Excellent quality and perfect service
"As an aviation lover, I have always wanted a genuine flight jacket and found it here. You wont come any closer to the original jacket than with this one! Quality and craftmanship are exceptional and fully justify the price tag. Having visited NY from Germany, a visit to the showroom was a must. The shopping experience met the high standards of the jacket: on site, Stephanie took all the time and her expertise to find the best possible match. Thanks again for this wonderful experience! Test fitting is however recommended for this iconic jacket. My pick fits like a glove."

Outstanding vintage repro.
"My second 100 missions jacket separated by several years sizes 38 and 40. One fits like a glove with a T shirt, the other will take a thin sweater or button down shirt-snug but not uncomfortable. Only a collector could tell the obscure differences between this design and the original 1940’s G1/M442s. They are authentic in every respect. Snug military fit. Both jackets appear aged but are new and will continue to age and form around your shape over time. The leather grain, color and mouton collars differ but all of it in keeping with a jacket as individual as its wearer. Beautiful Jackets and I’m constantly stopped and asked if thy belonged to my retired USN Aircrew dad (RIP). Size 38-5 years old is below the size 40 just received."

Exceptional Experience and an Outstanding Jacket
"âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸ Exceptional Experience and an Outstanding Jacket I had the pleasure of visiting the Cockpit USA showroom in New York City on April 23, 2025, and the entire experience was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warmth and professionalism. What truly made my visit special, however, was the incredible service provided by Stephanie. Stephanie was not only knowledgeable and highly professional, but also genuinely kind and attentive. She took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for, guided me through the various options with clarity and patience, and made the whole process feel personal and enjoyable. Her deep knowledge of the products and her passion for the brand were immediately evident. She ensured I found the perfect jacket and made me feel confident in my choice every step of the way. The jacket itself is a masterpiece of craftsmanship—the quality of the leather, the fit, and the attention to detail all speak volumes about Cockpit USA’s dedication to excellence. You can tell this is a brand that takes pride in its heritage and its work. Wearing the jacket is an experience in itself. But what truly sets Cockpit USA apart is not just the product, but the people behind it. Stephanie turned what could have been a simple purchase into a memorable and gratifying experience. It’s rare to find such a high level of care and professionalism in retail today, and I left the showroom feeling not only satisfied with my purchase, but truly valued as a customer. Highly recommended—not just for the incredible jackets, but for the impeccable service. Grazie di cuore, Stefano Zarrilli"

Gorgeous Flight Jacket
"Amazingly well made. Fit is very close so you should decide whether you want to wear with just a shirt or layer it. I would suggest just a shirt and so choose your suit size and add 2, ie. 42 suit size then get a 44 for nice trim fit. Bear in mind, you can carry a little extra weight but a giant belly will not work with this one!"

My favorite jacket!
"My favorite jacket! I own a couple of Eastman’s A-2 and another Cockpit USA G-1. What makes the difference with this jacket is how comfortable it is and the perfect vintage look; most people think it is an original worn-out G-1. Like most of these jackets you may want to go a size up, I am 6”3 215 pounds and slim, size 38."

Beste Lederjacken ever
"Wie immer bei Cockpit USA stimmen Qualität und Service!"

Very comfortable jacket, great G1
"I am 6’ 1 (188 cm), 182/185 lb (82/84 kg), chest 42.5 inch and 33 inch waist and size 44 suits perfectly. Comfortable for everyday use, both for office and casual days. The goatskin is very soft and smells good. I prefer this version than the one with patches, because it's less showy. It's a slim fit jacket as described, I like to wear it with a T-Shirt or a Shirt, but you have room enough to use it comfortably."
