The Schott NYC LC1259 Black Brown is not just a shearling jacket—it’s a piece of aviation history reimagined for the modern wardrobe. Inspired by the B-3 jackets worn by US Air Force crews during the Second World War, this model was designed to withstand the freezing temperatures of high-altitude bombing missions. The result? A jacket that combines rugged durability with exceptional warmth, crafted from double-faced sheepskin (black exterior, brown interior) for both insulation and style. Every detail, from the leather-bound seams to the heavy-duty hardware, reflects its military heritage, while the regular fit ensures everyday comfort. This is a jacket built for winter, but its vintage appeal transcends seasons.
The LC1259’s standout feature is its 100% double-faced sheepskin, certified by the Leather Working Group (LWG) for quality and sustainability. The exterior black leather develops a rich patina over time, while the plush brown shearling lining provides unmatched insulation—perfect for braving the cold. Practical details like the adjustable waist straps, snap-button collar, and two hand-warmer pockets pay homage to its bomber roots, while the reinforced leather seams ensure longevity. Whether you’re navigating city streets or embracing the great outdoors, this jacket delivers both function and timeless style.
Schott NYC is a name synonymous with American outerwear heritage. Founded in 1928 by brothers Irving and Jack Schott, the brand invented the first leather motorcycle jacket in 1928—the iconic Perfecto—and has since dressed everyone from aviators to rock stars. Known for its uncompromising quality manufacturing and military-inspired designs, Schott blends rugged durability with timeless style. The LC1259 Black Brown is a testament to this legacy, marrying wartime functionality with modern-day versatility.
