Leather weather is finally here and we have the perfect jacket for you!
Cockpit USA’s USS Forrestal Carrier Pilot's Vietnam Flight Jacket Z21E002I is crafted from hand treated vintage goatskin. This jacket features authentic replicas of a USS Forrestal Vietnam fighter pilot’s jacket patches. Featured below on Cockpit USA customer Ricardo Massa, who flew in from Italy to pick up his collector's USS Forrestal jacket at the Cockpit USA headquarters.
The USS Forrestal Carrier Pilot's Flight Jacket also features a beautiful hand silk screen printed U.S.S Forrestal aircraft carrier on the back and the famed Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club patch signifying service off the coast of North Vietnam. The fur collar has been removed from this jacket for warmer weather comfort.
All in all, a must-have historical jacket! If you would like this jacket without patches, please see our original Naval Aviator Jacket style.
