Matt:
That is one beautiful A-2.It looks like its been hanging on your shoulders for twenty years.
Here is one of my buzz Rickson A-2's.This is a repro of a Werber Mfg Co. jacket in a hand "worn out" process. The factory worn finish gives it the appearance of 25 years of wear, though its a new jacket.The Japanese are really sticklers for authentic detail.

Anyone else here have a Sefton?
It's been a while since I posted so I'm hoping some members might have one.
I think I'm ready for one that's a little more fitted.

I used to have a Sefton A-2. It was beautifully made - possibly the best work I have ever seen in a reproduction jacket. Stephen's reproductions of RAF gear and repairs to original gear are exquisite.

A backhanded compliment you could have heard from a 'collector:'
"That's a beauty in spite of all it's faults."
Where's my micrometer, I have to measure the stitching.
You realize they destroyed the zipper tooling so you can't get the real ones anymore.
Are they using horse hide from the WWII cloned animals yet?
Don't get me started on the dying process!
Are you sure that color is to specification, I just don't know.

Egads all the pics are gone. I think I'm going to sell the jacket due to lack of wear and due to my wanting a 40 rather than a 42

Actually it was due to me wanting a hat with higher armholes.
