Cockpit USA aims to be a name that is synonymous with authenticity and a sense of strong American legacy. At Cockpit USA, we are a brand that is built on the firm foundations of an affinity for leather, aviation, and an all-American heritage. Cockpit USA is committed to providing the most authentic leather aviation jackets possible. We accomplished this by working closely with the USAF in order to bring back the A-2 Flight Jacket into military use in 1987. Since then we have supplied Navy, Marine, and Coast Guard units, as well as many foreign militaries. We have also been popular among civilian pilots, air show performers, military pilots, movie stars, sports stars, and even current and former U.S. Our clothing is meant for the function and fashion conscious who are looking for high quality outerwear, which is predominantly made in the USA. We strive to produce a quality garment that can last years and be passed down generations. At Cockpit USA it is our mission to preserve the heritage of American life styles and take pride in reminiscing the classic iconic eras of American fashion.

The M-51 Fishtail Parka traces its roots to the U.S. Army in Korea, where it was designed to withstand the rigorous, wet winters of the early 1950s. A decade later, it found a new life on the streets of London and New York, becoming a staple among working men looking to protect their suits from the city’s cold and rain.

Cockpit USA’s interpretation stays true to that history, crafted from authentic, water-repellent mil-spec cotton/nylon canvas in olive green.

This clean, classic parka can also be purchased with a shearling liner for added insulation (Z21X029), or with an embroidered U.S. Army Airborne Parachute Wing insignia (Z26W103C) a unique design honoring the bravery of military parachutists.

Authentic. Historic. Built for movement.

The Cotton A-2, styled for the streets of Seoul. 🇺🇸🇰🇷

Introduced in 1979 as a lightweight take on the iconic leather A-2, the Cotton A-2 carries the same aviation-inspired spirit into a more relaxed, everyday silhouette.

Styled classsicly here on 클래씨 in Seoul, Korea, our Cotton A-2 is the perfect layer for in-between-season weather. We’re looking forward to what Classsy will be wearing next!

Can you hear the crunch? 🍂🍂🍂

It’s the first day of Fall ’26

Versatile enough for multi-seasonal wear, the A-2 is a timeless American style born from military aviation.

Featured here on Linus & Kiba's adventure diary is our “100 Mission” A-2. Handcrafted and manufactured in the USA from our perfectly tanned antique lambskin, it features a fuller fit and is designed to distress naturally with wear, making each jacket uniquely your own.

Linus typically wears a size L, but is shown here wearing a size M in the “100 Mission” A-2.

Cockpit USA is the supplier of the USAF A-2 Pilot’s Leather Jacket. Shop the A-2 collection at CockpitUSA.com today!

Today, we remember September 11, 2001 — the nearly 3,000 lives lost, the first responders who ran toward danger, and the countless lives forever changed.

We remember the passengers and crews aboard the four flights, and the aviation professionals who helped bring the nation’s skies safely to the ground. When U.S. airspace was brought to an unprecedented standstill, air traffic controllers guided thousands of aircraft to airports across the country, carrying people home and helping restore a sense of order in an uncertain time.

Today, we honor their memory and all those whose lives were affected. 🇺🇸

Loading… Leather Weather Is Almost Here.

For versatility, durability, and protection against the elements, the flight jacket has remained an enduring classic. From the cockpit to just about anywhere, the A-2 is a timeless style built to be worn.

For our Battleworn™ A-2, we started with the classic pattern used for our WWII government-issue Type A-2 and recreated what one of these jackets might look like after 80 years of wear and tear. Crafted from pre-aged horsehide, it’s aged to perfection, giving a new jacket the character and patina of a well-loved original.

Featured here on American Airpower Museum volunteer Nick Casseus, the Cockpit USA Battleworn™ A-2 is a piece built to be worn, lived in, and passed down.

Cockpit USA has proudly remained a supplier of the USAF A-2 Leather Flight Jacket since 1987, with this jacket proudly manufactured in the USA. 🇺🇸

The Mustang A-2 is back.

Linus & Kiba's adventure diary wears one of our favorite American-made flight jackets flawlessly. Crafted from full-grain vegetable-tanned goatskin and built to look like it’s already lived a lifetime.

Faithful to the originals, this jacket features authentic A-2 details including a vintage-style collar stand, hook-and-eye throat latch, snap-down collar, and classic pocket flaps. Modern updates like our signature appliqué lining, side-entry pockets, and interior storage make it an everyday essential without sacrificing its heritage.

Proudly Made in the USA. Built to be worn for years to come.

Inspired by one of naval aviation’s most iconic aircraft, the F-14 Tomcat Tee features artwork based on the original Tomcat insignia developed in the early 1970s for Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation. The F-14 Tomcat, a supersonic, twin-engine, variable-sweep wing fighter, was developed for the U.S. Navy and remains one of the most recognizable aircraft in aviation history.

Our collection of aviation graphic tees honors the aircraft, the history, and the men and women who flew them.
