Vintage LL Bean G1 Goatskin Leather Fur Collar Flying Tiger Bomber Flight US A2 Men's Jacket XXL

Rare vintage LL Bean G1 style jacket with woolpile lining and a real fur collar. This very cool quality classic has a great rugged broken in appearance - guaranteed to make you stand out from the crowd.

The "G-1" military flight jacket is the commonly accepted name for the fur-lined-collar World War II-era flight jacket of the United States Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. A similar jacket used by the United States Army Air Corps/United States Army Air Forces was usually called the A-2 jacket.

Used and in fair to good vintage condition throughout. General abrasion throughout and in particular to the arms and front upper chest area. There is also a patch repair to the right inner arm but due to the position this is quite hidden when worn. Please see all pictures.  

All my vintage listings unless otherwise stated are true vintage and have been worn before, therefore they will typically show signs of wear, which is all part of the vintage look and appeal.

How to choose your size: Please DO NOT solely rely on the listed size for your correct fit.  Designers often use different measurements for sizes depending on the overall look they desire, so sizes can not only vary brand to brand but also within the same brand. Also, for vintage and pre-worn items the shape may have changed after years of being worn. The best way to ensure your correct fit is to compare the measurements listed to an item that fits you well.
