And who knows, I still have 2 rooms here that are empty 8x5 square meters and 2x3 square meters, and you’re right, I still need a big closet for my jackets

Burt, that is a killer stable of A-2’s. 3 like that and it’s game over.
20960 is killer and a beautiful addition. One of the sharpest A-2 contracts no doubt.

Inspired by some most distinguished gentlemen, showing their Irvins here recently, I have decided to wear my 1942 pattern out as well today for a dinner date with the missus...

100%,,it would be ripped to shreds in seconds, offer no protection whatsoever. The irvin is warm but certainly not for riding. I know some have done it,I see dafties riding with no gloves,shorts and sandals, thanks but no thanks.i don't care how hot it get,it's not happening.

Looks great! A totally wearable original- one of my grails. I like your old style late 60's patched pants! Overall just perfect.

Yeah I second Zu, Grant. This is one badass original.
Also reminds me how well WWII goat ages… still beautiful and still looks indestructible.

For sub 0°C ??? I found very effective modern commando sweater, 100% acrylic very effective 'cause very tight knit fabrics and also quite thine anough to be comfortable in the A2. But at that price , I would not say no to try that heated vest .My solution for wearing your A2 almost year around, and it works better than anything I’ve found .

Just took our pups for a "walkabout" to the back of our property.
As it's sunny and cold here, I wore my ATF B-10 over a Flying Tigers t-shirt I bought at the USS Midway gift shop a while ago.
Right after this, I finally pulled the trigger on the MASH made AAF insignia transfers for this and some spares for future projects. This has always been one of my favorite feeling jackets but the lack of the AAF meatball has been an annoying detail that ATF never put on, due to all the "Bandwagon of Brothers" (E/1/506 PIR) re-enactors who wanted a naked sleeve for their 101st AB patches...

Yup, good eye! IMHO the RMC C-2 is far superior to the Buzz reproduction in knit and fit.

Thanks Grant! That's what I was assuming based on the zip.
BTW...if anyone is in need of the navy blue civilian version, there's a size 42 currently on eBay.
