At last someone took care of that.

I don't know about spot on, (the corners are more round and the flap shorter on the original) but it does look very good, don't get me wrong!

Good work. I did notice last year that the Smithsonian jacket's pockets are not piped at the top of the flap. You can see it in the photo.

It does look very close, but, I'm afraid, not indistinguishable!

I find it amusing that as hard as the makers try, they never seem to get the pocket shapes 100% spot on! Why is it so difficult? We have very good reference photos...

On the other hand, my Wested LC (which has hopelessly inaccurate pockets) varies between left and right. Now, the hero jacket probably had non-matching pockets, too.....

It is pretty close.
