It’s comfortable, just feels a little blousy. It is size 46 and apparently a Platon Dubow. Comparing it to Platon’s website, the details seem to match, but I don’t know if there is a definitive way to confirm it. Supple leather and excellent zipper (no snagging which I do get on my GW m422).
A 46 Platon is what I have on order. Hope it fits(if it ever shows up). That’s the biggest they make.

A rather unconventional “jacket” (It has sleeves and a zipper, and is worn over clothing, so I’m insisting it’s a jacket) worn by @mulceber yesterday!
Aye, it even has collar hooks. :D The zipper is a cheap YKK number. Might have to swap it out. On the plus side, the sleeves are rather baggy, like a Dubow, and it's relaxed enough to qualify as a wartime fit. It's also warmer than an A-2, so on that level (if nothing else), it's passable as flight gear. ;)

In all seriousness though, thanks all. It was a lovely day of celebration.

Okay, I'll be curious -- what degree Campus King?
(see -- sorta' like "Cooler King," but more fitting for the occasion ;))
