I have a mid-1990s USN issued G-1 leather jacket that I'm looking to trade for a slightly larger size.

Overall condition is good. I would be darn near "excellent" if it weren't for the "modifications" done by a previous owner: the zipper wind flap was cut off and the velcro patch was also removed. The leather on the bottom of the arms near the cuffs shows some wear, but is otherwise great.

The knit cuffs and waistband are all in good condition. The liner and collar are both tip-top, too.

I love the jacket, but I'm too fat for it. I'd simply like to trade this size 42 jacket for another G-1 in size 44 or 46.

I'll pay the shipping for both if anyone is interested.

Leather wear on the bottom of the left cuff. The knit looks good, though.

Slight wear on bottom of right cuff, and condition of the knit.

A bump to the top a year on to see if anyone's interested this winter.

I also have a USAF A-2 in size 42 that I'm looking to trade up sizes to 44 or 46, as well.

Thanks!
