The Flight Shirt Jacket by Nigel Cabourn is influenced by the M-421A standard-issue flight jackets from the late 1930s, being worn by both Navy and Marine Corps pilots during WW2. The jacket proved incredibly popular amongst the aircrew serving in the Pacific campaign due to its lightweight nature and ease of wear.
Made in Portugal, this design features a rounded stand collar and diamond self-fabric elbow patches along with two patch pockets finished with corozo button fastening. The Flight Shirt Jacket is made from 100% cotton poplin known for being cool and lightweight.
