Sheepskin Flying Jackets
Sheepskin provides superior thermal insulation against extreme high-altitude cold while remaining lightweight and flexible for pilots. It is for this reason that our flying jackets are almost always lined with sheepskin in the same way that they would have been during WWI and WWII when many planes still had open, unheated cockpits.
Our sheepskin flying jackets are sure to keep you warm, dry and protected, whether you have high flying outdoor plans coming up, or just need a cosy jacket for the chillier months!

Benefits of Sheepskin Flying Jackets
- Superior Thermal Regulation: The natural, dense wool fibers help to trap body heat, making sheepskin flying jackets ideal for freezing temperatures, yet breathable enough for milder conditions.
- Water Resistance: The leather exterior of these sheepskin jackets naturally sheds water, while the lanolin in the sheepskin resists moisture, ensuring you stay dry.
- Exceptional Durability: Sheepskin flying jackets can last decades with proper care.
- Flexibility: Despite its warmth, sheepskin is relatively lightweight, allowing pilots to move freely in confined cockpits.
