Vintage 1968 Alfa Industries USAF L-2B Flight Jacket Medium

The L-2B Flight Jacket  was issued in the US Airforce in 50s as a replacement of its  predecessor, the blue L-2A. The jet-age was in full swing and as new types of air planes created new requirements for pilot performance, safety and comfort. The nylon jackets became the new standard and flight jackets made of leather became synonymous with the past. 

This jacket could be worn reversed if the wearer would be in a situation were they needed to be visible and attract attention. The zipper has a pull on each side to make it easier to close no matter what side you are wearing facing out.

This is a vintage original produced in 1968 and the condition is just amazing considering the age of the jacket! It also has an original name patch made of leather on the chest and an original Tactical Air Comand patch. The Conmar zipper is original and in perfect condition. The wool cuffs and the waist band are also in great condition for its age.
