I just got my custom made Flying Tigers jacket.  I must say, man, this is nice.  It's so nice having a jacket that actually fits me (I'm a little on the short side).  A few of my friends were impressed (as was I) when I told them how very quick and reasonably price you guys are.  I just wanted to compliment your company and let you know I plan to get a second jacket made in a couple of weeks.  Thank you.

Flying Tigers G1 by Jack Manick

I have had my G1 Flying Tiger Jacket for 2 years and I love it more each minute that I wear it. The quality of workmanship of this custom made jacket is incredible.  I have gotten may complements and comments from strangers. The best were from men who were in the China/Burma/India Theatre during the war and who caught a glimpse of what they once wore and had to come over to say something to me. I had one lady who was from Taiwan complement the China flag on the blood chit and who said it made her homesick.  

    Thanks again for a great jacket.

I'm dropping you a note to say thank you for the excellent jobs which you have done with all the jackets which I have ordered from you.Flying Tigers A2,

 I like this jacket because the Flying Tigers are a part of my Chinese heritage. It was quite surprising that the lettering on the blood chit was so well done. Also, nice job on 2 inside custom pockets.G1, Although this was a "simple" jacket, it was manufactured and put together with quality workmanship. I especially like the custom collar which you made for me.M444, What can I say? The artwork was fantastic and the jacket is superbly warm. Too bad that its not that cold year round here in Southern California. From the quality materials that was used, I think this jacket should last me a lifetime.G8, I think this is the best work you've done so far. The G8 is light enough to wear on those cool mornings, and with the custom wool liner which you made for me, it should keep me toasty warm in the winter. I especially enjoy the artwork which you have drawn for me. The Jolly Rogers' emblem is excellent! I believe you're the only one on the web that offers this particular item for sale.I have received many compliments for all the jackets which I have purchased from you. If I may, I will send you as many potential customers as I can. I feel that you have done an outstanding job in the manufacture of all these jackets. Additionally, I feel that you have created an atmosphere that makes the customer feel comfortable when shopping from your web site.

FLYING TIGERS JACKET by Jack Baringer

I received my Russet horsehide AVG A-2 last week and I am completely satisfied with the great fit, un-compromised high quality and authenticity of the your product. Additionally, your representative spent a great deal of time patiently helping me to determine the correct size for my jacket. His assistance was invaluable, and I love my new A-2. I have another Goatskin A-2, handmade by an individual, that I purchased over 20 years ago. Amazingly, it still looks like new; and I look forward to enjoying my Flying Tigers A-2 for the next 20 years! Thanks again for your fine product and great customer service! I will not hesitate to recommend your firm to my friends and associates who have admired my new coat.
