Finally got my first true A-2 jacket. Since I was a kid, I always wanted a true authentic A-2 jacket. Since I was a teenager, I've owned two really bad repro A-2s and never had the funds for a good quality one. When I got into collecting flight jackets years ago, I was drawn to the nylon and lost interest in leather A-2s. Well, I finally got the urge to dive into the leather world. JC hooked me up with this returned Dubow 20960 size 44. And it fits PERFECT!!!
It does have a stenciled name inside on the liner. No a big issue with me. It also had a leather name tag. I will be patching this up with a good Wright field patch and a J.H. Doolittle name tag to make this a Doolittle Tokyo raider jacket!
Anyone know how to quite these jackets down? These things are noisy when new. Guess I'll be wearing it around the house a while.
