I wonder if the problem with this particular A-2 is the sleeve pitch. It doesn't look right to me. Consider the twist in the leather around the shoulder area, and the baggy back and "slim" front. Faulty pitch would account for both of those problems. The reference to pulling it down in the back while putting it on and then having it ride-up after normal movement suggests it, too.

Since the question was raised, I personally also think the M-422a/G-1 fit more flattering than the A-2. I don't know much about contracts, but going by Eastmans I have seen, the former style(s) are broader in the shoulders, very trim in the body and the fur collar makes your neck look shorter and broader, all these attributes contributing to accentuating the male physique.
^ Yep, that's the one. Looks really awesome on Gav.
I wish we had female members here to share their insight on the matter but I would actually be willing to bet that the A-2 is a style women find least attractive on men. Provided they even notice it at all.
Yep, that's my experience. It's the knits and cargo pockets. I had a generic one and the young women at work called it my "old guy's" jacket. Aparently it needs to be worn with beige chinos to consolidate the old guy look.

I completely agree with this and I would add that it is a more functional jacket as well. A trim, slim fitting G-1 still offers a good range of motion where a trim, slim fitting A-2 feels tight and constricting through the shoulders and upper back.
