    Cockpit 100 Mission G-1

    The Goatskin on this jacket looks outstanding! It looks identical to the hide on some of the original 1940's M-422 jackets I have had. Far beyond the "mall jacket" leather I got on the standard Cockpit version I had around 5 years ago. The seam on the waist portion is in the specs somewhere. I...

    A Review - U.S. Authentic G-1

    Looks Nice! I like the pocket shape. Looks like they are using sewn together wrist knits instead specification one piece wool knits. I wonder if they are wool or a poly blend? Also a modern paperclip style zipper instead of a silver Talon found on most original M422 jackets. It would be a more...

    USN G-1 pockets really uneven, fixable?

    Here's a breakdown real quick from the specs. It appears it could have been issued depending on other defects. The pocket position itself it not disqualifying.

    USN G-1 pockets really uneven, fixable?

Not sure how that translates to the tolerances allowed. I do know that I have never seen the pockets this...
