U-Boat crew leather jacket, Spearhead Militaria

[Creeping Past]

Interesting looking jacket being offered by Ebay seller barrylyndon28 in his shop, Spearhead militaria, but the way the leather's folding/hanging it looks to be worth just about the money.

Aside from its being a cheapie, is this an accurate repro? I've seen U-Boat-type jackets with two rows of buttons, but not with a single row.

Been looking at those... he does a couple of jackets/coats- goatskin should always be good.

Thanks. I'm not too sure about leather, hence my overly sceptical eye. I saw thin stuff and thought cheap. I guess Chinese goats are as good as any others...

EDIT: Okay, on accuracy of repro, I've just seen your U-Boat jacket post.

Tune in next time to see if I'll ever learn to search before asking...
