    Another great Schott jacket LC6301

    I really do not want to bash the jacket for what it is, but continuing the discussion about the Schott name - why do this? The jacket is not made by Schott, is not made in USA and is not made with materials from Schott. So you only use the name without anything that constitutes the name Schott...

    Another great Schott jacket LC6301

    A2 shoulder width - advice needed

    Hi, which original contract/maker models currently offered by the usual suspects (Aero, Eastman, etc) have the shortest shoulder width? I do not like drooping shoulders on my A2 (inasmuch that is possible with that type of jacket). Thanks!

    Hello, thanks for all the kind advice, but already sold the jacket, just wanted to drop in and announce that. Sold the jacket because of pressing financial concerns :), that was the main reason.
