no worries, they've been with me a long time and are happy in my closet. I'm just looking to off load some of the military stuff, getting into the regular vintage type HH stuff, fits better for me now.

Lost weight? Do tell. Or just a change in interest?

gained weight and dont have the time to lose it, plus a change in interest. after i got the one from you, now i have the moto-utility bug. i'm keeping a couple of my favorite ones just in case i lose the gut, right now i'm driving a desk full time with a 4 hr commute, no time to excercise.

Sounds like me. But only 2.5-3 hours in the car. I do love utility jackets too. What are you looking at? And once the OP answers you, let me know what you still have. Would like to see some pics.

Is your US Authentic a HH and what color or a Goatskin and is anything custom done to it or is it like off the rack? Is the Eastman roomy or form fitting. I'm looking for a roomy A-2.

Butte,
I may be interested in your Aero size 48 A-2, depending on measurements (got long arms) and pricing. Don't have enough posts to PM, but can be reached at email fz1pate@yahoo.com.

the UA authentic is russet horsehide, it's a 46 but fits like a 48. the zip is broken on that one though, easy to get fixed.

the usa is HH and roomy, the eastman is ok, not as roomy in the arms and shoulders, it has a nice fit.
