Field Notes

Originally issued during World War II as a successor to the M-422A jacket, this rarer horsehide variant of the G-1 was developed for both the US Army Air Corps and the Navy. Constructed from vegetable tanned, pigment dyed bronco hide, the jacket boasts a smoother texture and a more balanced lustre than the goat-skinned variant. Key features of the AN-J-3A include: 'U.S' initialisation on the collar, shearling sheep mouton collar, bi-swing action back, rayon lining, and mil specs Urea buttons.
