    UK contact for jacket restoration, knit part replacement etc... Great work by Jules Bloom!!!

    Yes, UK based. You'll need to discuss costs with him, as it all depends what needs doing. What I will say is that he is competitively price (comparing with Aero, Donna and others), but does an outstanding, neat, tidy and professional job.

    UK contact for jacket restoration, knit part replacement etc... Great work by Jules Bloom!!!

    I've just received my Star G-1 back from having the knit parts replaced (I supplied the knit parts in this case), and the gentleman who did the work, Jules Bloom, did an amazing job. I'm very pleased. He is an avid USN jacket fan and occasionally has jackets for sale also. He knows his stuff...

    Original 1963 Ralph Edwards B Series 1040-63 G-1 size 42 MINT

    I was not planning another jacket in my wait for the GW A-2, but this opportunity came up and I couldn’t pass. Its an incredible find, especially for being in the UK. The jacket appears to be in superb, mint condition, time capsuled from the early 1960, a real treasure. My problem is that the...

    AVI LTHR's ANJ-3 Flight Jacket pics & review

    And the comparison with the AVI M-422A You can see the slightly darker seal goat of the ANJ is also a teeny bit more grainy. Lovely jackets both!

    Cockpit USA 100 Mission G-1 42 NEW with tags F/S

    Decided to sell this as its not going to get the wear and love it deserves. Cockpit makes an outstanding jacket, but I need to move some jackets. This is new with tags, unworn, but for the fit pics. Size 42, but comfortable/ generous 42 I'd say (if you are of regular build)... Im looking to...

    AVI LTHR's ANJ-3 Flight Jacket pics & review

    AVI's new ANJ-3 This is their 'take' on the 1943 ANJ-3, essentially their M-422 with a leather collar, epaulets, regular left pocket and brown rayon lining. As AVI says, its... "what they would have supplied the Quartermaster if they were producing jackets back in 1943"... Its damn comfortable...

    Bill Kelso Indy Jackets ?

    Edwards spot on. BK is the creme de la creme; leather, pattern, detailing.... But you'll wait and you'll pay. Wested's jacket are great on all levels, especially for the price. Lots of options, depending what you're after. I had the Hero Raiders in lamb, light and comfy. No need to look...

    Big guy needs sizing help; Leather A2 repro...

    Just saw this. Im an A-2 guy. Own/ owned almost everything, from everyone. Your jacket looks good, rather have a touch of extra room, than too little. Also allows you too layer a bit if needs be. The jacket will loosen up the more you wear it, and dont be afraid to wear it in the rain and then...

    Cockpit USA 100 Mission G-1 42 review & pics

    The seal brown knits are ok, Cockpits' usual blend. Not 100% wool thats for sure. They are decent enough and will last. Lots of labels to make sure one knows this was made in the ol' US-of-A ;) Overall a great jacket for those not pedantic about original detailing or cloning of any...

    Cockpit USA 100 Mission G-1 42 review & pics

    Been a while since Ive done one of these, and dont recall seeing much about this jacket, so here goes. This is Cockpit's Classic Naval Aviator's "100 Mission" G-1 Flight Jacket, size 42 This is the same jacket as the Top Gun heroes, but without the patches. Obviously. So, is this a G-1 or an...
