The mens aviator jacket, as we know it today, has its roots in the early 20th century, specifically during World War I and World War II. Back then, aviation was a dangerous profession, and pilots needed specialized gear to withstand the harsh conditions of high altitudes.

The first iteration of the aviator jacket was known as the “bomber jacket”. During World War I, pilots flew open-cockpit planes, meaning they were exposed to wind, cold temperatures, and the occasional rain. To provide warmth and protection, the military designed jackets made of durable leather with thick shearling or wool lining. These jackets were known for their snug fit and functional design, featuring ribbed cuffs and waistbands to help keep warmth inside.
