easterneagle87 Posted September 19, 2017 Share #1 Posted September 19, 2017 Would anyone please be able to tell me when this Air Force flight jacket was contracted. Patches on it are from the 90's, but it could be older. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doyler Posted September 19, 2017 Share #3 Posted September 19, 2017 To expand on what Bob stated some companies who have contracts will do contract over runs and sell to surplus stores and commecial outlets and mail order catalogs. Some companies just make knock offs with real looking lables.Some with say "TYPE" or "STYLE" which wont appear on real contracts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easterneagle87 Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share #4 Posted September 19, 2017 Just by the "feel" I knew there was something off. Picked it up cheap to take the patches off of. It's going to the daughter anyway, and she can beat the crap out of without digging into "dad's stock". By the late 80's and onward, the issued ones I saw when I was in had a fold over collar and a thicker feel./ Thanks for the reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
