Default Jacket

I'm sure it is custom-made but where might I find a jacket similar to the one that JBJ is wearing in the photo below? Frankly, I'm not even sure what kind of jacket it is... but I like it!

Thanks for your help.

It'll more than likely be a custom made jacket just for Jon. You might be able to find something similar, somewhere. Ask the man himself.

It wouldn't be to hard finding a military inspired jacket like that one. They are all over the exclusive lines.

btw. Why wouldn't he wear a jacket like that, Maria?

I thought "we" Liked the 80s

I have jacket similar too jons but mine is all black and with leather details.. Kind of cool, but I hardly ever wear it!

I don't like those camouflage pants.. it reminds me of the big guy in A team!
