PIKE BROTHERS 1938 USN 37J1 JACKET

The 37-J-1 flight jacket, introduced in the pre-World War II era, was a lightweight jacket designed for the U.S. Navy. Made from sturdy cotton twill jungle cloth, it offered pilots essential protection and flexibility during flight. Unlike its leather counterparts, the 37-J-1 was lighter and more breathable, making it ideal for warmer climates and non-combat missions. Originals are very very rare and every flight jacket is a collector's dream.

Pike Brothers' verison has all the features as the legendary original and is a must for the serious vintage aficionado or vintage flight jacket collector.

The following features characterize the 1938 USN 37-J-1 flight jacket:

- Outer: 100% cotton densley woven jungle cloth
- Lining: 100% cotton
- Two outer pockets, one inner pocket
- Vintage talon zipper
