That one might work for you Scott - isn't it a 48?

Bseal's olive A-1 made by GW.

 

[ButteMT61]

OH DAMN!!!
Post measurements please?

 

[SuinBruin]

That olive A-1 is so close to a 37J1 I did a double take....

The A-1s are nice, but you definitely have to have a nice pliable leather to really pull off the look.

This is very soft and comfy from 40s to in the 70s.

To dmar;
what type of leather was used on this A-1 ?

 

[dmar836]

Steve sourced the hide and had JC make it. I think it's cape or similar soft sheep/kid but he would have to answer that one.

Well, showed it to the wife. Maybe I was hoping she'd hate it, but no dice. It's close in size. Possibly a tad too large now, but close. This is going to land me in a mental institution. :lol:

I really think A-1s look pretty cool a bit baggy.

We'll see. I love that jacket. Just don't want to be baggy. In spite of the cool factor

[Dr H]

Hmm...I did, until I realised that it is leather
Odd choice of colour :?

Yeah, it is. My wife wants me to buy it. I'm working on convincing myself to see if it will work. I hesitate 'cause I think it will be too baggy, but the pics keep me hoping it will fit.

 

[Dr H]

Go on Scott, you know it makes sense!

 

[Persimmon]

I like it a lot.
I wish it was a smaller size.

It will look great on for sure
