Product History
The
U.S. Navy started making the G-1 leather jacket (originally known as
the M-445 flight jacket) during the Second World War. The jacket was
form-fitted with a longer waist webbing at the bottom, a bi-swing back
for easier arm movement and a Mouton collar. The G-1 used button
closures on the front pockets. It was made until 1978 when Congress
cancelled it due to its popularity and lack of supply. It was produced
again during Desert Storm and is still issued today. Alpha is proud to
make this iconic leather bomber.
