Selling this Bill Kelso Bronco 29191 A-2 flight jacket, bought as new from Brettafett on here.

Only tried on a handful of times at home. It’s just a bit too tight for me, and I am going to get another Goatskin A-2 but size bigger.

Full details here: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/thr...-bronco-29191-a-2-jacket.122223/#post-3244556

I’ll update with some photos now.

Looking for £750 including fully insured postage to a UK address.

Any questions - please message me!

Some more photos to try and capture the stunning leather.
I know how much horsehide is revered (and rightly so) here, but for an A-2, goatskin wears so well, is comfortable and lighter for those warmer days (maybe not the current UK heatwave days!). I’ve owned a couple of vintage goatskin jackets too and despite the weight, the leather is so tough, will definitely outlast the wearer.
This hide definitely has the look and feel of a vintage jacket, more subdued than some modern russet hides.
The price for this new was £1055
and it is a virtually new jacket, with tags and original box etc.

Price drop to £725.

To answer questions about size, I am 6ft 1” tall and about 15 stone. Back and sleeve length fit absolutely fine, I would suggest it would be a better fit for someone around 13 stone, with a 34” waist.

Dropping this to £650 including next day delivery to a UK address as my new Goatskin jacket is incoming!

A great deal for someone looking for a good as new Bronco from one of the top makers!

(I keep meaning to mention, the leather on this jacket smells absolutely amazing!!)
