The Cockpit 100 Mission G-1 is an outstanding example of a G-1. The goatskin is tough and grainy with tons of character. What really sets the jacket apart from all others in my opinion is the contrasting rust-colored (versus the previous blonde) mouton collar. My only issue is that most online reviews and descriptions lead you to believe that it's a slim fit garment, which I disagree with. Buy whatever size you normally take in any other G-1, larger if you simply like your jackets to fit roomier. A+ overall.

This 100 Mission G-1 is a tremendous jacket, can't say enough good things about it. It is so well made and the ease of movement makes it a joy to wear. It feels broken in yet brand new as well. with each day I notice Ihat "2nd skin" feel coming on. I ordered one size up as recommended and the fit is fine and if I am not wearing sweater or such I do not feel like I'm swimming around in it. The service and attentiveness from Ace Jackets was excellent. I hope to do more business with them!

Jacket is superb. The quality of leather is better than Cockpit’s regular g1s. Leather is perfectly grainy and thick while being supple. Absolutely love it. However the fit is very small... very. I’m a pretty skinny guy and usually like a 42. I had to order multiple times and settled on a size 46. It’s still slightly snug than I would have liked, but you get the idea. In all honesty I would at least go up at least 2 sizes. I also own the Top Gun jacket and the 100 missions was 1 size smaller than that in comparison. Example: Top Gun in 44 was slightly bigger than the 100 missions in 46. The good thing is, the 100 missions I received had the seam on the front flap on the waist... so I guess they changed it finally. It’s no longer 1 piece.
