    Can you show me your US Authentic A-2s

    I have two A-2's from them, one in HH 50R and the other Goat 46T. Love them both. I gave my son the 46T. I have a G-1 from LW and a HH A-2 from them as well. IMO goat is a better "everyday" leather jacket. It looks good. Wares nice and has a good drape and such. USA jackets do have a slightly...

    Does washing/soaking leather jackets substantially harm them or weaken the leather?

    Jacket looks good. To bad about not having the before pics.

    New jacket purchase (Indy)

    Your jacket looks great. I have been debating about getting another Wested. That Novapelle is very nice. I have a Wested in Lamb. I also have one from Nowak.

    The eagle has landed !!! New Aero 30's Half Belt :)

    Very nice jacket indeed. I think you made the right choice in keeping the checkered lining.

    U.S. Authentic (FlightJacket.com) Opinions?

    i own 2 I have 2 of jackets from them. Both are A-2's, one in HH and the other in goat. I really love the feel and smell of the goat. The sleeves are a little tight and narrow on the forearms though. It is a size 46T. The HH is russet in color and is a 48R. The fit is better and the sleeves are...

    A-2 GOATSKIN JACKET

    I own several goat hide jackets. LW G-1, Star Sportswear G-1, Foster G-1 and USA Authentic A-2. The Sportswear and Foster are over 25 years old and look fantastic. The USA A-2 is 3 years old and I love the color and feel of their jackets. For an entry level A-2 theirs is hard to beat. US Wings...

    Clooney's LEATHERHEADS jacket (pics from a changing room!)

    The jacket does look a lot like an Aero. It does have a belt of some sort on it. You can see the buckle just under the cleat hanging over Mr. Clooney's right arm. I think you are paying for the Bellstaff name with the jacket that Paddy is describing and, as suggested by Graemsay, just ask Aero...

    **NEWS EXTRA**Good Wear flying jackets take vintage authenticity to new heights!!

    I had one of JC's. Loved the color, smell, and look. I just can't measure and had to part with it. There is another in the not so distant future. That is a great looking, fitting jacket. I hear about cooler weather. I hope it comes soon so we can all enjoy our jackets.

    GREAT AERO half belt thread.

    Well if you are stuck on an Aero, get a hold of Mark at Aero USA and talk to him. He can help you decide what jacket would be best for your purposes. He is a wealth of info and gets back to you PDQ with you answers.

    How much thicker/heavier are the hides on Lost World jackets than other companies?

    I own two LW jackets. A G-1 in dark seal goat and a russet HH A-2. The A-2 will keep you warm in 40F weather and keep the wind / rain off your back as well. I wish we had longer, colder wetter days just to help break in the jacket. The leather is heavy, but not uncomfortably so but it is a...

    g-1 leather jacket

    I was lucky enough to find an original early 70's G-1 in my size (yes, it is a 48). I also have a LW G-1 in seal goat. Great jacket as well. With a little patience you can get what you want on e-bay or maybe a member on here or VLJ will have one for sale to help pay for another one. you could...

    In search of a tough as nails shearling jacket, advice needed.

    I have two of their jackets. One is a goat A-2 and the other a Russet HH A-2 and both are great jackets if you are not a stickler for authenticity. But you know you should always shop around and try not to settle; get what you want and not what others want you to get.

    In search of a tough as nails shearling jacket, advice needed.

    At Flightjacket.com they have a M-444 you might consider or their ANJ-4. Both are under 800.00 USD and they can do custom work for you sleeve length. Just another option for you to look into.
