    Gibson & Barnes Leather

    If you're tall, US Authentic may be the better option. They add 2 inches to sleeve and body length for their tall sizes while G&B only add 1 inch. I'm also tall with long arms and the US A fit me better.

    Lost Worlds G1 - anybody had one?

    Nice jacket Bigfoot--er, I mean Lando! Lol! What size is that G-1? What's the sleeve and pit to put measurements? The LW A-2 runs true to size if not a bit larger (modern sizing, not WWII trim-fit). And I always wondered about the LW mouton: is it that dark or is that just the camera/lighting...

    Aero's Antique Russet Horsehide ANJ-3

    http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=151041197859&globalID=EBAY-US There's a 1950's Cagleco size 44 G-1 on the 'bay without fur (mouton) on the collar! Not sure if it's some weird production error or the fur was removed by a previous owner, but quite reminiscent of the AN-J-3.

    Aero's Antique Russet Horsehide ANJ-3

    I believe that the Navy specified the bi-swing back (and gussetted underarm) in the M-422 to allow the pilot freedom to swim (after bailing out/ditching of the plane at sea). Now that's what I call "functional"!

    Lost Worlds G1 - anybody had one?

    I'm curious about their G-1 as well. LOVE the LW A-2 and am currently looking for a G-1/M-422 jacket. LW is definitely one to consider!

    M-456a Navy leather flight jacket

    Maybe the trousers were high-wasted (with suspenders?).

    M-456a Navy leather flight jacket

    http://bit.ly/128qtw3 Uk 'bay 300900192392 Saw this on the 'bay. Anybody have any info on this? Seems like the jacket part of a 2-piece electrically heated Navy flight suit.

    Mouton collars on A2 jackets

    That's a great piece of info Fletch; love the esoterica one gleans from TFL. Current Navy uniform regs state that if a jacket is worn it cannot be worn open, and must be zipped at least 1/2 way.

    A2 collar question

    For me, the best stitching (and highest quality of workmanship) was Lost Worlds. I've owned 5 of their jackets (as well as jackets by GW, ELC, Aero, etc) and all my LW jackets have been perfect. I'm not saying they are the best or most accurate, just speaking to the quality and attention to...

    For Sale: Repro WWII US Navy blue deck jacket, XL, MORE PHOTOS!

    Gentlemen, Just posted my Spearhead Militaria WWII repro US Navy deck jacket on the 'Bay (330917975170). Size XL, never worn! Brand new! All the features of Buzz but a fraction of the cost.
