AIR FORCE ONE US PRESIDENTIAL SEAL LEATHER CUSTOMIZED OBAMA FLIGHT JACKET 44R
Item History & Price
NEW WITH TAGS, SIZE 44R
Offered for sale is this lovely and very impressive facsimile Air Force One leather bomber style jacket just like the one custom made for president Obama with an elasticized rib-knit waistband. Custom made in all aspects unique and one of a kind. The jacket features custom lettering designed for the jackets to stop it from copying. Re-creating the typeface for this jacket was very difficult. The jacket features the text Air Force One embroidered over the... modern official presidential seal patch.
The process starts with a blank US Air Force issue Cockpit Goatskin Brown Leather Bomber Jacket. Then we sew the official presidential seal patch to the right breast and get the jacket ready for embroidery. Embroidery starts with a digital vector graphic which features the custom name and the text Air Force One which is modified to the standards of the official jackets on AFO. The text is converted to an embroidery file which can be processed by the embroidery machine. The jacket is tightened and the text is stitched out to the jacket. And in the end, we end up with the finished custom jacket. By far the most difficult part of this entire process is the modification of the text as it may take up to 2 hours to perfectly modify the existing font to match the one on original jackets.
What makes this item truly special is the superlatively well-rendered embroidered, 4.1" diameter official modern Presidential seal patch that is mounted over the right breast. Richly embroidered from top quality colored silk threads, it has been custom manufactured to an 'Old-World' standard of quality and excellence seldom encountered today. Each intricate detail of the noble and historic official Presidential seal has been faithfully replicated in all respects. The fletching on the Eagle's wing, for example, is picked out in brown thread and a 3-dimensional effect is to be observed when examined at close range! Even exceptionally subtle details like the tiny talons on the claws that clutch a bundle of Arrows and an Olive branch can be clearly seen. The high artistic quality of this crest has to be viewed in person to be truly appreciated; my scans simply do not do it justice!
On the left breast is a custom made light brown leather patch with the text COMMANDER IN CHIEF in the US military typeface used on all leather name tags, Franklin Gothic. Above that, it features the name of the President and above the name a gold foil stamped customized presidential seal.
In 2019 President Trump gifted Prince Philip an Air Force One jacket. It is unclear if it was a blue jacket or a leather jacket.
This is an issue Cockpit Goatskin Brown Leather Bomber Jacket, the same one used in the Air Force. This unique and beautiful item would make a worthy addition to a discriminating collection of Presidential memorabilia. The jacket was custom made for President Obama and is one of a kind and would certainly draw attention from onlookers in public.
