Before I met B-man 2 and got my first Goodwear A2 I bought a sale 44 HH A2.
Well there was a mistake, and I just got it a couple weeks after I got the GW.
After listening to you guys here (dont bother opening it, Just send it straight back, etc etc)
I was expecting a pot holder. Well to be honest looking at the two side by side, Sauls
jacket is pretty nice. You can see the quality difference. But let me say I bought a sale jacket.
It was $285. Its heavier than the GW by a pound. The GW I got from bman2 already had some
style to it and the USA is new. But its a very nice coat. Its much heavier. ALmost a mid weight
as opposed to a light weight flying jacket. It reminds me more of a motorcycling jacket in thickness.
I think its a nice alternative if you cant afford the $1600 for a GW, I think the $480 USA is not a bad choice
and even better at $285 shipped which is what I got.
I think if you put these two together to a newbie they might pick the wrong coat. If you showed
some one these two and said one is $1600 and one is $1000 they might understand but its hard to
see $1000 difference. I have two more GWs coming in tomorrow. But I am a newbie only started this
in Nov so what do I know?
