Men's RAF Black B3 Sheepskin Shearling Aviator Jacket

Men’s Black B3 Sheepskin Shearling Aviator Jacket

This men’s black B3 shearling jacket combines the insulating construction of classic aviator outerwear with the sharper profile of an asymmetrical biker jacket. Smooth black sheepskin creates a clean, structured exterior, while thick white shearling contrasts around the collar, lapels, cuffs and lower hem.

Crafted from genuine 1.3 mm sheepskin, the jacket uses the leather and wool sides of the hide as one integrated material. This construction provides a naturally soft shearling interior without requiring a separate fur lining.

Asymmetrical Front Closure

A metal zipper runs diagonally from the lower front toward the upper chest, allowing one side of the jacket to overlap the other when fastened. Tonal black leather borders the zipper and keeps the closure visually integrated with the exterior.

The asymmetric design gives the jacket a contemporary motorcycle-inspired appearance while retaining the warmth and substantial character of traditional shearling outerwear.

Oversized Shearling Collar

The neckline is framed by a broad turn-down collar with thick white shearling. Wide notched lapels continue down the upper front, creating a strong contrast against the black leather body.

The open lapel construction displays more of the soft shearling interior and gives the upper body a layered, structured appearance.

Zippered Waist Pockets

Two vertical zippered pockets are positioned at the waist. Each pocket zipper is set inside a reinforced black leather welt with matching perimeter stitching.

The close placement of the pockets follows the jacket’s fitted lines without adding unnecessary bulk to the front.

Adjustable Buckled Waist

A wide black leather belt runs around the lower body and fastens with a dark metal buckle. Matching belt loops hold it securely in place and allow the waist to be adjusted for a closer fit.

White shearling remains exposed beneath the belt, forming a contrasting band around the lower hem.

Straight Shearling Cuffs

The sleeves finish with straight, open cuffs lined in white shearling. The wool can be turned outward slightly to coordinate with the collar and lower hem.

The cuffs have a clean finish without rib-knit panels, zipper openings or snap adjustments.

Panelled Leather Construction

The back uses a horizontal shoulder yoke, a straight center seam and shaped side panels to create a structured silhouette. The curved panels narrow toward the buckled waist, complementing the jacket’s close, waist-length profile.

Set-in sleeves follow the shoulder line and include horizontal seams around the elbows. These articulated sleeve sections add definition to the design while maintaining a smooth leather surface.

Tonal Topstitching

Matching black thread keeps the exterior clean and understated. Predominantly single-row topstitching follows the structural seams and reinforces the jacket without creating a strong decorative contrast.

Visible stitching details include:

• Single-row edge stitching around the shearling collar and lapels

• Tonal stitching along the asymmetrical zipper

• Reinforced perimeter stitching around both zippered pocket welts

• A topstitched horizontal shoulder yoke

• A straight vertical center-back seam

• Shaped side-back panel seams

• Horizontal stitching around the elbow panels

• Reinforced stitching at the waist belt and belt loops

Shearling Care

Wipe light surface dust from the black leather using a clean, soft cloth. Gently brush the exposed white shearling with a soft-bristled brush.

If the jacket becomes wet, blot away excess moisture and allow it to dry naturally at room temperature. Keep it away from radiators, hair dryers and other direct heat sources.

Do not machine wash, tumble dry or soak genuine sheepskin. For deep cleaning, use a specialist experienced with double-faced shearling garments. Store the jacket on a broad hanger to support the shoulders and oversized collar.
