1930s Abercrombie & Fitch Wool “A-1 Style” Cossack Jacket – Red Buffalo Plaid

An extraordinary and extremely rare 1930s Abercrombie & Fitch Co. piece, designed in the style of early A-1 flight and cossack jackets — blending military and hunting influences that defined interwar American outerwear.

Made in New York, U.S.A., this jacket is constructed from heavyweight red and black buffalo plaid wool, featuring a short, cropped silhouette with a rib-knit waistband and cuffs, button-front closure, and two flapped chest pockets — all signature traits of early A-1–inspired designs.

The interior features the original black-and-gold “Abercrombie & Fitch Co., New York” woven label, dating it firmly to the 1930s. The craftsmanship and proportions reflect the transitional period between pre-war sportswear and aviator jackets — made for both rugged outdoor activity and refined style.
