How we feelin about this one fellas? (Flight jacket yay or nays)
I picked up this G-1 avirex jacket on a whim, mostly cause it was pretty cheap, but now I'm trying it on I'm really not sure if I'm feeling it. Not sure if it's too big, just not my style, or if it just veers a bit close to top gun cosplay. Thoughts appreciated!

Looks great to me, maybe a bit big (particularly the arms) but still fine
To me
The arms are definitely very long, even with the elastic cuffs cuffed back on themselves as they are in the pics haha. I think the overall length is maybe what's bothering me as well? I was expecting more cropped I think
It’s certainly not cropped, do you know how old it is? Reminds me of my fits like 8-10 years ago
And I didn’t notice the cuffs were folded, ya perhaps too long then
No idea how old it is unfort! Got no tags, other than avirex zipper hardware
Likely why it was so cheap...
Flight jacket arms are supposed to be a little long, but they’re also supposed to be cropped
Not feeling the body length on this one
Yeah I think a consensus is forming, haha
Thanks both for confirming my suspicions and doubts, think I'm gonna try and sell this one on then
i have a similar issue with mine, and when i wear it i just wear it zipped up and fold the “waistband” part in so it’s no longer visible. It’s not the most ideal thing but it makes the proportions of the jacket look better on me
the sleeves on mine are long too
