John Chapman's new Amelia Earhart jacket - NICE!

He is getting ready for the movie release of "Amelia" with Hillary Swank and Richard Geer. (Opens soon)

Cruel, I tell you, cruel! How are we supposed to pay the rent? Eat? Feed our children? Wait...I don't have kids. Anyway, ANOTHER gem. I'm still having arhythmia over the Californian, and, now...

Another reason to visit Seattle next summer.

I agree, his jackets are the quickest way to going brooooke. But they're lovely! I can't wait to see the film when it opens. How is everyone? When I get a chance, I'll post some photos of me in the A2 when it gets chilly enough to sport.

Are the pockets too small and too far back on John's rendition? Or is it just that Amelia was a size 2?

The pockets on the repro are definitely smaller. :!:

The one on the GW site is a 42, so if you consider the difference between it and Amelia's I would say they're about the same, whereas the one pictured earlier in this thread certainly looks to have smaller pockets more on lines of an A-1. Nice jacket and IMO much more interesting and appealing than yet another A-2.

JC can adjust the pocket size and placement to suit anyone's taste.

Yup, that's a beauty. I agree with Miles. Much more interesting than another A-2. Here's a song to go with this thread from one of my favourite bands.
