About This Jacket:

This jacket dates to 1991 and is a loose copy of a WWII jacket. This was from a limited series that were based on one original jacket from WWII, and they're hand painted, costing about $800 new. I've seen the original jacket that they're copying this from, and it's quite close. The leather does have a little texture, and is thinner like original Poughkeepsie jackets, and with the hot water technique it looks quite good. Overall, it's a fun jacket to try out, though not very authentic in the design of the body (shoulders and arms are quite large).
