A timeless aviator jacket with a rugged soul and refined details

The LCFLYW22 Black from Schott isn’t just another leather jacket—it’s a modern interpretation of the classic aviator silhouette, built for those who demand both style and substance. Crafted from thick cowhide, this jacket is designed to withstand the test of time, evolving with you as the leather develops a rich patina. The removable shearling collar (or faux fur alternative) adds a layer of warmth and texture, making it as functional as it is stylish. Whether you’re navigating city streets or weekend getaways, its robust construction and thoughtful details—like the zippered closure under a snap-button placket—ensure durability without sacrificing comfort.

A jacket that adapts to your life

One of the standout features of this Schott jacket is its versatility. The detachable quilted vest offers an extra layer of insulation for colder days, while the elasticated cuffs and hem provide a snug fit that keeps the wind out. With a total of six pockets—including two snap-button flap pockets, two side-entry hand pockets, and two secure inner pockets—it’s as practical as it is polished. The polyester lining adds warmth without bulk, and the shoulder epaulettes and back yokes give it that unmistakable aviator aesthetic. At 66 cm in length (size L), it strikes the perfect balance between coverage and mobility, making it ideal for layering over a simple T-shirt and jeans or even a chunky knit.

Built to last, designed to impress

Schott’s commitment to quality is evident in every stitch. The cowhide leather, certified by the Leather Working Group, ensures ethical sourcing and durability, while the reinforced seams and snap buttons speak to the jacket’s rugged construction. The elasticated waistband and cuffs aren’t just functional—they’re a nod to the brand’s heritage, blending vintage inspiration with contemporary wearability. Whether you’re drawn to its aviation roots or its effortless cool, this jacket is more than an outer layer—it’s a statement piece that only gets better with age.

Schott isn’t just a brand—it’s a piece of American history. Founded in 1928 by brothers Irving and Jack Schott, the label is credited with creating the first leather motorcycle jacket, the iconic Perfecto, in 1928. Since then, Schott has dressed everyone from Marlon Brando to punk rockers, cementing its place as a pioneer in outerwear. Known for their uncompromising quality manufacturing and timeless designs, Schott jackets are built to last, blending rugged durability with effortless style. The LCFLYW22 Black carries this legacy forward, offering a modern take on the aviator jacket while staying true to the brand’s roots.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

This jacket is made from thick cowhide leather. Cowhide is known for its durability and develops a rich patina over time, especially with regular wear. The leather will soften slightly while maintaining its structure, and the colour may deepen, giving it a unique character.

How warm is the jacket with the removable shearling collar?

The removable shearling collar provides significant warmth, making the jacket suitable for cooler weather. When attached, it insulates the neck area effectively, while the quilted inner vest adds an extra layer of warmth. It’s ideal for autumn and mild winter conditions.

Can the elasticated cuffs and waistband be adjusted for a better fit?

The elasticated cuffs and waistband are designed to provide a snug, comfortable fit without additional adjustments. They stretch slightly to accommodate movement while maintaining the jacket’s shape and preventing cold air from entering.

How many pockets does the jacket have and are they secure?

The jacket features multiple pockets: two lower flap pockets with press studs, two side pockets, two inner press-stud pockets, and two additional zippered pockets in the lining. The flap and press-stud closures ensure contents are secure, while the zipped pockets offer extra protection.

Is the quilted inner vest necessary for warmth or can it be worn separately?

The quilted inner vest is removable and adds warmth when worn under the jacket. It can also be worn separately as a sleeveless gilet, providing versatility for layering in varying temperatures.

How should the jacket be cleaned and maintained?

This jacket should only be cleaned by a professional leather specialist to preserve the leather and shearling. Avoid home washing or dry-cleaning, as improper care can damage the materials. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its condition.

What is the significance of the LEATHER WORKING GROUP certification?

The LEATHER WORKING GROUP certification ensures that the leather used is sourced responsibly, with a focus on environmental sustainability and ethical practices. It guarantees that the tanning process meets strict environmental and social standards.
