The FiveStar Leather Repro USAAF AN-6550 suit was crafted from a mixture of gabardine and wool, enhancing its endurance and adaptability for various weather conditions. The gabardine/wool material provided a perfect balance of durability, warmth, and breathability. We use the Repro Talon two way slider front zipper for the closure, and the number and placement of pockets mirrored that of the original version. The AN-6550 gabardine/wool suit typically came in the same olive drab color as the original, serving as a popular choice among USAAF pilots, especially those operating in colder climates or during winter months. This versatile and enduring suit quickly became a coveted piece of aviation attire throughout World War II.
