AIR VENTILATED SUIT

Introducing our Air Ventilated High Altitude Flying Suit, a genuine vintage marvel meticulously designed for high altitude conditions. Originally tailored for RAF pilots, these suits also found utility in Concorde test flights, a testament to their reliability and effectiveness.

Each suit features a network of carefully positioned pipes, strategically distributing hot or cold air to crucial points on the pilot's body. This intricate ventilation system ensures optimal comfort and functionality, even in the most extreme altitudes.

Beyond their aviation heritage, these suits have left an indelible mark on popular culture. Worn by iconic figures such as David Bowie and Kate Bush in music videos, and featured in cinematic classics like the original Alien movie, they have become symbols of retro-futuristic style and innovation.

Today, we preserve these historical artifacts as part of our archive, a tribute to their contribution to aviation history and pop culture. While they remain cherished pieces within our collection, they are also available for loan, offering enthusiasts and institutions the opportunity to experience firsthand the legacy of high altitude flight.
