The Cockpit USA B-6 Shearling Bomber was introduced in 1939 for Army Air Force training command pilots — short-sheared sheepskin that provides meaningful insulation without the bulk of the B-3

The shorter shearing also makes the B-6 more compatible with layering than the B-3

SIZE 44 Cockpit USA Mens Horsehide A-2 Leather Flight Jacket - Final Sale Ships Same Day Color:Brown fingerless cut for heat releaseThe Cockpit USA Horsehide A 2 is crafted from genuine russet brown horsehide the same leather issued to USAAF pilots throughout the 1930s and 1940s. Horsehide was the original A 2 specification material: it breaks in slowly, wears hard, and develops a deep, irreplaceable patina that records years of use. Many original WWII horsehide A 2s are still intact today, which speaks directly to the leathers longevity. One piece back panel for nose art.
