Story & heritage
Black Tails Flight Jacket sits inside Greg Lauren’s recurring Flight jacket vocabulary rather than a one-season novelty. Greg Lauren launched his namesake ready-to-wear brand in 2011 after working as an artist; MR PORTER describes the label around deconstruction, military surplus, vintage workwear and Los Angeles-made clothing.
The official Greg Lauren page presents this piece as Introducing our Black Tails Flight Jacket in Black - featuring a sleek black exterior complemented by a vibrant orange lining for a bold pop of contrast. This modern take on a classic silhouette includes ribbed cuffs for comfort, a button closure for easy wear.
Materials & craft
Official product copy places the garment in Los Angeles construction and emphasizes functional details such as pockets, closures, trims, or relaxed proportions depending on the style.
Material notes from the official listing include 90% nylon; 10% cotton.
How to choose & style
Style Black Tails Flight Jacket as the focal layer: keep the rest of the outfit quieter so the patched surfaces, long lines or utility details can lead.
For a more lived-in Greg Lauren look, pair it with washed denim, relaxed trousers, soft tees or tonal knitwear rather than polished tailoring.
