A timeless aviator jacket that carries the legacy of wartime heroes.

The Schott 257S Brown Gold is not just a jacket—it’s a piece of history. Inspired by the B-3 bomber jackets worn by aircrews during the Second World War, this model captures the rugged elegance of military aviation while delivering modern comfort. Crafted from heavyweight sheepskin, it combines a rich, grainy nappa leather exterior with a plush shearling lining, offering warmth and durability in equal measure. The attention to detail is evident in every stitch, from the leather-welted seams to the robust brass hardware, making it a statement piece for those who appreciate quality manufacturing.

Built for the elements, designed for style.

This jacket is engineered for cold-weather wear, with a thick shearling lining that provides exceptional insulation. The regular fit ensures a comfortable, relaxed silhouette, while adjustable straps at the waist and collar allow for a personalised fit. Whether you’re braving winter winds or adding a touch of vintage charm to an urban outfit, the 257S Brown Gold adapts effortlessly. Its versatility makes it a go-to for casual outings, layered over a simple tee and jeans, or dressed up with tailored trousers and boots.

More than a jacket—a heritage piece.

Schott’s commitment to quality shines through in this model, which is entirely made in the USA. The chrome-tanned sheepskin develops a beautiful patina over time, ensuring that your jacket ages gracefully and becomes uniquely yours. With its blend of historical inspiration and contemporary design, the 257S Brown Gold is a wardrobe investment that transcends trends.
