A timeless aviator jacket that carries the legacy of early flight pilots

The Schott LC5331X in Antique Brown is not just a leather jacket—it’s a piece of history reimagined for the modern wardrobe. Inspired by the iconic A-2 pilot style, this jacket blends rugged durability with vintage charm, crafted from thick, full-grain cowhide leather that develops a rich patina over time. The Antique Brown finish gives it an instantly worn-in look, as if it’s been passed down through generations of adventurers. Designed for those who appreciate quality manufacturing, it balances structure and comfort, with a rigid initial feel that gradually moulds to your body for a personalised fit.

Built for warmth and practicality, without compromising on style

This jacket is engineered for colder months, featuring a detachable synthetic fur collar that fastens with buttons or press studs for adjustable insulation. The central zip is shielded by a snap-button placket, blocking wind and cold air, while ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem seal in warmth. Practicality is key: two flap pockets with press studs, two slanted hand pockets, and three internal pockets (including two zipped) offer ample storage for everyday essentials. The quilted cotton-polyester lining adds an extra layer of comfort, making it as functional as it is stylish.

A jacket that tells a story with every wear

The LC5331X is more than just outerwear—it’s an investment in a piece that will age beautifully. The thick cowhide leather, initially stiff, softens with wear, developing a unique character that reflects your lifestyle. The "Schott" branding on the left chest pocket is a nod to the brand’s heritage, a mark of authenticity in a world of fast fashion. Whether you’re layering it over a roll-neck jumper and jeans for a classic look or pairing it with boots for a rugged edge, this jacket adapts to your style while maintaining its timeless appeal.

Frequently Asked Questions

How thick is the cowhide leather used in this jacket?

The jacket is made from thick cowhide leather, known for its durability and resistance. While the exact thickness isn't specified, it is designed to be rigid initially but softens with wear, developing a unique patina over time.

Is the synthetic fur lining removable?

Yes, the synthetic fur lining on the collar is fully removable. It can be detached using either buttons or press studs, allowing you to adjust the jacket’s warmth and style as needed.

What type of care is required for the leather?

The leather should only be cleaned by a specialist to maintain its quality and finish. Avoid home cleaning methods, as they may damage the material or alter its patina.

Does the jacket have internal pockets?

Yes, there are three internal pockets, including two with zipped closures for secure storage of small items.

Is the jacket suitable for extreme cold weather?

While the jacket is designed for autumn and winter, featuring a quilted lining and ribbed cuffs for insulation, it may not be sufficient for extreme cold. Layering with a thick jumper or scarf is recommended for added warmth.

How does the fit compare to a standard bomber jacket?

Can the jacket be worn in rainy conditions?

The cowhide leather is naturally water-resistant to some extent, but it is not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to rain may damage the leather or affect its patina, so it’s best to avoid heavy rain or use a protective spray.
