An aviator jacket that carries the legacy of French aviation

The BLOUPNHN NOIR by Aéro-Design isn’t just a leather jacket—it’s a piece of history reimagined for modern wear. Born from the iconic PN (Personnel Navigant) jackets of the 1970s, originally designed to shield pilots from the biting cold of high-altitude flights, this edition limited transforms a functional classic into a statement of style. Each jacket is crafted in France, a tribute to the precision and quality manufacturing of French aviation heritage.

A unique touch of authenticity

What sets this jacket apart is its connection to the skies. Every BLOUPNHN NOIR features a genuine metal plate on the chest, salvaged from the wing of a Mirage IIIB fighter jet. This isn’t just a detail—it’s a mark of authenticity, a tangible link to the machines that once ruled the skies. The jacket is made from premium full-grain lambskin leather, dyed in a deep, lustrous black using a of Mazamet. This method not only enhances the leather’s natural beauty but also creates subtle variations in the grain, giving each jacket its own character.

Designed for comfort and style

The BLOUPNHN NOIR stays true to the original aviator silhouette while refining it for contemporary wear. The fit is slightly tapered, offering a more modern, streamlined look without sacrificing the roominess needed for layering. Inside, a polyester lining printed with a fighter jet roundel adds a touch of nostalgia, reinforcing the jacket’s aviation roots. Practicality meets style with a range of functional details: a zippered chest pocket, two piped hand pockets, a "Zippo" pocket with a flap on the chest, and a zippered sleeve pocket—all designed to keep essentials secure and accessible.
