An aviator jacket that carries the weight of history—and the thrill of the unknown.
The Z21A109 SHADOW G1 by Cockpit USA isn’t just another leather jacket. It’s a piece of military heritage reimagined for the modern wearer, blending the rugged functionality of the original G-1 flight jackets—worn by US Navy pilots and submariners since the Second World War—with a contemporary edge. This isn’t a costume; it’s a jacket built to last, designed to age beautifully, and crafted to tell a story with every crease and patina.
A jacket born from the silver screen.
Commissioned for the sci-fi horror short film *STALKER – Shadow of The Zone*, inspired by the cult video game, this jacket bridges the gap between military authenticity and cinematic drama. The goatskin leather, hand-aged in the USA, starts with a rich, deep black that softens and develops character over time. The snow-top sheepskin collar—black with white-tipped fur—adds a striking contrast while paying homage to the classic G-1 design. It’s removable, so you can adapt the jacket to your style or the weather, whether you’re braving a crisp autumn evening or stepping into a dimly lit bar.
Built for movement, designed for style.
The slim fit silhouette keeps the jacket sharp and modern, but the bi-swing back ensures you’re never restricted—whether you’re reaching for a handlebar, throwing on a backpack, or simply settling into a café chair. The front features a Mil-Spec oxidised black zip, a nod to the original military hardware, while the perforated "USN" wind flap adds both function and a subtle touch of authenticity. Two flap pockets up front, side-entry handwarmer pockets, and an internal snap pocket keep your essentials secure without bulking up the lines. The rib-knit cuffs and waistband seal out the wind, making this a jacket that’s as practical as it is stylish.
More than a jacket—a legacy in the making.
This isn’t a piece that fades into the background. The goatskin leather, known for its durability and suppleness, will mould to your body and develop a patina unique to you. The twill polyester lining, in a tone-on-tone black pattern, adds a layer of comfort and wind resistance, while the snow-top collar brings a touch of vintage luxury. Whether you’re pairing it with jeans and boots for a casual weekend look or layering it over a hoodie for an urban edge, the SHADOW G1 adapts effortlessly. And while it arrives without the film’s patches, its design speaks for itself—rooted in history, ready for your next adventure.
Cockpit USA isn’t just a brand; it’s a custodian of military and aviation history. Founded in 1975 by Jeff Clyman, a former US Air Force pilot, the brand has spent nearly five decades perfecting the art of the flight jacket. From recreating iconic WWII bomber jackets to collaborating with filmmakers and artists, Cockpit USA blends authenticity with innovation. Every piece is crafted in the USA, using time-honoured techniques and premium materials, ensuring that each jacket isn’t just worn—it’s lived in. Whether you’re a collector, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates quality manufacturing, Cockpit USA delivers more than a garment; it delivers a legacy.

Frequently Asked Questions
This jacket is made from goatskin, a durable yet supple leather known for its natural grain and resistance. The hand-aged finish gives it an immediate vintage look, and with wear, it develops a deeper patina, enhancing its character and uniqueness over time.
Yes, the snow-top sheepskin collar is fully removable. To maintain its softness and appearance, avoid machine washing—spot clean with a damp cloth and use a specialised leather and fur conditioner periodically.
The bi-swing back features pleats and extra fabric at the shoulders and upper back, allowing for greater freedom of movement without pulling or restricting your arms. It’s particularly useful for activities like driving or layering over thicker garments.
The slim fit is designed to follow the body’s contours without being restrictive. If you prefer a closer fit, choose your usual size. For a slightly looser fit, consider sizing up, especially if you plan to layer underneath. Check the size guide for precise measurements.
While the goatskin provides warmth and wind resistance, the jacket is versatile enough for year-round wear. In colder months, the removable fur collar and ribbed cuffs help retain heat, while in milder weather, the breathable leather and twill lining keep it comfortable.
The perforated 'USN' wind flap, located behind the main zip, acts as an additional barrier against drafts. The perforations allow for slight airflow, preventing moisture buildup while maintaining wind resistance.
The oxidised black Mil-Spec zipper is built for durability but benefits from occasional care. Use a dry cloth to remove debris, and apply a zipper lubricant or beeswax to keep it running smoothly. Avoid forcing it if it snags.
Caring for your leather
This product is made of goat leather. Stiffer and more resistant than lamb or sheep, goatskin has the particularity of having a more or less grainy texture.
However, goat leather remains very simple to maintain. A simple waterproofing product and a cleansing milk will be more than enough. You can find these products by clicking here.
For the most rigorous, a bristle brush can be useful to remove certain stains.
In all cases, remember to always test the application of a maintenance product on a non-visible surface of your product. Certain finishes or leather treatments may react differently from one product to another.
