds a layer of comfort and helps the jacket retain its shape while making it easier to slip on and off.
