In Reply to: The G8 is interesting... posted by Patterson on July 13, 2000 at 14:14:16:
: : I think that some of the predecessors of the A-2, the A-1 funnily enough, were lambskin. You don't see many of those about anymore. If you check out US Authentic's site they sell what they call a G-8. They suggest that this is the original that the jacket was based on. Stick on A-2 press studs and storm flap and there you have it. Never seen an original G-8 though. Any input Kenal0...?
: But also no Bi-Swing pleat. Very cool jacket though.
: Cheers!

Ahh, this must have come from a G-1...! :)
