townhouse on rue de Rivoli locates the showroom of the French aviator jacket maker \u2014 Chapal. With the buzz sound as I entered the password, I let the heavy gate shut out noises on the busy avenue. Inside the building is tranquil, I found myself stepping on the geometric-lined mosaic floor surrounded by marble walls, sculptured ceilings with the illumination of the afternoon sunlight through the stained glass windows. It feels nothing like a luxury shopping experience but rather the 007 on a secret mission. And that\u2019s exactly what Chapal\u2019s clients would experience when they visit the showroom.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section

Even my grandpa, a retired lieutenant in his eighties \u2014 an age of detachment from material desires \u2014 was yearning for a leather jacket and eventually got one with his pension last winter. The model my grandpa got was a loose-cutting long jacket in brown calf leather, which I didn\u2019t appreciate at first. I\u2019m more used to fit-cutting biker jackets which prevailed in fashion in the recent decade.

In 1914, at the beginning of World War I, Chapal produced a long flying jacket for the French aviators. Back then, the zipper was not invented yet, so the jacket was fastened by a leather belt. Today, to memorise the legacy, the brand is still producing the same model in its collections.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-90fa09a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"90fa09a\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1301eae\" data-id=\"1301eae\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-37c53a8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"37c53a8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>What\u2019s worth mentioning is Chapal also created the prototype of the emblematic A-1 jacket in 1925. During WWI, aviation technology advanced rapidly and the cockpit in the fighting planes are filled with new instruments, which leads to narrower space for the pilot to move around. For better agility and flexibility, A-1 was born as the first short flight jacket replacing the cumbersome long version. On 1927 May 21st, Charles Lindbergh complete the first-ever nonstop solo transatlantic flight from NYC to Paris in that iconic A-1 jacket. By the time A-1 was officially introduced to the US army in 1927, it was featured button fastening, as the zipper was just invented and only applied on luggage. Today, to pay tribute to the original model, Chapal\u2019s A-1 jacket is still fastened by 8 high-quality horn buttons.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section

A-2, the upgraded version of the A-1 jacket used in WWII, was finally equipped with a zipper closure. As for G-1, the model replaced A-2 in 1943, famously worn by Tom Cruise in Top Gun, features a bi-swing back and mouton fur collar. Chapal\u2019s USAAF has a detachable sheep fur collar and the waist and cuff feature woollen knitted ribs as the original

As in 1934, with its overseas factory in Brooklyn, Chapal invented an exclusive patent of plastic coating on sheepskin to make it waterproof. Back then, many planes are still open-air and uninsulated, this technic was applied on the bomber jackets (B-3) for the US air force to keep the soldiers from cold and

Laurence, the business manager of Chapal, told me that the thickness of the sheep leather (a specific breed from central France\uff0c southeast region Les Causses) they use for the jackets is around 1.2 cm, which is thick enough for shoemaking.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>The brand Chapal didn\u2019t emerge from some fashionable ideas on the street of Paris, but from the nearly two-century-old tannery in Crocq, France. Their tannery is specialised in high-quality sheep leather, shearling and sheep fur. One of the strengths of Chapal\u2019s savour-fair is to transform naturally rough sheep fur into a silky texture. The secret formula to make such a transformation was kept inside the brand with very old machines involved in the process. As Laurence explained to me: \u201cIn the region where Chapal was born, the workers couldn\u2019t find jobs, so they had to go to Lyon, which is very famous for silk history, so they learn how to dyeing the silk, and (when they work for Chapal) they tried to apply the technic on the rabbit fur, that was the original invention of the Chapal family for the first time in history\u201d. Colourful furs are popular among customers, and as you can imagine, orders arrived from all over the world to Chapal: \u201cthe success arrives immediately and Chapal started as a big company immediately\u201d, emphatically noted by Jean-Fran\u00e7ois. In 70s\u2019 Chapal used to supply fur for luxury labels including Fendi and Christian Dior, but now the manufactory is exclusively for the Chapal collection.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d4a0ff9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"d4a0ff9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-efd4dd4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"efd4dd4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-dbc7cea\" data-id=\"dbc7cea\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4bbae10 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"4bbae10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.agneselect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DSCF8573-scaled.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Chapal USAAF\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\"\u7070\u8272\u7248\u672c\u7684Chapal USAAF\u593e\u514b \" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6OTAwNywidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3d3dy5hZ25lc2VsZWN0LmNvbVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyMlwvMDJcL0RTQ0Y4NTczLXNjYWxlZC53ZWJwIn0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"684\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.agneselect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DSCF8573-684x1024.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-9007\" alt=\"Chapal USAAF\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.agneselect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DSCF8573-684x1024.webp 684w, https:\/\/www.agneselect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DSCF8573-scaled-600x898.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.agneselect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DSCF8573-200x300.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.agneselect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DSCF8573-768x1150.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.agneselect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DSCF8573-scaled.webp 1026w, https:\/\/www.agneselect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DSCF8573-1320x1976.webp 1283w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 684px) 100vw, 684px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Chapal USAAF<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cab0e19 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cab0e19\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-21a9f62\" data-id=\"21a9f62\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9041de9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"9041de9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4753d2a elementor-drop-cap-yes elementor-drop-cap-view-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4753d2a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;drop_cap&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The impeccably luxurious use of leather, the original military cutting and the history of supplying France &amp;
