Avirex - Leather jacket - Vintage

At auction, an authentic American menswear and vintage-collecting icon: the Avirex USA A-2 pilot jacket, dating from the 1980s/90s. This bomber perfectly embodies the glorious tradition of U.S. military aviators’ flight jackets.

Made from exceptionally high-quality, hard-wearing cowhide in a dark brown shade, the jacket features a beautiful, glossy natural grain full of character. The chest is adorned with the iconic original patch featuring three gold stars and the words “AVIREX USA.” Every detail has been carefully considered: front pockets with dual openings, protective flaps and snap buttons, military-inspired epaulettes, a collar that fastens with snaps, and a sturdy central zipper with an Avirex-branded metal slider and original leather pull. The cuffs and waistband are finished with brown rib-knit elastic for a perfect fit.

An iconic piece with timeless appeal, perfect for collectors of vintage military clothing and lovers of heritage style.

- Condition: Excellent overall condition for a vintage garment. The leather is sturdy and well-conditioned, with a beautiful natural patina from age and only minor, normal surface marks from storage that add to its charm (as shown in the close-up photos). The zipper works perfectly, the hardware is intact, and the elastic knit sections are in very good condition.
- Measurements: Shoulders 45 cm, Pit to pit 50 cm, Total length 70 cm.
