Anybody out there own a Cockpit USA G-1? I noticed on their website the color of the collar is a little bit lighter brown, as in this picture:

However, from watching the Youtube video, the jacket, as well as the collar looks very dark, almost black:

Just want to hear from anyone who either owns one, or has seen them in person. Pictures would be nice.
On a similar note, I am also looking at purchasing a Cooper or possibly a G&B G-1. Can anyone comment on the fit/quality of either (or any other brand for that matter)? I'm not looking to spend alot of money, but just looking for a comfortable, proper fitting jacket, preferably from a manufacturer that at one time had a military contract (G&B would be the exception).
