EASTMAN LEATHER CLOTHING
The Air Comfort
1940’s-1950’s Commercial Flying Jacket
Unlike most of Eastman’s other styles, this is not a true military-spec. jacket, but we’re sure it would have been if the flyboys of WWII had ever dreamed such a design could have been adopted.
In the post-war years of the late 1940’s and early 1950’s American clothing manufacturers were not slow to take advantage of the glamorous flyboy image. The war was won, and images of the returning heroes of the armed forces gave the nation a feeling of pride and optimism. The U. S. Army Air Corps pilot, clad in his leather A-2 flying jacket, projected the quintessential image of the romanticized American war hero, and so the fashion industry rose to the occasion by emulating this jacket style that every man, young or old, would be proud to wear. Unlike the WWII issue A-2 jacket that is still, of course, an unbeatable classic even in it’s simple design, these new commercial offerings were designed with certain additional features and “improvements.” These improved details included such features as a fur collar, warmer lining, inside pockets (a feature the original WWII design desperately needed), and even outside hand-warmer pockets were incorporated to various degrees into these new, hybrid flying jackets. This type of garment very quickly and aptly became generically referred to as a “Bomber Jacket”, a term which most people are familiar with to this very day. Big manufacturer names from the 1940s and 1950s come to mind when reminiscing about these vintage “Bomber Jackets,” such as: Sears & Roebuck, Montgomery Ward, The Goodgal Clothing Co., and even some of the original wartime companies that officially contracted to make flying jackets for the Army Air Force went on to make their own commercial versions of the “Bomber Jacket.”
Today, the Eastman offering of this classic genre is “The Air Comfort.” They have spared no expense in the manufacture of this superb garment, incorporating many of the best features that can be found on the original commercial examples from the good old days of those golden postwar years. “The Air Comfort” captures that classic post-war “Bomber Jacket” appearance which is so appealing to all those who appreciate a good-looking vintage leather jacket. Hang one of these in your wardrobe and you wont be sorry you did! Take note of these authentic and practical features:
