    My father 50 year old cowhide.

    Everything above is correct. Size up for sure and they are old school short. Waist at best. I personally like a jacket at the waist but I'm kinda short and dumpy. Hahaha

    This is interesting info thanks. It's definitely warm has a snug natural fit. My dad said they got rid of the fur collars because guys were catching them on fire with cigarettes. I can image pressurized cabins allowed for lighter jackets came later.

    My mother bought this for my dad in 1970 ish. It is heavy and makes all kinds of noise. Happy I have it.

    I have my dads Old 50 year old cowhide flight jacket to wear that is amazing patina and sqeeks like crazy. Can't wear it at work because it's brown. So I'm waiting for this super distressed black Oakton jacket now. I fly big junky cargo planes and going for the One Flew Over the Coocoo nest look.
