Our Desert Wear Collection features our US Wings Adventure Gear™ Khakis, along with other essential desert gear. Our khakis are the finest in the world and the most authentic as well -- our khaki shirts and pants, which are based on original WWII USAAF pants and shirts, are the only true military patterned khakis we've seen. Our popular Bush Jacket is a timeless classic -- as popular and practical today as it was in the '30s. Our khakis are extremely durable and tough enough to wear while trekking across the Sahara or exploring the rugged Outback, yet stylish and versatile enough to handle the urban jungle. Perfect for casual wear, with a tie for semi-dressy ocassions, or for the true adventurer or outdoorsman. Made in the USA.
Beware of inferior imitations being sold by others which carry our label. The genuine USA-made Adventure Gear™ Khaki line is ONLY available online through our website, or from our Retail Pilot Shop in Stow, OH.

US Wings Adventure Gear™
Plain Front Khaki Pants
|
 |
|
The phrase "They don't make 'em like that anymore" doesn't apply to our US Wings Adventure Gear™ Khaki trousers. In fact, we make 'em just like they did 70 years ago. Following the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" dictum, our khaki pants are patterned after the classic WWII US Army and USAAF originals -- with the proper, and slightly trimmer, military fit. After all, they were good enough for General MacArthur! These no-nonsense plain-front khaki pants feature deep drill-cloth pockets, heavy duty brass zipper, and rugged construction throughout. We've even included the front "watch" pocket. Don't let the low price fool you -- these khaki pants, like all the other khaki items in our Adventure Gear line, are the finest in the world. Made in the USA.
Note: the pants come with a small hem to prevent unraveling. Measure, cut, and re-hem them to your desired length. To prevent excessive shrinkage, the pants should not be placed in a dryer. Drip-dry only.

US Wings Adventure Gear™
Khaki Cargo Pants
|
 |
|
These are the perfect pants for your next outback adventure! Has the same high quality construction as our plain-front khakis, but features button flapped rear pockets and two additional "cargo" pockets on the front. Unlike other "cargo pants" which feature huge bellows pockets, our cargo pockets are smaller and tastefully discreet, making these pants stylish enough for an evening at the pub, but rugged enough for wilderness exploring. Made in the USA.
Note: the pants come with a small hem to prevent unraveling. Measure, cut, and re-hem them to your desired length. To prevent excessive shrinkage, the pants should not be placed in a dryer. Drip-dry only.

US Wings Adventure Gear™
Khaki Shirts (short & long sleeve)
|
 |
|
This is the finest and most rugged khaki shirt you'll ever own! Like our Khaki Trousers, we patterned our shirt after the original WWII US Army and USAAF version. The durable material and construction of these shirts makes them very rugged and abrasion resistant, yet the shirt is also very refined. Tuck it in and add a necktie for a casual business lunch. Or cast aside the tie and roll-up the sleeves when it's time to get down to business. Looks equally at-home under a sport coat or a leather "bomber" jacket. Features two pleated button-flapped chest pockets (with pen slot in left pocket flap), slightly tailored fit, and epaulets like the original Army and Air Corps shirts. Available in long- or short-sleeve versions. Made in the USA.
Note: sizes run small. For a more normal fit, order one size larger. To prevent excessive shrinkage, the jacket should not be placed in a dryer. Drip-dry only.

US Wings Adventure Gear™
Bush Jacket (short & long sleeve)
|
 |
|
There have been many versions of the four-pocket safari/bush jacket, but ours is a true classic! Since the 1930s, the bush jacket has been the favorite of adventurers, explorers, hunters and outdoorsmen. It was also worn by Hollywood legends in a number of classic motion pictures. The jacket's design is as functional as it is stylish, and we offer ours in both long and short sleeve versions. Our jacket is both water and abrasion resistant and features two large chest pockets and two lower bellowed cargo pockets to carry all your gear. The button epaulets allow you to securely sling a bag, camera, or pair of binoculars over your shoulder, and the long sleeve version has button-cuffs which can be rolled-up or worn down for full protection. The jacket also features a removeable waist belt, and a bi-swing back for unrestricted freedom of movement. This is one of those timeless pieces of clothing that transcends the fickle trends of fashion and will keep you looking good well into the new millennium. Made in the USA.
Note: to prevent excessive shrinkage, the jacket should not be placed in a dryer. Drip-dry only.
"We thought it was getting hard to find a classic bush jacket until we noticed that our friends at U.S. Wings now make authentic versions. Once a staple in the wardrobe of every self-respecting safarist — including the armchair variety — these jackets define stylish utility..." reprinted with permission from the "After Hours" section of the April 2001 issue of Playboy magazine.

These are genuine US Military pith helmets (1940s - 1960s era), not imported reproductions. They are in unissued, brand new condition. We were lucky enough to locate a supply of these helmets in a warehouse, and are making them available to our customers. Traditionally used by the colonial forces of Europe, India, Africa and the US, it was also widely used by missionaries, archaeologists, adventurers, and anyone else living in, or traveling to, the tropics. Original pith helmets were made from pith bark, from which the helmet derives its name. Over the years, construction and materials were improved, making it one of the most practical types of hot weather headwear. Pith helmets provide excellent protection from the sun, and the adjustable one size fits all web headband allows cooling air to circulate around the top and sides of the head, aided by multiple side vents. This is the same type commonly worn by US forces stationed in the Pacific during WWII. Perfect for camping, hiking, gardening, safaris, or any other outdoor activity. Available with or without USAAF or USMC cap device. Genuine US Military-issue, in unissued condition. Simulated top vent cap and puggaree band molded into helmet. Front chin strap on brim. Khaki color. Made in the USA.
