The Explorers Club is proud to once again offer The Explorers Club Leather Flight Jacket, available for a limited time to members only. The jackets, made in the USA and individually numbered by hand, are available for the discounted member price of $950 (a value of $1,100), plus free US shipping. Members, please note: this is a pre-order item.

Drawing inspiration from early Explorers Club members like naturalist Roy Chapman Andrews and aviation pioneer Charles Lindbergh, our leather flight jacket is a contemporary take on classic expedition gear.

Made of luxurious brown calfskin leather, the jacket offers both durability and rugged style. Details include two large patch pockets with top entry flap closures, additional side entry pockets and a pleated left chest utility pocket with shell pouch strap and button fastener. The soft removable mouton collar makes this jacket a multi-seasonal staple.

In addition to these unique design features, you’ll find a fully embroidered Explorers Club patch on the upper right sleeve. As you explore the interior you’ll find a quilted cotton twill lining with leather welt pockets and snap closure, as well as a large leather pocket for maps and necessary equipment. Inner chest and back panels feature The Explorers Club “Membership” label and “Famous Firsts” applique, both hand screen printed.

Please note that this is a pre-order. The current order deadline is October 6th, 2023. These jackets are made-to-order and will be shipped in November. As these jackets are made-to-order, we cannot accommodate cancellations or size changes after the order deadline.

Made by Cockpit USA, the official supplier to the USA government since 1980. Made in the USA exclusively for The Explorers Club. Available to members only.
