Vintage Military Jacket Appraisal

Olive Green Bomber Jacket with Horse Patch

The item is an olive green bomber jacket, designed for casual wear. It features a quilted or padded exterior in a slightly sheen fabric, giving it a subtle lustrous finish. The jacket has a classic bomber silhouette with a ribbed knit collar, cuffs, and hem, all in black, providing a contrasting element to the main body color. The interior lining appears to be a soft, light grey fleece or faux shearling material, suggesting it is designed for warmth. The front closure is a center zipper, and there are two flap pockets at the waist, secured with snaps. One notable distinguishing feature is a circular embroidered patch on the left chest area (when worn), depicting a yellow stylized horse emblem within a black circle, surrounded by text that is difficult to fully decipher but appears to start with 'ARAB' at the top and 'AMERICAN' at the bottom, possibly indicating a brand or theme. The jacket is shown on a clear plastic hanger, suggesting it has been pre-owned or is from a retail environment. A 'GOODWILL' price tag is attached, indicating a size 'L' and a price of $6.99, which further confirms its status as a second-hand item. No significant visible damage, tears, or stains are immediately apparent from the image, but being a used item, minor wear and tear consistent with its age and previous use should be expected. The stitching appears regular and consistent, characteristic of mass-produced apparel. The brand label inside the collar, though largely obscured by the price tag, appears to be an ornate, possibly black label with white or silver lettering, potentially 'American Eagle' or a similar brand, indicating its manufacturing origin and style period which is likely contemporary, from the 21st century.
