Maison CHAPAL – The modern times aviator reinterprets history

Like the pilots who have worn these models, the jackets manufactured by CHAPAL are well known for their masculinity.
The brand’s history in the service of aviation justifies its legitimacy.
The 1914 Vest, symbol of the aviator, was first manufactured in Crocq factory (France) in 1916 to contribute to the war effort.

The French-style excellence of Maison CHAPAL is shown in its artisanal and academic production. It has been practiced on the land of CHAPAL family origins in Creuse region for 190 years. Its legendary manly jackets are designed to last a lifetime and escape fashion trends.

CHAPAL offers another vision of its collections presented by Gabriel.
He is the aviator of modern times. A subtle choice of the Place de la Concorde, a few steps away from the brand’s Parisian showroom, giving to this photo shoot a historical atmosphere.
He reinterprets the mythical jackets, without losing the brand’s DNA: exceptional raw materials and a unique savoir-faire.

Gabriel shows us how much a man, through his sensitivity, can blend into this world and make it his own. He wears these manly jackets with delicacy and elegance.

Place de la Concorde becomes his aerodrome.
The aviator becomes a delicate romantic person.
Robustness becomes softness and comfort.

The superposition of pieces gives Gabriel a timeless elegance that plays on the ambiguity of genres. He sublimates these original models made of noble materials: glossy leather or suede leather, shearling, Merino wool and Whipcord gabardine. The accessories are audacious and refined, adding a touch of delicacy.

The ambivalence of styles and men allows to embody an unconventional fashion.
Gabriel proves that style is what everyone makes of it.
Fashion is only a question of personality and has no gender.
