About This Jacket:

This B-6 jacket is a very rare example, due to its size and model number. There evidently weren't many B-6s made, and few exist today, especially in large sizes. The jacket has a 1943 contract, and Aero Leather made many of these. The sheepskin was spliced together in many places, which was common with jackets made during the war. The sheepskin is a dark color, also common with WWII jackets, and it has russet trim, which contrasts nicely in tone.
