Rust velvet, combining texture with visual warmth

The LCYALES25 stands out with its deep rust-colored suede goat leather. Its matte, napped surface catches the light differently from smooth leather: the color appears lively, with slight variations depending on the direction of the nap. This texture gives the flight jacket presence without relying on heavy paneling or ornate details.

The flight jacket cut is based on a short silhouette with rib-knit finishes at the waist and cuffs. These bands cinch the garment and create a clean outline, while the removable shearling collar highlights its aviation-inspired character. Worn without the collar, the jacket looks more understated and is easier to pair with an urban outfit.

A removable collar to change the silhouette

The genuine sheepskin collar is the model’s defining feature. It frames the neck with a soft, light-colored volume that contrasts with the rust leather. Removable, it allows you to change the character of the jacket: with it, the look is more evocative of a flight jacket; without it, the collar becomes more discreet and the silhouette feels lighter.

The straight zip fastening keeps the front simple and clean. Two zipped side pockets hold essentials securely, while two inside pockets provide additional storage. The nylon lining and polyester padding complete the interior without turning this piece into a heavily insulated jacket.

Schott, a New York history of leather clothing

Schott’s history began in 1913 in Manhattan’s Lower East Side, where brothers Irving and Jack Schott founded their company and initially made rainwear. The brand later turned to leather and outerwear. In 1928, Irving Schott designed a motorcycle jacket with an asymmetrical fastening, a model that became one of the brand’s major benchmarks. The LCYALES25 explores another side of this wardrobe: flight jackets, with a shearling collar and a construction cinched by rib-knit bands.
