An aviator’s jacket that marries the softness of lambskin with the warmth of vegan fur

The Nentley Paolo is a modern take on the classic aviator jacket, crafted from supple lambskin leather—one of the lightest and most delicate leathers in the trade. Daytona has chosen this material for its natural drape and buttery texture, which moulds effortlessly to the body without sacrificing durability. The collar is lined with a dense vegan fur, offering warmth without weight, making it a versatile piece for layering across seasons. Black remains the most adaptable shade, ensuring it pairs seamlessly with everything from tailored trousers to distressed denim.

Designed for movement, built for longevity

This jacket follows a regular cut, meaning it’s neither oversized nor slim-fitting—ideal for those who prefer a balanced silhouette. The lambskin’s natural suppleness allows for ease of movement, while the vegan fur lining adds a layer of insulation without bulk. Unlike heavier leathers, lambskin requires minimal break-in, feeling comfortable from the first wear.

A timeless style with a contemporary conscience

The aviator jacket has its roots in early 20th-century military wear, designed to protect pilots from the harsh conditions of open cockpits. Daytona’s Paolo pays homage to this heritage while updating it for modern sensibilities. The vegan fur lining reflects a growing demand for cruelty-free alternatives, offering the same visual and tactile appeal as traditional fur without the ethical concerns. Whether worn over a sweater in autumn or layered under a coat in winter, this jacket bridges the gap between classic design and contemporary values.

Daytona has spent decades refining its expertise in leather outerwear, drawing inspiration from both vintage workwear and modern minimalism. The brand is known for its meticulous attention to leather quality, often sourcing premium hides like lambskin and full-grain cowhide to create pieces that balance durability with elegance. Based in Europe but manufacturing globally, Daytona blends traditional quality manufacturing with contemporary design, ensuring each jacket tells a story—whether it’s a nod to aviation history or a fresh take on urban style.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of leather is used and how does it feel to the touch?

This jacket is made from lambskin, known for being the softest type of leather. It is fine, lightweight, and smooth, offering a delicate and supple feel against the skin.

Is the faux fur lining warm enough for winter?

The faux fur lining provides a layer of insulation, making it suitable for cooler weather. However, its warmth depends on the climate—it works well in mild to moderately cold conditions but may not be sufficient for extreme winter temperatures.

How should I choose the right size for a regular fit?

For a regular fit, select your usual size. This cut is designed to offer a comfortable, standard silhouette without being overly snug or loose.

What kind of maintenance does the leather require?

Before first use, apply a waterproofing treatment to protect the leather. Regularly nourish it with a neutral, delicate leather cream to maintain its softness and prevent drying. Always test care products on a hidden area first.

Can this jacket be worn in rainy conditions?

While the leather is treated for some resistance, it is not fully waterproof. Light rain should not damage it if properly maintained, but prolonged exposure to moisture should be avoided to preserve the leather’s quality.

How does the leather age over time?

Lambskin develops a natural patina with wear, gradually softening and gaining character. Its fine grain may show slight creases, which enhance its vintage appeal without compromising durability.
