Scotch Jock the Teddy Bear

Sporting Scotland’s most famous item of clothing, Scotch Jock the Teddy Bear is a mascot with a difference. Not only did he bring luck to Lieutenant William MacLanachan, a fighter pilot in the Royal Flying Corps on the Western Front, he also reminds us of the part Teddy Bear manufacturers played in supporting the war effort by producing pilots’ clothing during the First World War.
