This jacket was made for a customer, but was just a bit too small in the chest. A second jacket was made that fits well, and this one is now for sale. Rough Wear A-2s are classic in design and detail.

This one is made with Italian horsehide that's 1mm thick, and has a semi-aniline russet finish. The lining is dull orange, knits mid-brown wool, and the thread is dark brown. About half of the 1401-P contract was done with dark brown thread, as the earlier 18091 contract was made with.

The zipper is a reproduction Crown chain with a vintage Crown slider on it. The snaps in the pockets are original 1943 produced United-Carr Anzos that are exactly what original Rough Wears had installed in WWII. That snap design was started around 1905.

The jacket was only tried on, so it has no regular wear time.

The jacket would ideally fit someone in the range of 5'11" to 6'1", with a chest of 42" to 44", and a weight of about 180-205 pounds.
