Default Corvette Jackets?

Hey Guys,

I've been looking for a nice one for awhile. Picked up the Gray Reebok one and it just feels cheap. Ferrari has these nice, light weight ones made from great material (not sure exactly what it is) and I'd love to get something similar for the vette. I also want something that doesn't look like a barrel on you, slightly fitted / tapered.

Anyone have any experience with them? I don't want something gaudy either, looking at something like one of these:

I bought the mens version of this and can't stand the material / quality:

Im considering picking this one up:

http://www.corvettestoreonline.com/C...cket-Mens.html (though not a huge fan of the corvette on the back)

I also just ordered this one, we will see what it's like.

http://www.corvetteracingstore.com/c...ket-black.html

This looks similar and could be a contender too:

The men's version of this one looks really cool but I can't stand the massive logo on the back -that's just too ostentatious and I think this is the same material as the one I own and don't like.:

Wish I knew what material the others I'm talking are. I'd like something similar to what you get from REI. Kind of flexible material that's very soft and just feels like high quality. I know that's very vague but hopefully someone knows what I'm talking to and has a recommendation.

Thanks Team,

I don't wear leather or I'd take you up on that.

Second one looks great, probably pick that up.

Third one too but man, have you seen the back of it? HUUUUGE corvette log lol. I love the color / design of the front though, take the logo off the back and I'd pick that one up in a heartbeat.

When you buy your new C7, GM sends out a official licensed clothing/ merchandise catalog. I have purchased a few items there.

As long as they don't have pink rhinestones that say "Vette Girl" I like them all.

Check out this one: https://www.corvettemods.com/C7-Corv...et_p_7538.html

It's a Cutter & Buck, expensive ($104.99) and worth every cent. I bought one at the NCM and it's my favorite jacket, bar none.

When it comes to small logos, my computerized embroidery machine (about $400) makes quick work of adding a logo to any jacket, hat, headrest fabric, etc.

If you're tech savvy, you might find this is a good solution.
