A flight jacket by “Top Hook”

The TGV 3 draws on the design codes of the G-1 flight jacket in a brown version adorned with embroidered patches. Its fitted silhouette and removable genuine sheepskin collar give the piece the look of a flight jacket, while the patches immediately establish its aviation identity.

Goat leather and embroidered details

The goat leather has a vintage appearance: its nuanced surface enhances the lived-in character of the brown shade. The patches are embroidered and then sewn onto the jacket rather than printed; they thus become a visible part of its construction. A removable badge on the chest can be personalized, a nod to the name tags associated with the world of pilots.

The genuine sheepskin collar can be removed to visually lighten the upper part of the jacket and change its look. With the collar in place, it highlights its flight-jacket inspiration; without it, the silhouette appears more understated. The ribbed-knit cuffs and hem streamline the silhouette and define the waist, in the spirit of flight jackets.

The spirit of the “Top Hook”

The model’s name refers to the “Top Hook”, a title awarded to the pilot with the best landing performance within their squadron. The jacket conveys this reference through an aviation-inspired wardrobe: brown leather, patches and a removable collar, in a contemporary interpretation of the G-1.

The Top Gun brand was founded in Queens, New York, in 1996, around flight jackets inspired by the heritage of American aviation. Its universe later expanded to clothing and accessories marked by the codes of military aviation.
