This is a Men\'s pre-owned XL Bomber Jacket ordered as a Tall version (longer torso and sleeves). It was used as a corporate pilot uniform jacket. The aviation department was shuttered after purchasing this. It has been in storage since. Worn less than 5 times, thus in excellent-like new condition. Here is a description from Authentic Apparel Company about the jacket. It is identical to this description except for 3 special features-1) a 2 pocket-in-one feature that only the Sporty\'s licensed version carried for a short time.
