About This Jacket:
This Rough Wear 18091 A-2 is probably a size 44, as I've seen other 44s and this one is comparable,
just a little smaller than the 46 18091 in this collection. The jacket had a nice russet color, which was over-dyed
for use either in late WWII or after the war, as A-2 jackets were commonly re-issued if they were in good or rebuilt condition. This
jacket has been rebuilt by Flight Suits in 2004, with the lining, cuffs, waistband, and zipper replaced (note that it's an original WWII Talon).
The leather has excellent grain, and it smells quite pleasant with the tanning technique used.
