    Aero A-2 and more......

    One of the best A-2 fits around. But it's hard to keep my head 90 degrees to the right to see them properly. ;)

    real mccoy jacket sizing

    If the jacket is from Real McCoy's Japan, I think you should try size 40 to get the 38's fit by the western standard. Japanese sizes tend to run small, like their medium actually fits like small of the US and European size, for example. Japanese A-2 size 40 fits me best chestwise (not the sleeve...

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    I ended up purchasing both models(9016 and 8111), and I believe you should/will, too. :) Both look great especially when worn with vintage jeans and chinos. Sizing is amost the same for both models. Cannot add really much to previous comments, but I'd say BM's leather feels quite stiff, so...

    Got my first A-2, is it too big???

    So am I! :( It's not always easy to find either loose 38 or tight 40, unless you pay a visit to the store and try them on.

    Got my first A-2, is it too big???

    I too hated the tunnelling on the sleeves of my A-2s so much that I ended up selling off all my size 40s and converted to 38s. As 40 is really my size for comfortable fit with a room for extra layer underneath, it's indeed a little tight around torso, but it looks much better on the sleeves and...

    A-2 sizing

    Japanese made A-2s tend to fit better for asians, as far as I can tell. In terms of chest size it looks like you're good to go with either 36 or 38, but 38 may have the right length for your height. And with 38 you can have some room to layer a sweatshirt under the jacket.

    Hangers... Do you hang your leather jackets on them?

    I'm not quite sure about keeping an A-2 jacket laid flat on the floor or inbetween other jackets stacked in the closet - one of the secondhand A-2s I've previously owned had the back of its collar curled up outward, and it didn't look good at all. The original owner said it was due to keeping...

    Which repro A2s do you currently own?

    Thanks for the kind words. :) The boots are Redwing's Iron Ranger and the chino trousers from GAP, FYI.

    Which repro A2s do you currently own?

    RW 23380 (Airborne ver.) by The Real McCoy's Japan RW 16159 by The Few Mfg. w/ A-10 winter gloves Both are size 40, but the 16159's roomy enough to wear a sweatshirt underneath.
