Thanks, everybody for comments. Yes I'm glad to see the jacket become better.
But I hope he will develop a nice patina but not wear too fast anyway.
There are already signs of wear where it rubs.
@Skanstull no, it's not. In fact it was also an impression due to the fact I'm not used to wear A-2.
I'm well with a sweatshirt underneath.

I was waiting until until I had my 5th AF. Patch added and the sleeves shortened a few inches but here you go: some quick and dirty pics. When I’ve had the alterations made I will post more/better pics.

About Shawn can't tell you, I talked with him by Facebook Messenger, let try to send an other email or via Facobook or by Whatsapp.
About wear at pits. The picture is the most important side. The other is lighter. But inside the collar also. Let see how it does evolve.

Hi everyone,
Looks like I missed a lot of contributions from you guys, but I dont know why my VLJ Notifications were off, even on the web I don't received any notification alerts but I was receiving them before.. This thing is strange here.
I will study all the information which I need to answer here.
Best Regards
Shawn

Hi Everyone
I want to share an old A-2 Which I received from Mr. Frederick, I dont know How exactly old this jacket is but have a very nice leather in HH, and customers wish was to make a seal brown colour on this jacket. He was deeply in love with his jacket and requested to make this wearable, So how we received it and how we make this new like please find some of its images below
Our Customer dye this manually on a Tub, its dye was not penetrated and was only on its uppersurface even that was not fixed, and different areas were damaged colour and have scratches without wearing this
That what I received from Mr. Frederick A Willies and Geiger A-2 Jacket With below Label
If anyone here can explain how old is this jacket and if the Contract is real or not please post
Its Colour was fadding with rubbing with a fabric its image is below
So I suggested Mr. Frederick that its dye color is not proper also not fixed we need to remove that all from its surface and need to develop new dye and colour to fix this, so first we remove all the colour from this below is an image which is explaining how we remove all the colour from each and every part by hands, this takes two days to remove all the previous colour and after removal of old unpenetrated dye colour results were below
