WORNE x Clutch Cafe Vintage USAF CWU 1980s Flight Jacket 1108NS Based on 1950's open collarEarlier flight jackets were made from fabrics that were found to melt when a pilot was caught in a fire. As technology improved, there was a need for a fire retardant jacket. This led to the rise of the CWU (Cold Weather Uniform) 36 P and 45 P made from Nomex. Nomex was created by Dupont and is known for its excellent thermal, chemical, and radiation resistance. The military still issues Nomex jackets to Air Force pilots. For any further information
