Czech Copy of German Winter Kanaljacke

[theduellist]

First time wearing my new find today. It's (what I think is) a Czech pilot's jacket, made post 1945 (?). However, it is a good copy of a cloth type German Winter Kanaljacke. What attracted me is it's actually my size, so I jumped at the opportunity. It is still in very wearable condition. Thoughts from my esteemed forum-mates requested.

Absolutely unique and cool jacket!

I love that fur-liner in particular ...

Thanks, I definitely agree. What kind of fur? It wasn't a cheap jacket unfortunately, but you often get what you pay for!

I think it’s a keeper. Looks good, fits good, it’s warm, it’s got a history…. Checks all the boxes.

liner and collar both look well warm and actually cool (even though i know that wasn't the reason for you to buy it ...)

Yeah and like Burt said a jacket with history and character!

May i ask for the price and source?
