Acme 42-18775-P A-2 Jacket

Leather: chrome-tanned aniline cowhide (heavy feel, about 1.2mm thick)

This jacket is a test model for a new Acme pattern. We took apart an original in rough condition, and
this is how our pattern looks. The design is very common-sense, and quite comfortable in the right size.
The jacket has all the typical Aero features, including the proper mustard cotton lining, red knits,
and light OD green thread. Originals of this contract often had the "R" size tags used, which were
meant for the Aero AAF sheepskin contracts.
Also, there were many original Aero 18775-P jackets that had Conmar zippers, which is why we used this on
the test model. We anticipate a shipment of similar reproduction zippers with both vintage and
reproduction Conmar sliders to arrive soon.
The cowhide is heavy and dense, but still comfortable. The jacket was worn about 7-8 times under very
light conditions, so there is minimal wear to the leather. The grain will only get more pronounced as
the jacket is worn, and the finish will show some scratches, but they can be buffed out wih this style
of aniline finish.
