Is that Fila jacket from the mid-90's or so? Too bad they don't have the same cool look now.

I've seen alot of Fila stuff repro'ed out these days, they must be having a revival.

Try also Sergio Tacchini for similar looks

Pretty sure cielo's Borg jacket is original 80s vintage (he posted on it before). I looked around after his post; ebay prices on originals (i mediocre/poor condition) are high, and the repros don't have all the details (they don't have a relationship with Borg anymore). All of which adds up to me being jealous of cielo.

cheap, that camera has improved your look at least 36%.

Thanks for the comments. As shoreman mentioned, this jacket is from the 70s/80s.

A recent visit to Villains Vault prompted me to break out the red colorway. They have red repros displayed right in front. These are different than any previous repros (i.e. Settantas), as it has a big F patch. This version, without the "**" , was also released under the Borg line in the 80s. The repro looks to be of same quality as the original and has a limited run of 500 with a price tag of $250.

I just sold mine from the 80's for cheap too! Funny how the bottom half of my F fell off ages ago, looks like the top of yours did the same.

Nice Collective was off another sf member, and i had it shortened. So not sure what season it was.

Yeah, only two of my Fila jackets still have paint on both parts of the F.
