JFK’s Leather Bomber Jacket

Few presidents looked as cool under pressure as John F. Kennedy. Cold War? Pssh. You wouldn’t know it when the 35th President of the United States was rocking some shades, chinos, and a nautical top. The man could wear an outfit. Now’s your chance to own an actual piece owned by the late President. One of JFK’s leather G-1 bomber jackets is up for auction. Complete with a Presidential seal sewn over the left breast, the classic bomber was Kennedy’s jacket of choice when out on the water. This particular one was recovered from the President’s yacht, the Honey Fitz, after Kennedy’s assassination. It was custom fit for JFK and is close to a size 44, though we imagine you won’t wear the jacket but rather put it safely on display should you win it.
