“Don Gentile” A-2 Black Horsehide Leather Flight Jacket

 1.395,00

Inspired by 1940s Flight Jackets from WWII and revisited with a unique Italian touch, the “Don Gentile” A-2 Flight Jacket represents an authentic garment made of chrome tanned, drum dyed, full grain Horsehide from Vicenza (Italy).

The Type A-2 flight jacket was originally invented and developed for U.S. Army Air Forces pilots, Navigators and Bombardiers.

The Full Grain Horsehide from Vicenza (Italy) is first grade horsehide with a ton of character and deep richness. It ages beautifully, developing fantastic fades, creases and patina. Thickness is around 1,1mm, making the Don Gentile an outstanding and high-end premium jacket.

Natural leathers like the Vicenza Horsehide have their own distinctive character and slight differences in texture, grain, scratches and color tone are signs of its authenticity.

The attention to detail makes it a rare and authentic Flight Jacket Hand Made in Italy.

Designed for Bikers, Rockers and Gentlemen.

The name “Don Gentile” is a tribute to the Air Force Pilot Dominic Gentile, also known as ‘”The Ace of Aces”. Born as the son of Italian immigrants in the US, Don Gentile was flying the legendary North American P-51 Mustang nicknamed “Shangri-La”.

Any imperfections or variations in color, texture or grain are not to be considered as defects, but distinctive elements of a unique, artisanal quality product.

This is a “1 of 1 piece” exclusive to you.

Every Jacket comes in a high quality 100% organic natural cotton Bag, laced with havana rope and with screen printed logo.

We offer Free Shipping Worldwide.

Possibility of Made-to-Measure.
