Does anyone know the name of this Bootleggers Reunion / Freewheelers two tone aviator? I'm trying to find detailed pics of the d pocket but I don't know what search term to use.

Unlike a motorcycle jacket, Aviator jackets don't feature snaps on the lapels, beltloops or epaulets. They come with buttoned cuffs (instead of zippers).I have a question regarding the classification of jackets. It regards cross zip jackets with wide lapels and collars. Sometimes they are referred to as motorcycle jackets and sometimes they are referred to as aviators. Is there a checklist to go down to determine if a particular jacket is related to motorcycles or airplanes? I’m pretty confident that if it has a wide belt along the bottom and lace up side adjustment that is going to be strictly motorcycle.

It's not a recent term. They were already calling them Aviator's style jackets back in the days.The "Aviator" is a fairly recently dug-up term, coined for leather jackets based on a light-weight flight jackets of the 1920's and 1930's.
