This is a West German military pilot leather jacket manufactured in April 1998. This is an official item that was actually worn.
This jacket is known to have been worn by Erich Hartmann, a top pilot of the Luftwaffe (German Air Force) during the Nazi era, who shot down 352 aircraft.
In recent years, this highly designed jacket has become famous for being used by Martin Margiela in his Artinasar line.
The grey colour is typical of the German military, with knitted ribs at the hem, sleeves and neck for added warmth.
The liner has an orange lining to increase survival rates and make it easier to spot in case of rescue.
The military spec tag around the neck has an A stamp on it, indicating that it is a discarded item.
There is Velcro on the chest that may represent various units and ranks.
BAREN STARK Velcro is included but is removable.
The material used is goatskin, which is highly durable, yet lightweight and soft to the touch.
This item has a military design but is also easy to wear casually around town.
There are slight scratches on the ribs.
There are no other signs of wear and the leather is in good condition with no visible scratches.
