This is a listing for a sage green colored wool knit set. This three piece set includes the collar, waist knits and pair of cuffs.
I had these knits made by special order because I was otherwise unable to reliably obtain correct quaility knits for my work.
Correct to use as replacement and or repair knits for all late 1950's through the 1980's L-2B and MA-1 nylon flight jackets. As seen with some of my restoration work seen within this listing's descriptive images.
Within the descriptive images I've attached examples of both MA-1 & L-2B change outs I've done using these same knits.These knits are 100% wool as originally manufactured. Correct in color, configuration and both horizontal & vertical dimensions for any size (36 through 50) nylon jackets.
These particular knits were made here in the USA & special ordered by me to my specifications (100% long fiber wool & pill resistant) to duplicate those original MA-1 and L-2B jackets. Now utilized for my USAF nylon flight jacket, new builds, repair & restoration work.
Since it required a large minimum order to acquire I currently have more knit sets for my restoration work than I need for the foreseeable future. You are welcome to a set while they last!
Keep in mind that I am an avid vintage jacket collector, restorer and maker. I took it upon myself to I have created the best quality, most accurately USA manufactured replacement knits available for most all original nylon USAF and USN mil spec jackets period.
Please look through my jacket sales at my store. Feel free to contact me David Sheeley with any questions regarding a new jacket build purchase or restoration work in general. Yes, along with my new builds I do take on knit replacement work and alterations in general.
Free shipping via USPS ground with tracking.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
