Hello all,
I'm new to the forum but you can buy this on eBay or Grailed.
This jacket was rarely worn as it never fit me well. Purchased for ~$2500 March 2023 from the official (UK) website.
I have not found any visible wear or damage besides some minor piling in the trim.
Specs from the web...

Does anyone have any opinions and/or experience with Cockpit USA’s Navy Carrier Pilot's G-1 Jacket? I think they used to call this their Forrestal G-1.
I have their 100 Mission G-1 (their fur collar version of this), Mil-spec G-1, Top Gun G-1, and 21st Century USAF A-2 jackets. I also have an...
Amazing 1969 G1. Super clean inside and out. Few small holes in the knits, name tag removed, Castillo stamped inside leather not noticeable when wearing.
Collar is all intact, nice and thick, synthetic if I had to guess.
Leather is in great supple condition, I’m not sure if it’s cow or goat. If...
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I‘m a long time reader of this forum, this is the first time I‘m posting or selling anything here. I‘m thinking about selling one of my jackets, so I wanted to let you guys know first. :)
I bought this jacket a view years ago and had it sent from the US to Europe by a...
Good evening all!
I’m brand new here and have been lurking for a while after coming across some of the great postings on flight jackets during my Googling. This is a wonderfully quaint site in general and I’m glad I found it!
I’m based in the UK and I wanted to seek some advice on sourcing...

I've come across a Cooper G-1 blue label jacket, size 46R, online but cannot get the seller to measure it. It's at a very low price, and I've long wanted a good G-1, but I have no idea how this would fit, nor do I know its vintage. I know that G-1s, A-2s, etc. are all over the map when it...
For sale I have a G-1 USN reproduction jacket made by the Eastman Leather Clothing company (ELC)
The jacket is in great shape, all zippers and buttons function as they should. The Vegetable Tanned Goatskin is in great shape, as are the 100% worsted wool knits, and the rayon lining is in...
For a number of reasons I'm sure, G&B has moved their leather jacket production to their plant in Mexico. I do no not know exactly when they did this.
Has anyone purchased a Mexican made G-1 and can offer insight to the quality and sizing? For numerous reasons I am debating between G&B and...
I know its a shot in the dark but I'm new here and thought I'd give it a whirl. Heres a link to what I'm talking about at Legendary USA

Hey guys, I acquired a G-1 on ebay for a killer deal; but was wondering if there was any way to identify the maker? There are no labels other than the Blood Chit sewn into the inner lining. eBay auction said it belonged to a Navy pilot that served from the late 80s to early 00s. I know for...

I recently sold a Flight Apparel Industries replica G-1, and with the money I got purchased a 1971 D series Star Sportswear G-1, in outstanding condition. It's goatskin, with a Dynal collar. The leather and lining are perfect, with no holes or tears or excessive wear. One cuff does have a rip...
I'm looking to purchase another vintage issued G-1, and I'd guidance on which brands to look for and those to avoid. I know that Irwin B. Foster and Martin Lane are considered better brands, but what about Imperial Leather and Star Sportswear? I have five issued G-1's in my collection (a '69...
I posted about these jackets in another thread, but I wanted to start a dedicated one for the Cockpit G-1 Top Gun Heroes Jacket. I have tried on 3 different sizes so far and took measurements and pictures for everyone's benefit, in case some of you have been contemplating getting one. I can...
