Today for me a G-1 Brill-Bros 7823E (1975)
This is the first "original" I bought 1 year ago, paid too much, when I received it I was very disappointed: not goatskin as in the ad but cowhide, synthetic collar, sound of old sofa with each movement. It was a change from my replicas so beautiful and comfortable!
I wondered if I was going to throw it in the trash and then I decided to patch it to make it mine.
I searched on the net for a seller of Vietnam War insignia, I chose a unit whose patch and history I liked and I stuck all the patches on the jacket: since then I like it!
(in the meantime I acquired its big brother, a magnificent Brill-Bros 68, and it will not be patched ...)
