About This Jacket:
This jacket is an earlier Eastman reproduction of Star's contract A-2. The leather used is quite
good, looking like many original jackets and having veg tanned qualities (scuffs easy and shows wear). The overall cut is quite accurate
to Star jackets that I've seen, especially the collar and the pocket design. Overall as a 42 is about the same as an original, not larger
like some Eastmans have been. The lining has a strong reddish color as Star jackets did. Details such as the original WWII Talon zipper
are a great touch.
