Thanks for the input guys. Good Wear is off my list; the wait time is simply far too long. Would love to see fit pics of anyone in their M-422A.
Follow the link I posted earlier in this thread. It has photos of me wearing a vintage WW2 M422, a Good Wear repro M422 and a BK repro M422.
The first set of photos is the vintage Edmund T Church M422.
The second, the Good Wear.
The third set, the Bill Kelso.
Another manufacturer to check out is Aero Leather;

They slipped my mind entirely as I don't think of my Aero as a M422.
I have a variation of their M422 design...sans mouton collar...that is very nice.
Good quality leather, well made.
Waiting time generally seems to be around 6-8 weeks as I recall.
Will custom make their jackets to your measurements (as does Good Wear).
