Inspired by early 40s type B-3 Flight jackets from the Second World War and revisited with a unique Italian touch, the “Aviatore” B-3 Shearling Jacket represents an authentic garment made of Italian Shearling Sheepskin reinforced with leather trimmings in vegetable tanned Lambskin from Tuscany (Italy).
Our Italian Merino Shearling Sheepskin, tanned in a small Tannery in Tuscany (Italy) is first grade Sheepskin, one of the softest and durable leather in the world. It ages beautifully, developing fantastic fades, creases and patina. The Merino Shearling Sheepskin is incredibly durable and long-lasting. The natural fibers of Sheepskin are strong and resilient, making the “Aviatore” Jacket resistant to wear and tear, withstanding many years of hard use. This durability makes the “Aviatore” a worthwhile investment that will last for a Lifetime.
The Shearling Sheepskin is the perfect natural insulator for cold weather. The soft sheep wool encases your body, ensuring maximum body warmth retention and at the same time wicking away excess moisture when the body generates it.
The bikers who sport the B-3 Jackets on cold winter road trips rely on their rugged and tough exteriors as much as they do on their soft and pliable interiors. The B-3 Jacket is a perfect reflection of their bravery and determination, providing much needed protection and comfort.
The attention to detail makes it a rare and authentic B-3 Jacket Hand Made in Italy.

This is without a doubt a superior product both in terms of materials (leather is the softest ever) and fit and finish.
The purchasing process was smooth, kudos to Marco for the quick response and optimum size suggestions.
Jacket is absolutely worth the money and looks like it will outlast its lucky owner.

je dois dire que j’ai longtemps cherché ,vu beaucoup de bombardiers en peau lainée, avant de voir “l’aviatore” unique , avec tout un tas de petits détails de finitions qui lui confèrent un vrai supplément d’âme. mais il faut aussi et surtout le toucher et sentir cette odeur que les amateurs de belles matières saurons apprécier.; les renseignements, des très sympathiques daniel et marco, m’ont été précieux pour trouver la taille idéale; les mesures du guide sont précises, mon diamètre de tour de poitrine fait 102 cm et largeur épaules 43,5 cm; j’hésitais le M et le L j’ai finalement choisi la plus petite et c’est parfait car je souhaite porter la veste ajustée avec dessous seulement un vêtement très fin ; pour le porter un peu ample avec un gros pull j’aurais peut-être choisi la taille au-dessus. j’ai rêvé d’un shearling et shangri-la héritage me la proposé.

If Bruce Wayne wore a shearling, this would be the one. As beautiful as it looks on the photos listed, it is much more luxurious in person. The shearling collar and interior is a very nice grey color. This color is very difficult to achieve if you’ve shopped around looking at other grey shearlings. On lesser jackets grey shearling can often look purple. Not this one. This grey seems to glow even. The black sheepskin outer is a nice matte with a touch of frost to the surface highlights. As always with Shangri-La, this jacket does a great job of creating a nice form fitting silhouette on a tried and true design. The materials are delicate yet heavy duty. If you’re eyeing high end shearling jackets this winter I highly recommend this edgy yet classic piece.
