Shearling bomber with a legacy—warmth, style, and a story to tell.

The LCW1257 in Black is Schott’s take on the legendary B-3 bomber, a jacket born in the cockpits of World War II and reimagined for the modern wardrobe. This isn’t just a winter coat; it’s a piece of aviation history, crafted in double-face sheepskin—full-grain lambskin on the outside, plush shearling wool on the inside. The result? A natural thermostat that keeps you warm in sub-zero temperatures and comfortable up to 15°C when left open. The oversized fur collar, a signature of the original B-3, isn’t just for show; it’s a functional shield against the cold, lined with real fur for unmatched softness and insulation.

A design that balances heritage and contemporary fit.

Schott stays true to the B-3’s iconic silhouette—boxy, robust, and built for layering—while refining it for a slimmer, more tailored look. The waist straps, stamped with the Schott logo, cinch the jacket for a flattering fit, while the oblique front pockets offer practicality without compromising the clean lines. Inside, a wool lining adds an extra layer of comfort, making this jacket as cosy as it is stylish. The black colourway ensures versatility, pairing effortlessly with everything from jeans and boots to a sleek dress and tights.

Built to last, designed to evolve.

Double-face sheepskin isn’t just about warmth; it’s about durability. The full-grain leather exterior resists wear and develops a rich patina over time, while the wool interior retains its softness wash after wash. This is a jacket that will outlast trends, becoming more personal with every wear.

Schott isn’t just a brand; it’s a cornerstone of American outerwear. Founded in 1928 by brothers Irving and Jack Schott, the company invented the first leather motorcycle jacket—the Perfecto—in 1928, a design so iconic it became a symbol of rebellion and style. Over the decades, Schott has dressed everyone from aviators to rockstars, always staying true to its roots: functional, durable, and timeless pieces. The B-3 bomber is no exception—a jacket with a military pedigree that Schott has perfected for the civilian wardrobe.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between sheepskin and shearling?

Sheepskin refers to the hide of a sheep with the wool still attached, while shearling is sheepskin that has been tanned and processed with the wool left on. In this case, the material is full-skin sheepskin with shearling, meaning the wool hasn’t been removed, providing natural insulation.

How does the temperature-regulating effect work?

The natural properties of sheepskin allow it to regulate temperature effectively. The wool fibres trap air, providing insulation in cold conditions (down to -10°C), while the breathable structure prevents overheating in milder temperatures (up to 15°C if left open).

Can the fur collar be removed or adjusted?

The fur collar is fixed and cannot be removed, but it can be folded down or secured with the branded straps for a more tailored look.

How should I care for the sheepskin to maintain its quality?

Avoid exposing it to direct heat or moisture. Use a soft brush to remove dirt and store it in a cool, dry place with good ventilation. For deeper cleaning, consult a professional specialising in leather and sheepskin care.

Is the wool lining itchy or suitable for sensitive skin?

The wool lining is naturally soft and unlikely to irritate sensitive skin. However, those with wool allergies should take precautions or opt for a layer between the lining and their skin.

How does the fit change with different sizes?

The chest measurement adjusts by approximately 1 cm per size up or down from the medium. The waist straps allow for further customisation to achieve a slim, fitted silhouette.

What type of footwear pairs best with this style?

The aviator-inspired design works well with sturdy boots, such as ankle or knee-high styles, to complement its robust yet elegant aesthetic. It also pairs seamlessly with heeled boots for a more polished look.
