From 3sixteen: We sat down with Schott for an afternoon and went through their military archives to find a fit that fell perfectly in line with 3sixteen’s aesthetic and came across one that we were thrilled with. We love vintage A-2's but were looking for a way to slightly modernize the silhouette. The arms are slim, and the body has been slightly lengthened without negatively affecting the higher-waisted look that a flight jacket should have. We chose to exclude the epaulets and added hidden side entries to the front flap pockets for the sake of practicality. Finally, we had Schott add a custom sheepskin collar that really finishes the jacket off; should the wearer want a cleaner look, the shearling collar is fully detachable.
