fyi: i purchased an elc redskin from this guy, and in top of the line condition. one of the best buys i have ever made. hes in mexico, and shipped the jacket [with the original box], to me in ny, usa, in a weeks time.

Looks like it might be one of ELC's early redskin B-3's with the NOS Talon zip.

 

[Silver Surfer]

yup, and it looks minty to boot.

I don't like them they look like plastic, sorry. The early ones from the early 90's were more brown with a more subtle look. I think Wingrove and Edge used to plate these for Eastman. The current ones are an in house finish.

Mine is almost four years old and definitely doesn't look like plastic.

Grant,
I must have got a duff one then as I was even once asked if it was plastic.
The one's Aero used to sell were the same.
This one is a nice colour -

Here's my very old one before they went very red -

That must have cut deep!

 

[Silver Surfer]

plastic? hmmm..... u mustave got the one off. mine has the proper look, with lotsa mottling and if ya look at it for a moment or two, has areas that are almost transparent, so that u see colors underneath... and as it ages, looks better, and better, and......arguably, one of the finest repros made. period.

 

[Grant]

Yep, couldn't agree more.
Throwing mine on now and heading out the door.
