original or repro (eastman leather)
One piece back. Rather the 40's style, tight body, not the puffed
bulkystyle. Wearable.

As I know A2 sizes can differ:
I am 5'10 (1,82 m), would normally wear 42,
shoulders 19-20", arm length 24,5",
so an old 44 or modern 42, I guess…

I just purchased a nice 42 goatskin Aero repro off of eBay, but feel it's a bit too small for me across the chest, and am considering flipping it for a 44. I am 5'10" as well, and the last time I bought a suit (a few years ago) I was a 42 regular. I've grown a bit since then, and weigh about 210 now. For me the jacket binds a bit more than I'd like across the chest.

I realize we're pretty close in size, so this might not be a good candidate for you either. Still, if you'd like, I'll take measurements and post some pics tomorrow after work.

Let me know if you'd like more information.
