To be honest, it looks quite good just the way it is. I wouldn't do anything to it. How have the years treated it so far? I would imagine that by now the "accordioning" in the sleeves has set in, with the net result that they are shorter. From my monitor, that looks like a good fit overall.
Thanks for that but I sure I not got no fit pics anywhere I waiting for my 12yr old to take some so u can see some soon but your right I think it's at least 25 years old and I not sure what type of leather it is

Sup Art,
Sweet looking goat Cable. That's so cool you have it patched up to represent a Korean War era A-2.

Thanks Grant yeah attribute that to Josh he had it all ready done and I got him to add 2 names to the front , thing is it's a 42 a 40 woulda been better as the cut of this elc cable is airy in the arms and not as fitted as I like but I do need to gain a little weight and I can wear a hoody and stuff and still be very comfortable I not so sure I can do that in my new star that I love and is cut superb for narrower frame like mine ...pics to come

Loving the movement...shhshh I'd say live and let live I'd simply say ... Being honest I've only had it a month and the weather in London's been to good to wear a jacket god damnit it but it's been McDonald's a couple of times and my kids have obviously said DaaaaaD about it but I'm happy to hold their hands and my head held high with it on... It's a tribute jacket to marrylyn if they really wanna get in to it

Good looking jacket with great art work. Well done for wearing it!

Just to be picky, shouldn't the shoulder insignia be U.S. AIR FORCE ?

Well I've relayed that to the artist as he prefers to be period correct ... Nice one for the info hopefully they were both used unless their could be an iron on decal underneath

Love the paint job!!
But I have to ask........Do you get hassled by women of the “#me-too movement” for sexual harassment when you wear your jacket out and around??
Only the ugly ones are in this ”mee too “ movement, they dont like comparisons...so no worries Art..
Superbe jacket/fit/Artwork...
Love all Korea related stuff, since I live there most of the year...
Enjoy it!
