    Cockpit USA Goatskin A-2 Review

    Cockpit USA Goatskin A-2 Review

    What Price Glory A-2 Jacket

    With all this talk of "bargain" prices...just ordered a goatskin A-2 2000 from US Wings for $195, and free shipping if you spend an extra 5 bucks.

    What Price Glory A-2 Jacket

    It makes you ask why would anyone spend $500, $600, or more on an A-2 when this one (WPG) looks as good as any I've seen!

    Any fans of WEP jackets

    Agree with the nylon advice. G&B told me this is a much more popular material than the cloth version.

    Bet most of you did not know Jerry had an A-2. Looks to be about two sizes too large for him.

    Full Grain v. Top Grain

    More than one manufacturer has gone to great lengths to explain that their jackets are completely natural, thus some minor marks and/or scars will be in the hide. They almost make it sound like a scar is a badge of honor.

    That is what I thought. That Mick Jagger coat looks like a very loose G-1 derivative of some sort.
