    Greetings and my new (old) G-1

    Sorry, It seemed to me that I have written in English) There I wrote that my G1 also squeaked, but then after I wear it often, squeak stopped itself))) It seems to me that it made not from goatskin, but cow. I have Cooper A2 goatskin and there is quite a different leather.

    Question about AVILTHR A2 jacket

    You mean that the epaulets are too moved forward? They write on their website that were inspired by Bronco. I am a little confused by a very wide elastic bands on the cuffs (they seemed stretched initially). In the photo of course difficult to understand.

    Cooper A-2 question

    The next step ... tried to find a suitable piece of leather in correct color. Now I did not understand, I managed to get what I wanted or not. In any case, the original color of leather inner authentic patch image is heavily dependent on the calibration of the monitor.

    My G-1 Lineup (Others Invited)

    I love my G1. This is the original USN G1 1973 jacket Brill Bros. I bought it new, but it had a strong smell of storage. Professional dry cleaning and hanging out to the sun and the wind helped.
