This D pocket is a Ralphs-Pugh style of pocket. Very nice reproduction. RL does some very interesting redos. This one is most interesting.

The RL is based on this Johnson Bros

The coolest part about this "phantom jacket" is the back. Only this one has the no gusseted fixed open eye back right?

It does seem unlikely but if I lose my arms or something I guess I won't need it anymore lol

Nah, you could convert it to a vest.

Found this funky vintage fingertip length at the ol' goodwill, the fit was decent and for fifteen bucks I couldn't resist it. Marked Zeiler, an old West German label

This jacket is pretty special to me. My Grandpa was a carrier pilot in the Canadian Navy, and wore this jacket as a young flyer. Then my old man wore it tearing around southern England on his motorcycle in the late 60's, and I've done the same on both coasts of this country. Today was just about walking to the Optometrist's office, but I felt pretty cool doing in!

Very nice. There’s just something about the old G-1’s.

Awesome. There’s just something about the old G-1’s.

Yeah, when they work, they work. Nice bit of history too so it’s cool that it works.

Love this Vanson (on a hanger). It’s unfortunately entirely too small. I did the usual mental gymnastics of trying to convince myself otherwise…but I suspect this will be back in the classifieds in short order. Shame as It’s an absolutely stunning heavy, thick mahogany batch of comp weight View attachment 500974

Exquisite jacket! The color is captivating and the unique details of the cuffs, slanted pockets and front placket/zipper area are perfection. Thanks for sharing.
