FLAVORMen's Leather Flight Bomber Jacket Air Force Aviator

I purchased XL. I am 6', 215 lb, big chested, a bit paunchy, and usually wear XL, sometimes L. This fit just like XL of other jackets in my closet, so no surprises, though I might have opted for L if I had two sizes in front of me. This XL is true and does not run small or short. But I am very pleased. It is pig leather, but seems as thick and durable as cowhide. It is made in China, if that is an issue, but there is no overwhelming smell as some have described, just the normal new leather scent which is pleasing. There is a very modest sheen and color is mostly milk chocolate with a darker spackling, giving it an even but worn appearance, just as depicted in photos, and I love that. It's true that the sleeve pocket has a zipper for appearance only, that adds to a nostalgic look. The cuffs and waist band, stitching, pockets and everything about this jacket is better than I'd expected. It is also warmer than expected. I only received this an hour ago but took a walk in near freezing temp, felt the give and sway, then inspected details, and I have been so pleased that I could not wait longer to review this Flavor jacket. This is a safe bet.

This jacket is gorgeous. Size fit perfectly, it's comfortable, smells great.

Beautiful jacket. Distressed leather. Authentic looking bomber flight jacket. With the insulation warm enough for spring and fall. I am 6‘3“ and 170 pounds no paunch. Size large fits me perfectly. Very pleased with this purchase.

4 stars because of 2 reasons. 1the jacket came unbuttered and not waterproofed, had to purchase leather butter wax for it, 2 the jacket pockets are a little awkward, but all said and done, wearable, quality look, feels nice. Price was good.

Exactly the jacket I was looking for, and hoped it would be. It is nicer than I expected; way surpassed my expectations.This was a scary purchase... there were no reviews yet, the images make the collar almost look too wide, and I really would like a removable fur color to use sometimes, as stated in the features list, but there is no image to see how it looks... that concerned me. Will a size large really be true to American sizes. The "Free Returns" gave me just enough comfort to go ahead and pull the trigger... wow... so happy that I did... Definitely a Keeper!If you like the collar as wide as shown you can have that, but the collar will also fold down to about half that width and stay put; I love the collar... it acts exactly like I want; stiff enough to stay right where I put it, to include the collar-back sticking up to keep the back of my neck warm. The way the button-on fake fur collar fastens onto the leather collar is perfect; I’ve never seen one fit this precisely and once it’s on, you wouldn’t know that it’s not the permanent collar. I can’t decide which looks better... fur, no fur, fur, no fur.... what to do. I have to say that the fur collar is not a quick-fix like one that goes on and off with snaps, but once it’s on it is a much more custom looking fit.The jacket couldn’t be more spot-on to what a size Large should fit like (I’m 6', 175 lb, wear 36" pants, medium 15 to 15-1/2 shirts with 34 sleeves, and size 42-44 suit/sport jacket depending on the brand), and I always wear a size Large jacket unless it’s intended to be worn over a bunch of other sweaters or other cloths to layer to stay warm (i.e. a big ol' authentic crew bomber jacket), then I go XL, but I’ll always wear this jacket underneath to make sure it’s protected (it’s that gorgeous). The size Large is a true American size Large.Pig skin can be too stiff, but it can also be too thin and flimsy. The skins can also vary from jacket to jacket within the same bunch, but I am happy to report that the jacket i received is just right... soooo soft and supple; it’s a lil' on the suede side as opposed to a smooth leather finish, but I’m still waffling between calling it suede or just a nice fancy smooth leather finish. Either way, I realllly like it. It is definitely the real deal though; this is pigskin with that really nice new leather smell.All the pockets are real, and sized and work correctly, except for the fake zipper pocket on the sleeve... it’s just a zipper; the zipper functions, but there’s no pocket... the pocket is only accessible from the top. Bummer I guess, but I no longer smoke, so I no longer have a need for a sleeve pocket; the pen/pencil slots on top of that sleeve pocket work fine though. The left inside pocket zips with a nylon zipper. I thought it odd at first and worried it’d scratch my phone if I put it there, but now I like it even better with the zipper. With the nylon, it does not scratch, and the thoughtful way it is sewn-in makes it so it doesn’t touch the phone as it slips in and out anyway. So using the zipper makes it impossible for my phone to accidentally fall out, plus the high quality of the zipper makes it function very smoothly so taking my phone out is just as easy as with no zipper. So, the zipper was a good idea, and I appreciate it being there as an extra safety feature for my phone.Looking the jacket over for loose threads and what-not reveals none (someone has already detailed the usual snags and loose threads), but I do notice the way the stitching is done and lil' details like how the zipper fits into it's lil' grove that appears custom-made just for it to sit in, the zippers, buttons, snaps, lining, even the thread all seem a-cut-above.The quality of workmanship is evident all over this jacket, and kudos deserve to be passed along to the seamstresses and cutters who produced this high-quality piece of clothing. I am extremely satisfied with my purchase.

I will try to be as honest as possible because I depend on other people's reviews and feel I want to help the best I can: I love this Jacket so much I bought a second one the next time it went on special around Christmas. Love the Leather- Love the Smell of Leather. Love the Fit. Love the cut and design. Love the warmth it gives. It's lined inside so it's not leather touching your body and clothes which adds to the comfort. I've had the first one for 3 years and worn on semi-regular basis and not showing any signs of wear. Best part is this style jacket doesn't look badly even when it does start wearing out. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Good Luck.

Took a bit of a fling on this jacket during Black Friday sales. Read all the reviews and decided to go for it. I am female, 5’7” and about 140 lbs. I purchased the medium in dark brown. That color was not available in a small, so did not debate sizing. The medium is plenty big, might have been able to wear the small, much room for a sweater underneath. Length is below my waist, kinda looks like I am wearing my dad’s jacket - that is OK with me. Jacket is compfy and soft, stitching is well done and construction is excellent. The big surprise is how warm it is for a leather jacket, was not expecting so much insulation. Like the optional fur collar, I had to cut the buttonholes that hold the fur bigger as the buttons were too large to go through them. Contrary to some of the reviews, there was totally no odor to the leather. Well worth the price. Happy camper!

I bought that jacket for my husband. It looks good, but the smell is horrible. I’m debating on waiting to see if the smell goes away, or just returning it.
