We can now offer the first ever, 100% accurate, military spec reproduction of the 37J1 Flight Jacket.(excerpt from the specification. We have the full set of documents) The official specifications not only give vital details like the pocket size, but also material types to use, and construction methods that are required to meet the government standards. Without the specifications you cannot know some of these details or make a jacket that is 100% accurate. Our 37J1 meets the same military standards of the original 1927 flight jackets.

The original Capeskin for both air services was obtained in South Africa in the 1920’s – 30’s. In addition to our hides being from the same region as the original jackets, they are also drum dyed and chrome tanned like the originals. This provides a tougher surface and deep color hues that change in different light conditions. This can be seen in the photos with the changes of color from photo to photo.

USN 37J1 Jacket Known as the first USN Bomber Jacket, the 37J1 jacket was contracted in 1927 by the department of the Navy. A standardized lightweight flight jacket was needed at the time for the growing crew of Airmen in the expanding Naval Aviation Forces. The jacket was developed in the mid 1920’s and then issued in 1927. A green Bedford corded cloth version was developed and issued as well later on in the mid 1930’s. The distinctive short snap knit collar and high set pockets of the 37J1 were made famous by the daring USN pilots who wore them while perfecting the first carrier operations. They were among the first of the American test pilots. The jackets were featured in movies about the first USN squadrons in the 1930’s which help create the iconic vision of the leather clad fighter pilot in the minds of the American people. This icon was reinforced world wide when WWII brought more pilots and new leather flight jacket types into service. The First Top Guns: USN & USMC pilots wearing 37J1 jackets in 1930. The 37J1 jacket went out of service in the late 1930’s when the M-422 jacket was developed. A warmer jacket was needed and zippers became reliable enough to replace the button up closure. There are very few original 37J1 jackets surviving today. They are extremely rare but a few have surfaced at auctions and there are some good photos of the details. The hide used was Capeskin leather. We have a color photo of the inside of the pocket and the leather protected inside has the original shade of brown. The original 37J1 jackets were a Chocolate color. Inside pocket of an ORIGINAL 37J1 jacket, we can identify the color as Chocolate Brown Our Chocolate Capeskin made to our specifications to match the hide on the original 37J1 jackets. Our 37J1 jacket is finished off with 100% 1920’s period correct parts and accessories that were chosen after careful study of photos of the original jackets.
