The aviator jacket is more than just a coat; it is a representation of fashion, attitude, and even times. First conceived for use by fighter pilots in the viciously cold climates of the First World War, the jacket could not have been more utilitarian in its construction; its practical, no-nonsense appearance would ensure that it would not be long before it was sporting and stylish enough to move from runways to roads. At present, the aviator jacket men remain the most popular item of modern men’s clothing, which combines traditions of the classics and elements of modern trends.

Contrasting with its peculiarity is the shearling collar, tough leather fabric, and a relaxed, slightly oversized cut — the aviator jacket visually aids almost all types of shapes and brings a touch of nonchalance. It can be utilized with some jeans and perhaps boots if you are going for that more casual look, or perhaps even with some tailored trousers and Chelsea boots for that slightly smarter look and it is a brilliantly diverse piece for anyone’s range.

All the big fashion brands including luxury brands and the collection favorites have revived the aviator jacket and are available in different materials such as leather, faux leather, suede, or wool blends.
