Hi gentlemen!!


I’m selling this superb U.S. Navy G-1 jacket, of the MIL-J-7823B series from 1963, size 42. The item is in pristine condition, I bought it for myself, but I have already a Star Sportwear G-1’s that fits me perfect, so this one will fund another project!


The Goatskin leather is supple with a beautiful graining and an amazing chrome tanned method smell. The genuine mouton collar is intact and has started to develop a beautiful rusted color. The lining is spotless with no signs of use.

Blackened Conmar zipper, which operates perfectly.

THE BEST PART IS both CUFFS and WAIST BAND are ORIGINAL and in PERFECT condition! They are really, really stretch!!!


This is the Real Deal if you are looking for a condition Vietnam Era flight jacket!!!


Jackets in this condition are quite rare, and this size is also hard to find. This Navy G-1 contract is the same one as the recent auction of President John F. Kennedy's G-1, which sold for $570,000.00.

Still hesitating a bit about selling it, but otherwise it’s going to be hanging in my closet!


Measurements:

Tag size: 42

Shoulders: 19’’

Chest: 22.5’’

Sleeve: 26.5" (along the outer curve of the sleeve)

Length:25.5 ‘' (back, from bottom of collar)

Price: 790 $us + shipping

Note: there is a tiny tear (1 inch) on one of the flaps inside behind the zipper, not noticeable at any time, and doesn’t affect any function.
