Kane Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Gidday All,Am wondering what the jackets that the US military sew their patches of their units etc on are actually made out of. Have a mate and would like to get one for their birthday.Cheers,Kane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunyadi Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Hi Kane - What exactly is he looking for - there are several types - is he looking for a certain period? (WW2 / Korea / Nam??) If modern then there is the dress greens with patches - also the Battle Dress Uniforms (camo uniform) have pathces on them...,materials vary....

Kane Posted December 24, 2006 Author Share Posted December 24, 2006 Am looking for the ones that they wear with their civillian clothes. Not sure if they're military issue but they seem to be the standard amongst them.Cheers,Kane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunyadi Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Hi Kane - are we talking about the 'bomber jacket' with the squadron patches all over them? If you have a photo of one that might help.Merry Chritsmas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted December 26, 2006 Author Share Posted December 26, 2006 Yes I think that's what they said. Do you know where i can get them?Merry Christmas,Kane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunyadi Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 (edited) probably e-bay. But I see these as popular leather jackets made by major clothing manufactureres trying to capture the Tom Cruse "Top Gun" look with pathces that dont mean anything. I have some doubts that real military pilots actualy wear such items that often.here is probably a close example to the real thing....http://cgi.ebay.com/Authentic-NAVY-G1-FLIG...tem190065196775 Edited December 26, 2006 by hunyadi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
