An aviator jacket that marries vintage charm with modern versatility

The TEXACO FENDER Brown by Redskins isn’t just another leather jacket—it’s a nod to the golden age of aviation, reimagined for today’s urban explorer. Crafted from supple yet durable cowhide, this piece balances ruggedness with a refined touch, making it as suited to a city commute as it is to a weekend adventure. The removable fur-lined collar (synthetic or real, depending on the variant) and zip-out quilted inner gilet offer adaptability for shifting temperatures, while the elasticated waist and cuffs ensure a snug, comfortable fit. With a weight of 2 kg, it’s substantial enough to feel protective without sacrificing mobility—a true heir to the aviator legacy.

A design rooted in history, built for the present

Inspired by the flight jackets of the 1930s and 40s, the TEXACO FENDER channels the utilitarian spirit of early pilots while incorporating contemporary details. The central zip closure, snap-button side pockets, and zippered sleeve pocket are all functional nods to its heritage, while the detachable Texaco patch on the chest adds a touch of retro branding. The polyester lining and padding provide warmth without bulk, making it a reliable choice for winter layers. Whether you’re pairing it with a chunky knit or a simple tee, this jacket effortlessly bridges the gap between classic and modern.

Redskins has been a staple in leather outerwear since the 1980s, blending quality manufacturing with a rebellious spirit. Known for their meticulous attention to detail and high-quality materials, the brand draws inspiration from motorcycle culture, aviation history, and urban style. Each piece is designed to age gracefully, developing a unique patina that tells the story of its wearer. The TEXACO FENDER is a prime example of Redskins’ ability to reinterpret timeless designs for contemporary wardrobes.
