Default Cool jacket

I'm not much into Corvette clothing, but I do wear hooded sweatshirt jackets a lot. This jacket looked cool on the website, and when I got it, it confirmed it. Great quality, has a soft nylon liner, and the embroidery, and appliqués, are impeccable. It may be over the top for some, but here is the LINK

Yeah the patches are a little too much bling for my tastes.

Yeah, that's the "over the top" part.

I pre-ordered mine back in October when they were first announced. Received it the first part of December. I wear mine all the time and get compliments everywhere I go. The patches are pretty cool and are actually one of the things people comment on the most. The jacket is very high quality and is very warm. One tip, turn it inside out when you wash it. Will last much longer this way and resists fading.

Thanks for the info. I guess I should learn what year each flag is in case someone asks.

Mine just arrived in the mail today. The quality is awesome & its very warm. My girlfriend(c5 chick) ordered it for me. It looks alittle busy,but once you put it on it looks much better. I recommend you get a size bigger than you wear. I got the xl and it just fits. I would have gone with the 2xl.
