The classic US Navy flight jacket, the G1. This style evolved from the WW2 era M422A and would be worn through to the late 80s. This is possibly the best and most sought after contract of the G1, the 1951 Monarch. Monarch would only make a single G1 contract, and these early designs are considered to be the best and most desirable. It comes with a beautiful VC-33 Knight Hawks patch to the chest and came with a HU-2 patch in the pocket which I'll include.
Condition
This is in amazing condition, like almost perfect. There is one tiny pull to the waist and some surface dirty, but otherwise it's not far off deadstock. This would be virtually impossible to upgrade.
