Kind of depends on what kind of car are you driving. I use a G-1 in my convertible, really nice with that fur collar turned up if it gets too cool. When the weather is cool the G-1 is great for any of my cars. I have a coupla cotton vests to use in really warm weather. Ciao, SPAD
Bush jacket
Just got a Safari -Bush jacket, short sleeve, from US Wings at a reasonable price. 2XL, and I wear a 46- 48 jacket and the jacket fits good and is made of pretty heavy weight cotton. Nice khaki color. Summer is coming. Looks good. SPAD
Who knows what weird law The Peoples Republik of Kalifornia has passed, you probably have to have a certificate of authentivity that the goat was on his or her deathbed and had not been abused or subject to unusal treatment before it's demise. H/H probaly is in another catagory. Do not mention...
Shaul Dover does have an accent, if he was from Israel I would expect it, in fact if he was New York I would expect it. In my opinion he sure makes a nice jacket. I have a goatskin from US Authentic that is breaking in very nicely, and I don't know the difference of 10 stiches to an inch or 40...
I have 3 goat A-2's and one is pretty heavy, a Cooper. My others are a little lighter, US Authentic and Pro-tech. The Pro-Tech A-2 is almost 20 years old and still looks great, has developed a nice patina. The USAuth is really supple and very comfortable. I have had a coupla HH, but they don't...
Rainguy, that's the jacket alright, nice looking. The Toby Mug was a present from a flying nut friend of mine, who has a registered one and had talked to the fellow who was making the recreations and his search for the original. He called me and said"do you want one". He knew tha answer would...
Jacketquest, Not being an expert on leather weight or leather. The following comparison may be beneficial. Compared to a Cooper A-2 the goat is a tad lighter, hardly discernable, the USAuth is more supple. The color is lighter brown then the Cooper. Another thing, the stiching seems better on...
Sharpetoys, mailed the jacket on the 8th of Jan. and had it back on 20 Jan. That was only 12 days and that included the shipping time. I sent the jacket UPS ground and they sent it back insured USPS which was faster. In between they sent a picture of progress and asked me for any modifications...
I shipped my A-2 to Jerri Bergen at Victory-Girl.com at an airport in southern California. We had talked on the phone and did some E-mailing. The artwork is fantastic and the turn around time was great. Needless to say I really like the picture, and of course the US Authentic A-2 in medium brown...
That sure is a beautiful jacket. I would call the Shaul Dover and e-mail him a picture I think he would pick up the postage upon seeing the problem. I just got my US Authentic goakskin and they really make a nice jacket.I'm having trouble posting a picture on Fedora though. Yours looks great...
I love the answer to the label, "US Air force or something" think it's some one having some fun. Wishing he had the real thing or maybe got it via the Midnite Garmet Supply Co. SPAD[huh] :)
Goodson jacket
I have one of the goatskin Goodson jackets that I got out of the PX catalog in the late 80's. This is not the same one that is being advertised as a Goodson replica. The Goodson Replica they show now looks like the A-2 jacket made by Excelled Leather, which is not very good. The...
In the low 30's outside and raining, basically miserable stinkin weather. Have to wear the rain jacket, reminds me of my time in Newfoundland with the junior birdman society. Wore the quilted jacket out for a few minutes and started to get soaked, wet, wet, rain. Probaly wear the G-1 a little...
Got my US Authentic Goat today, it is very nice and my wife really likes the fit and color. The jacket came very quick, wasn't expecting it so soon, so what a surprise.They sure gave me good sevice, It does have a more slim fit, and that is what I wanted. If I can figure out how to download some...
Major Danger, I have a cat just like in your picture, only he is 20 pounds. When that jacket comes I'll try and post a picture. Depends how light the seal brown is, hope it isn't dark like a Cooper. I sent back my Cockpit HH, the color was nice but the fit wasn't right. To get the shoulders...
Well it's after Xmas now and we are home from the other side of the state, so made the call to US Authentic and ordered an A-2 in goat. Sure hope it fits and am wondering about the color. I thank you guys and gals for the info on the US Authentic jackets. Have to wait until next year:eek: for...
Well said Ray. I want to know who is this guy climbing into the cockpit of that fighter with his low quarter shoes on? Have him report to supply and get some brogans or he's gonna be on the old mans sh-t list. SPAD;)
