Who made my D1??

[oldskoolonly]

Its the 1st day of summer here and my latest jacket. a second hand D1 finally arrived from the UK. I obviously wont be wearing it for a while but I would like to know who made it? I picked it up for a song, so im not too bothered that is most likely from no name manufacturer but In all honesty it seems like a pretty good thing, aside from the fact that the tag is dodgy and says its a B3 :?
Its an older jacket, the Zips are Talon and seems to be made quite well.....
Anyhow, any clues???

Cheers

Looks pretty good. That yolk below the collar reminds me of an Aero jacket.

I have seen identical tags from B-3s made out in the Middle East. Sadly I can't tell you which seamstress worked on your D-1... :lol:

I had the same jacket and traded it for an Aero B-3 .
Ken told me it was Italian. Mine had nice skin but was a lousy pattern as the armholes were wrong and there was no give for arm movement.

Yeah, that looks like it, minus the care and made in tags!

Who knows, maybe there was a special on that particular tag once upon a time...... :lol:
