Nothing more American than a flight jacket!

This example is one of the most iconic flight jackets ever designed; the Type B-15 Intermediate Flying Jacket.

The B-15 jacket was manufactured only for a few months from July to November 1944. Basically, it was designed as an improved version of its predecessor, the Type B-10.

The B-15 was a success among pilots that were able to get one.

Needless to say, these jackets are quite rare to find due to the short time of supply.

This example is in NOS condition, which is amazing considering it is almost 8 decades old. It even has the cutter tag still attached.

Happy 4th of July fellas!

Best,
Jorge
