I used "bomber" as I spotted that some forum users especially "like" when g1 flight jackets are called "bomber" . The interesting thing here is a different size marked on the label. Nice and clean example, a real bargain but no windflap! Requires a minor work for knits, probably not a very desired contract DLA100-86-C-0481, but a genuine vintage g1 from the 80's.

Receipt in pocket from professional leather clean and refinish in 1998, likely hasn’t been cleaned since but leather looks very good. Leather is firm and semi stiff. Professionally altered to size 46, originally a size 48.
