Same heritage, lighter feel. The Lightweight Irvin keeps everything iconic about the original, authentic sheepskin, heavyweight brass zip, impeccable British craftsmanship, but with a pared-back construction for ease and everyday wear.
This version skips the sleeve zips and waist belt, using a lighter sheepskin that’s ideal for driving, travelling, or simply adding quiet attitude to your wardrobe. Still made in the UK. Still unmistakably Irvin.

Sheepskin
This jacket is hand tailored from specially prepared sheepskins with 15mm wool, which has lighter weight wool and more supple than those used in the making of the traditional Irvin flying jacket. This is a very warm jacket that is superbly comfortable to wear. Sheepskin is a natural product, they do have spots in the fur, some grain marks and the leather can be naturally ribbed with lines.
Colour
Brown sheepskin. Inside colour is "warm honey" (sheepskin is a natural material and some colour variations are to be expected).
Photographic colour/material representation is illustrative. Colour and material can vary slightly.
Pockets
Each jacket has 2 outside and 2 inside pockets.
Seams
All seams are overlock stitched and bound with double stitched soft leather.
Cuffs/Waistband
Rollback cuffs with side zip and a waistband with flap and press stud adjustment to the sides.
Zip
Heavy-duty brass.
Identification/Authentication
This classic British flying jacket is the real thing. Each jacket bears an authentic Irvin, woven label. This unique label is sewn into each jacket as your assurance that the jacket is a genuine Irvin Lightweight Flying Jacket from Aviation Leathercraft.
