It looks like they have discontinued this Jacket at U.S. Wings. They have put 4 or 5 on eBay for $169 (starting bid). Is this a good jacket? I have just placed my order with Flightsuits 1 month ago for the goatskin. If this is a good jacket - I might have to get this one as well. Your thoughts...

I personally do not like US wings. Some agree some dont on this topic. I feel the customer service is lackluster, the prices are way too high for what you get, and the jackets are only so accurate. I would give US wings a 6 out 10.
If you have placed an order for a Flightsuits, stick with that, it is a far superior jacket. If you feel like you want another jacket, check out Wested!!

Best regards

Company feelings aside, the VIP is indeed a good jacket. One of my favorite cowhides out there. Sorry to hear they're dropping it. It's a French leather, and sometimes difficult to obtain. Regards. Michaelson
