If you like Eastman Star Sportswear A-2, look also at their Monarch A-2, both are great!I bought it a few months ago. Almost went for the Eastman Star A2, but knew I'd regret not having the badalassi. It's beautifully soft after five minutes of wear. I'll visit the Pop up shop in Shoreditch to have another look at the Eastman A2s.
