Gibson-Barnes pics

[DustyUSAF]

Does anybody have any pics of the Gibson-Barnes Air Force A-2? More specifically, what I'm looking for is a comparison between the dark brown leather and the seal. It's hard to see a real difference from the tiny swatches on their website. Thanks.

As it happens, there's a thread over at Vintage Leather Jackets with pictures of a brand new G&B USAF G-1:

Here's a shot of my G&B Historical M-422A back when it was new. The color of the seal goatskin is pretty accurate in this (film) picture taken in open shade.

Here's my Flightsuits (G&B) Airforce A-2 that I ordered in 2000. First pic: with flash. Second pic: no flash. If you call them, they'll send you some swatches for free. BTW: If you think my coat hangs funny, it's because it has the thinsulate lining.

Nice pics everybody, thank you. Hey Jack, is that considered Seal or Dark Brown?

Dark brown. I think that's all they offer as far as the Air Force A-2. The civil version has the color options.

I agree. For the price, G&B is excellent. Unless a person is after a certain historical A-2, I always recommend G&B.

These appear to be very nice jackets. I would strongly consider them if I were in the market for an A-2 or G-1.
