Iron Heart‘s 17oz. Duck Type L-2B Flight Jacket in Brown is the last flight jacket you’ll ever need. Seriously, Iron Heart makes stuff that lasts for life, and this heavy weight 17 oz. cotton duck fabric can take everyday wear for years and years, unless you’re breakdancing daily on broken glass. In which case…We can’t help you.
The stripped down L-2B jacket is simple, not overly heavy, and is as functional as you want a casual jacket to be. It’s equipped with a quilted poly-twill liner, welted dual hand warming pockets, a two-way YKK zipper on the front, dual interior ‘gun’ pockets with snap closures, heavy cotton twill pocket bags, heavy tubular knit and elasticated cuffs, hem, and collar, and a branded IH tag.
Of course, flight jackets were never made out of duck canvas, which means Iron Heart’s rugged take sits within a Venn diagram of menswear between militaria and vintage workwear — bait we are well and truly taking.
Available for $475 from Iron Heart.
