Listed here is this very scarce Shearling and two-toned leather bomber jacket by Willis and Geiger. It carries the vintage Willis and Geiger label shown. Also included is a WWII wooden Laundry Pearl Harbor Hanger. Estate item stored in plastic. Condition: Very Slight wear. It appears it was worn only a few times. Please view all of the images, as they are part of this description. Willis & Geiger Outfitters outfitted Roald Amundsen, Charles Lindbergh, Amelia Earhart, Jacqueline Cochran, Sir Edmund Hillary, the Flying Tigers, and other legends of the 20th century. In 1902, Ben Willis developed his own clothing for his Arctic explorations. In 1928, Willis brought in marketer Howard W. Geiger; they founded Willis & Geiger Outfitters. The company picked up a US defense contract for air force pilot jackets in 1931. In 1936 Ernest Hemingway designed his own bush jacket made by Willis & Geiger Outfitters, and a version of the G-1 military flight jacket was made under contract during World War II designed by Eddie Bauer. When Abercrombie & Fitch went bankrupt in 1977, Willis & Geiger was its largest unpaid creditor and went out of business, but was independently revived by former Abercrombie & Fitch employee Burt Avedon. Sales grew, but conflicts between Avedon and Lands’ End management led to the discontinuation of the brand by 1999. We do not devalue, misrepresent, or discount merchandise to save you on tariffs.
