  • At a glance: The Maverick Leather Bomber Jacket in Distressed Brown is a men's waist-length bomber in full-grain lambskin with a distressed finish, a detachable sherpa collar, ribbed cuffs and waistband, a full front zip, and a quilted nylon lining. Buffalo Jackson Trading Co. designs it in Matthews, North Carolina, and it is made in India. The sherpa collar ships with the jacket.

    An inspired Maverick leather jacket as rugged and iconic as the battle-tested captains of the sky. Where classic aviator style meets first-class quality and design.

    The sherpa collar is what makes this the aviator look. Button it on and the jacket has a face of its own: worn brown leather against a pale collar, a pairing as old as the flight jacket itself. The lambskin is soft from the first wear and has that distressed, broken-in look from day one, with no stiff first season.

    Zip it up and the ribbed cuffs and waistband keep the cold out and the line clean. Over a flannel or a henley it looks like it has been yours for years, whether you are heading down the road or the runway.

    Want a cleaner look? Button the sherpa off. Background reading: why it's called a bomber jacket, the history of the bomber jacket and different bomber jacket styles.

    Colors

    Distressed Brown, Vintage Black

    Built Right

    Full-Grain Lambskin Leather, Distressed Finish

    Buttery soft lambskin with a vintage, broken-in feel from day one. The distressed brown finish is built into the leather, so it doesn't strip or wash out.

    Detachable Sherpa Collar

    Sherpa collar buttons on for cold-weather warmth and buttons off for a cleaner silhouette. Two looks in one jacket. The button system is hidden behind the collar so the jacket reads clean either way.

    Aviator Heritage Silhouette

    Cut in the lineage of classic G-1 and MA-1 aviator jackets. Waist-length, ribbed cuffs and waistband, full front zip.

    Cotton/Nylon Ribbed Cuffs and Waistband

    Heavyweight ribbed knit at the cuffs and hem locks heat in around the wrists and waist without looking like a separate component.

    Quilted Nylon Interior

    Slick, durable quilted nylon lining slides over a flannel or sweater. Easy to clean. Holds up to repeated zipping, layering, and stuffing in a duffle.

    Twin Hand Pockets + Two Interior Chest Pockets

    Two side entry hand pockets for daily carry, plus two interior chest pockets: one open for quick access and one zippered to secure valuables like a wallet, phone, or passport.

    Product Guidance

    Best For The aviator-style enthusiast who wants the heritage silhouette.
    The shoulder-season wearer. The detachable sherpa collar makes one jacket cover spring through late fall.
    The first-leather-jacket buyer. The lambskin is forgiving and the silhouette is timeless.
    The road tripper. Lambskin softens fast and the jacket packs flat.
    Layering Guide Use the WaiR fit tool above for a personalized recommendation.
    Sizing philosophy: Standard fit, classic aviator cut.
    Between sizes: Size DOWN. The lambskin will soften and conform with wear.
    Standard size: Fits a tee or henley underneath comfortably.
    One size up (only for heavy layering): Adds room for a flannel or midweight sweater.
    Sherpa collar on or off: The collar adds a half-inch of bulk at the neck.
    Care Condition every 3 to 6 months. Lambskin is naturally soft and low-maintenance. Clean the sherpa collar separately with a damp cloth.
    Products You May Be Interested In Pair With: Roosevelt Buffalo Leather Pilot Bag | Dark Oak The Pilot Bag is BJ's heritage flight bag — same water buffalo leather, same antique brass hardware, built for the same dual-life professional to complete the look.
    Compare To: Legacy Leather Jacket | Brown Lighter lambskin in the same general aviator family, with a detachable sherpa collar and a more relaxed silhouette. Maverick reads more casual; Legacy more refined.
    Layer Under: Highlands Quilted Leather Vest | Mahogany Brown Quilted lambskin layering vest at the same premium tier as the Legacy. Mahogany tone complements brown cowhide. Fits cleanly under the Legacy when sized up one.

    Product FAQs

    How does the Maverick fit?

    Use the WaiR tool for a personalized recommendation. In between sizes? Size down. The lambskin leather is soft from day one and molds to your body quickly.

    Is the sherpa collar removable?

    Yes. It buttons on and off. Wear it up for extra warmth or remove it for a cleaner bomber silhouette.

    What's the difference between the Maverick and the Legacy?

    Different jacket styles. The Maverick is a classic bomber with ribbed cuffs, relaxed fit, and sherpa collar. The Legacy is a flight jacket with a leather collar, zippered chest pockets, and a slimmer, more tailored fit. The Maverick is more casual; the Legacy is more refined.

    Is the distressed look on purpose?

    Yes. The distressed finish gives the leather a vintage, broken-in look from the first wear. It's intentional, not a defect. The look deepens with wear.

    How do I care for it?

    Condition every 3 to 6 months. The lambskin is naturally soft and low-maintenance. Clean the sherpa collar separately with a damp cloth.

    Will lambskin hold up to daily wear?

    Yes, with reasonable care. Lambskin is softer than cowhide, which means it breaks in faster but also requires avoiding sharp objects and saddle soap. Conditioned twice a year, the Maverick will outlast most of what you wear daily.

    Does the distressed brown finish fade or wash out?

    The finish is built into the leather, not painted on. It does not strip or wash out. Pressure points (elbows, shoulders) develop natural fades that add character over time.
