Does anyone own a 'Time worn' Eastman G-1?

[thor]

It's relatively trim fitting so I ordered one size up (normally I'm a 46 and I went with a 48). The back length is not overly long; it's a true waist length jacket even in a size up. The sleeves are trim, not loose or blousey. Best thing is the grain and patina. A really nice hide, reminiscent of older, vintage goatskin G-1's.
I highly recommend this jacket.

Thanks for the information, combined with the pics, makes me think that it is the old Cooper G-1 pattern, which was pretty good.

Will do Big J, wife's out tomorrow (jacket time) so I'll take the opportunity to venture into the loft and dig it out for a few photos...will be good to see it again and all the others that are living up there in a hopefully moth proof environment.

Hopefully pics should be up by tomorrow evening

That'd be great! Thank you!

I like that a lot. Everytime someone posts up a G-1 or M-422a I'm tempted to get another one.

It's one of the first designs that I really liked when I got into jackets, and it still sits on my 'to get' list.

Yup that's a ripper of a jacket BN, looks fantastic.

Very cool man! Nicely weathered and not overdone.
