Due to the high density of the fabrics used for military jackets, the changes in appearance caused by abrasion of wearing over time is more appealing. This effect is particularly apparent in jungle cloth, which ages in a manner similar to leather. In addition, the thicker fabric with the reverse side brushed has excellent wind resistance, making it more ideal as a material for military garments. In the same way that the appearance of the Army Air Corps' A-2 leather flight jacket changes, this jacket allows you to fully enjoy the aging texture of the jungle cloth.

AVIATION ASSOCIATES

From the 1920s through the 1940s , various types of flight jackets were commercially available at the market featuring the elements of Army spec. When examining the old photos during the World War, we were able to spot a few pilots with a non-Army issued jacket Officially, soldiers were not allowed to wear non-Army issued jackets, but the regulation became loose during the actual war time. The difference between Army issued and non-Army issued can mainly be seen on the design and material usage, but the similar color was used in accordance with the original Army-issued products to meet military regulations. And also the design of non-Army products were obviously based on Army issued items, many non- Army jackets were somewhat modified with a bit of original twist, providing really classical look to the eyes. Aviation Associates was the legendary line that commercially manufactured by the previous contractor Buzz Rickson MFG. We would sincerely want you to feel the spirit of our product through these jackets.
