G-1 Navy Flight Jacket

The G-1 was introduced into service in the late 1930's as the official flight jacket of the U.S. Navy and Marine Corp flyers. The BI-swing pleat in the shoulder (which extends down the back to a belted waist) and double gussets under each arm provided for ease of movement in places which had notoriously small cockpits. Our jacket faithfully reproduces the two large Single-entry (double-entry available for no extra charge) button flap pockets, with radiused lower corners and a gently curved flap.
