The ETO jacket was widely used by the Army Air Force, which then developed the follow-on B-13 (Officer) and B-14 (Enlisted) jackets. This reproduction of the Officer jacket is made in the same dark OD 100% wool elastique. Though intended as flight gear, it was frequently worn as a dress jacket. Note that it has a standard military taper of 6 inches from chest size to waist size (i.e. size 48 jacket has a 42 inch waist).

Question about the product

Description

Frequently Asked Questions

What material is the B-13 AAF Officer Flight Jacket made from?

The reproduction jacket is made from 100% wool elastique. The colour is a dark OD. The material and colour are consistent with the original design.

How should I determine the correct size for this jacket?

The jacket is designed with a standard military taper, meaning the waist size is 6 inches smaller than the chest size. It is generally recommended to order two sizes larger than your usual suit jacket size for a proper fit. For a more relaxed fit, consider going up one size further.

Is the lining present throughout the jacket?

The jacket features a lining that extends throughout the interior. This includes the areas under the epaulets. The lining is described as nice and well-finished.

Are there any common fit issues with the sleeves or epaulets?

The sleeves can run a little long, and tailoring may be required to adjust the length. Some jackets have epaulets that are over-wide or positioned too far forward, which may also require re-tailoring. However, some jackets fit straight out of the package with no issues.
