Thought I would post some pics of my project I've been working on. For some time I have wanted to have a copy of a original 95th Fighter Squadron patch that I have in my collection. After weighing the options, I decided to go with Roberto from the forum. All I can say is that his patches are extroardinary. If your looking for a tooled leather patch or anything related to the 15th AAF, Roberto is the man. Then came the decision what jacket to put these beautiful patches on. I settled on my pre production Goodwear Dubow. It's a jacket that I really like. Since I'm sure I'll be asked, the hide is steer, and as last I heard is no longer available. The leather is around 2.5 oz. and the color is dead on to my originals. The knits are the perfect berry color as well. Enough talking, here's the pics!
BTW: I haven't had the patches stitched on the jacket yet. Can't wait to wear it!
Thanks Roberto and J.C.!!!

Shots of the Goodwear Dubow. Flash brought out the leather color better, but made the lining look much more orange than it is in person.
