FAQs

Is this jacket windproof?

Yes, the dense sheepskin lining combined with the premium nappa leather outer shell offers excellent protection against wind chill.

Can I wear this in the rain?

While the leather is durable, it is not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain; if it gets wet, air dry it slowly in a cool, shaded area.

How do I choose the right size?

The jacket is designed for a traditional fit. If you plan to wear thick layers underneath, ensure you select your standard size, keeping in mind the thickness of the internal shearling.

Does the sheepskin shed?

It is normal for minor loose fibers to appear during the initial break-in period, but high-quality sheepskin should not shed significantly.

What is the difference between this and a standard leather jacket?

Unlike standard leather jackets, the B3 is a true winter garment lined with dense sheepskin, making it significantly warmer and heavier than fashion-weight leather jackets.

Troubleshooting

The zipper feels stiff or sticks during use

Apply a small amount of clear beeswax or a graphite pencil lead to the zipper teeth to help the slider move smoothly.

The leather appears dry or dull

Consult a professional leather cleaner regarding the application of a high-quality leather conditioner suitable for nappa finish.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent thermal insulation for freezing temperatures
  • High-quality, durable construction with genuine sheepskin
  • Classic, timeless aviation-inspired design
  • Soft nappa leather finish provides a premium feel
  • Reliable, heavy-duty YKK zipper hardware

Cons

  • Not suitable for warm or mild weather
  • The heavy materials add significant weight to the garment
  • Limited ventilation due to the thick sheepskin lining
  • Requires professional leather care for maintenance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  • Break-in Period: Like all premium sheepskin, the leather may feel stiff initially. It will soften and conform to your body shape with regular wear.
  • Storage: Always hang the jacket on a broad, padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders. Avoid storing it in plastic bags, as the material needs to breathe to prevent moisture buildup.
  • Cleaning: Do not wash this jacket at home. Due to the delicate nature of the sheepskin and nappa leather, it must be cleaned by a professional leather specialist who understands the requirements of shearling garments.
  • Water Exposure: If the jacket gets caught in a downpour, shake off excess water and allow it to dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, which can crack the leather.
