I agree that buying this jacket for $99 would be way better than a $400 repro from Pakistan. These particular Stars have beautiful grainy goatskin in my experience. The only problem is that awful fake mouton Dynel collar. It never looks right and it always announces a jacket at the end period of quality G-1s.Ok guys … I’m always preaching to buy originals . Well here’s what I would consider a steal . A Vietnam Era Star G-1, in reasonably good condition for seriously cheap money .
Cheaper than any repros out there .
Here ya go … my compliments…

That being said I had a white label Star that I picked up for $40 that was one of my favorite jackets. It was a true wearer. As I get older I'm finding that my 1940s Edmund T Church is a true wearer however. Age has made me brave.
