Black Faux Leather Look Aviator Pilot Jacket

Black Faux Leather Look Aviator Pilot Jacket

The Black Faux Leather Look Aviator Pilot Jacket from Leather Outlet is a pilot-style jacket made from a leather-look fabric rather than genuine leather. This is not a leather jacket — the outer material is a synthetic, leather-look fabric designed to approximate the visual appearance of leather without using animal hide. It carries the aviator pilot jacket silhouette — ribbed cuffs and hem, zip front, wide collar, and a relaxed body — at a different price point and with a lighter overall weight than a genuine leather version. If you are looking for a real leather pilot jacket, our aviator leather pilot jackets collection has genuine leather options to compare.

• Material: Synthetic leather-look fabric outer (not genuine leather); fabric lining
• Fit: Relaxed pilot jacket fit; wide collar, ribbed cuffs and hem
• Closure: Front zip
• Color: Black
• Care: Wipe with a damp cloth; do not use leather conditioner (this is not leather); hang or fold to store; check care label for machine wash guidance

What Is a Faux Leather Look Fabric?

Faux leather — also called leather-look fabric, PU leather, or synthetic leather — is a coated fabric product that approximates the visual surface texture of leather without being made from animal hide. It is typically lighter in weight than genuine leather, does not develop a patina with wear, and has a different longevity profile. The material is suitable for buyers who want the aesthetic of a leather jacket without the material specifics of real hide, or who are looking for an animal-free option. It will not age the same way genuine leather does, and it does not need conditioning.

Pilot Jacket Silhouette

The aviator pilot jacket silhouette — wide ribbed collar, zip front, ribbed cuffs and hem, and a relaxed chest and shoulder fit — is well-established and practical. The wide collar provides coverage around the neck when worn up, and the ribbed openings provide a reasonable wind seal without needing a belt or cinch. In a leather-look fabric, the silhouette reads the same as in genuine leather at a distance, though the material has different weight and drape characteristics up close. For the genuine leather version of this silhouette, see our aviator leather pilot jackets or the full men's leather jackets collection.

How to Wear It

This jacket pairs well with dark jeans, chinos, and casual trousers. The relaxed fit means it layers easily over t-shirts and thin knitwear. The black colourway is straightforward to style — it works with most other colours in a wardrobe. Keep it clean with simple pieces underneath so the jacket's silhouette reads clearly. For leather-look bottoms to match, our leather pants for men collection has genuine leather trouser options if you want to contrast the materials deliberately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this jacket made from real leather?

No. This jacket is made from a synthetic leather-look fabric, not genuine leather. If you are looking for a real leather aviator jacket, see our aviator leather pilot jackets collection.

What is the material exactly?

The outer material is a synthetic, leather-look coated fabric — sometimes called PU leather or faux leather. It is not animal hide. The lining is fabric.

Can I use leather conditioner on this jacket?

No. Leather conditioner is designed for genuine leather and is not appropriate for synthetic faux leather. Wipe with a damp cloth only for cleaning. Check the care label for washing guidance.

How long will the faux leather last?

Synthetic leather-look fabric typically has a shorter lifespan than genuine leather. With normal care it will last several years, though it will not develop the patina and character of real leather over time.
