1940'S BRITISH CORDUROY FLIGHT JACKET (CD0004)
Design Details
-The basic framework is derived from the British flight jacket. Compared to more common military-style jackets like the A2, the style and details are somewhat different, with a greater focus on tailoring proportions and emphasizing the beauty of the body's lines. The fabric uses corduroy and cavalry twill original cotton material, balancing the overly rugged style of military jackets with a touch of vintage elegance.
-This jacket features thick corduroy fabric, weighing 385 grams, with a coarse eight-wale corduroy pattern. The fabric is rich and plush with excellent drape, and it has a silky, velvety texture that can create a luxurious sheen in different lighting conditions. What's even more important is that the corduroy fibers are tightly packed and durable, so it won't easily pill during regular wear or even after machine washing. Corduroy is a fabric that can age gracefully, and while it may not develop strong fading like raw denim, the uniformity of the fibers and their shine will change over time, reflecting the wearer's unique experiences.
-This short, loose-fitting jacket with a dropped shoulder is very forgiving for various body types. Its high-waisted design with a shorter length creates the illusion of longer legs. The pleating at the hem and cuffs, along with the roomy upper arm and snug lower arm, ensures comfort and a natural fit. There's ample space around the shoulders and chest, while the bottom hem is tapered for a snug fit.
