Do they follow any particular contract for the A-2 or is it their own intepretation?

Aero happy days.

Which color and hide is this one? This is the kind of color my 1756 had...to my eyes this is not really brown but a very dark olive drab.

This I deed helps Vezio, i am a little taller and heavier than you but this is the kind of fit I am looking for. Is that hide smooth or grained? In my life I always wore leather jackets so for me they are the standard casual choice. I agree that A-2s simple construction make them less suitable...

I have been out of the jackets "business" for a while (about ten years) after having collected a decent collection of high end jackets, four of which are Aero (a 30´s half belt bought in 2005 for 250 quid, an highly customized highwman in pull oil HH, a D-1 and finally an Happy Days made with...

Have you ever tried the 741HH? That's a sharp jacket.

Good fit.
