This luftwaffe jacket
is one of the most sought-after flight jackets in the eyes of a
collector.
It was originally issued to Luftwaffe personnel given
mainly to those of the Heinkel Uhu Nachtjäger 219 Crews (Heinkel
Eagle Owl Night Hunters).
The
He
219 UHU
were
night fighters used towards the later stages of WW2, they were the
first aircrafts to have ejection seats and to have tricycle landing
gears.
The original jackets were available in a heated and non-heated
version.
The heated version was able to be plugged in to the
aircraft, our replica is the non-heated version.

Only problem...
Only problem is with the button holes, they are really, really, really tight.
I was worried about both the fit and quality of this product, but I must say that both were fine upon inspection once the jacket arrived.
It also has a unique and classy look, and has obviously been made with dedication and skill.
Just one warning: Make sure you are ordering the right size-this is a short, tight fitting jacket, so make sure you contact Noblehouse and ask for the size that corresponds to your chest circumference.
Danke!
