This goatskin leather jacket by Schott is a replica of the standard G-1 flight jacket issued to enlisted Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard aviators in the 1940s. Known to moviegoers everywhere as the flight jacket worn by Tom Cruise and his co-stars in Top Gun, it remains part of the uniform for officers and enlisted aviation personnel in the U. S. Navy.
This replica follows the construction of earlier jackets, with a goatskin shell and sheepskin collar (current uniform issue is usually cowhide with a synthetic collar). The lining, cuffs, and hem are all nylon. Two roomy exterior patch pockets snap shut. Each jacket is individually hand-cut and tailored in the U.S.
Made in the U.S. Goatskin, sheepskin, nylon. Men’s sizes M (38-40), L (42-44), XL (46-48).
Professional leather cleaning only.

Well made good fitting jacket.

Comments about Standard Issue G-1 Military Flight Jacket:
This jacket is very well made and fits me perfectly. The bi-swing cut makes moving your arms up and down very comfortable. Sleeves don't bind. Has an inside pocket accessible just inside the zipper that's very nice. I'll use it for going into town spring and fall. The fur collar is too much in the summer and not removable. No slash pockets for a place to put your hands.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Quality American Made Jacket

Comments about Standard Issue G-1 Military Flight Jacket:
When everything you pick up has a Made in China label it's refreshing to buy a Made In U.S.A. garment that has so much history behind it. My Father was a WW2 Navy Veteran who impressed me to buy American. He's gone but his words haven't lost their impact on me. You will wear this jacket with pride.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
