Aviator-Inspired Jackets

HUMAN MADE Patch Coats Pay Homage to Pilots

Vintage military clothing is slowly creeping back on to the scene, and HUMAN MADE has released an aviation-inspired jacket that is vintage American at its best. With an array of hand-crafted patches sewn to the jacket, this item is a must have for that chic military look.

HUMAN MADE is a Japanese clothing brand established by Nigo, the prodigy behind the A Bathing Ape and Billionaire Boys Club lines. His latest venture aims at reestablishing vintage American menswear by taking inspiration from aviator style features. The HUMAN MADE patch jacket includes detailed embroideries covering the coat. The sleek design and neutral colorway gives the jacket a modern look, while still paying homage to classic fashion of the past.

In stores now and available online, this latest release from HUMAN MADE will have you looking vintage fresh while maintaining your status as a general within your clique.
