I have a 1942-1945 Northeaster Flying Togs goatskin jacket that I am interested in selling. Features a built-in heavy leather waist belt, a protective lower-back kidney panel, deep bi-swing "action back" shoulder pleats, and underarm gussets. Also has fully functioning D pocket zipper and coin/lighter pocket. All zippers function smoothly. All original in very good condition. Original solid black fabric lining. Some small hem issues with, the lining at the wrist part of the sleeves. The original cloth woven "Northeaster Flying Togs" neck label is fully intact. The leather is overall in very good condition. No tears in the leather, stitching is still tight throughout. Additionally, the lapel features an authentic, original World War II civilian Homefront Army-Navy "E" Production Award pin (Sterling Silver base), providing definitive historical context to its 1942–1945 origins. I have not decided on an asking price and would definitely appreciate any feedback that anyone might have. I am happy to provide further pics and answer any questions. Thanks in advance!!
