SACRAMENTO CA, USA, 95841. THIS LISTING IS FOR ONE (1) U. Air Force Pilots Coat / Bomber Jacket. Preowned vintage.

The outside leather is dark and gently worn with some signs of normal wear; including light cracking (in areas) and scuffing at the pocket openings. The inside (body and sleeves) is fully lined with plush shearling. Shearling is paneled with hidden stitching and shows normal wear. Large slash side pockets. Collar adjustable belts with buckles and metal grommets. Waist adjuster belts with buckles and metal grommets. Cuff adjustable belts with buckles and metal grommets.
