An aviator bomber that marries heritage quality manufacturing with rugged warmth

The Kavalan Tobacco / Cognac jacket from Iron & Resin is a modern take on the classic aviator bomber, designed for those who value both style and substance. Crafted from 7 mm lambskin leather on the exterior, it offers a robust yet supple feel, while the 100 % shearling interior and collar ensure exceptional insulation—perfect for autumn and winter. The jacket’s construction is built to last, with double-needle stitching on critical stress points like the shoulders and arms, reinforced by Talon® oversized zippers and antique brass buckles. The attention to detail is evident in the contrast leather accents on the sleeves, pockets, and back, as well as the stylised stitching, including bartack and zig-zag reinforcements. This is a piece that doesn’t just keep you warm; it tells a story with every stitch.

A design rooted in aviation history, reimagined for contemporary wear

The aviator bomber has its origins in the early 20th century, when pilots needed durable, insulated jackets to withstand the harsh conditions of open cockpits. Iron & Resin pays homage to this legacy while updating it for modern wardrobes. The Kavalan’s regular fit ensures versatility, accommodating layering without sacrificing a streamlined silhouette. The inclined hand pockets, lined with brushed cotton, add a touch of practicality, while the adjustable waist and collar buckles allow for a customisable fit. Whether you’re navigating city streets or embracing the outdoors, this jacket bridges the gap between functional outerwear and timeless style.

Crafted for those who appreciate the finer details

What sets the Kavalan apart is its uncompromising construction. The 7 mm lambskin leather isn’t just thick—it’s designed to develop a rich patina over time, evolving with the wearer. The shearling lining, meanwhile, provides natural warmth without bulk, making it ideal for transitional seasons as well as deep winter. The jacket’s weight—just under 4 lb—strikes a balance between durability and comfort, ensuring it doesn’t feel cumbersome. Inside, a drawstring with a hanging loop offers additional adjustability, while the reinforced stitching guarantees longevity. This is a jacket that’s as much about performance as it is about aesthetics, built to accompany you through years of wear.

Iron & Resin is a brand that thrives at the intersection of heritage and modernity. Founded by enthusiasts of vintage workwear and military-inspired apparel, the label reinterprets classic designs with a focus on premium materials and carefully made quality manufacturing. Each piece is a nod to the past, yet tailored for contemporary lifestyles—whether it’s the rugged charm of an aviator bomber or the timeless appeal of a leather jacket.
