Today, an unlabeled 70s G-1.

Noo jajajjaja, that is actually a nice fitting contract.

I’ll snap some more pics. I had a ‘70 Star and this feels more akin to it. Would have never thought it was something earlier. It was a gift to me from a Lounger. A retired Navy flyer with a pretty impressive record of service, though not his issued jacket. He speculated it might have been a D or E series Bill Bros, but I think it’s goatskin. Rather unremarkable pockets, but I’m growing to really like the jacket. I’ll never sell it! That musty vintage smell with a hint of stale tobacco is an aphrodisiac.

Nice G-1, Nick.
He could be right, why not - It could be Brill D, mine too from goatskin.

I envy you guys you wear jackets. It's been hellish heat here for a month now and it's hot even in a T-shirt.
