What kind of leather are these? I'm looking for a Cockpit or Avirex horsehide but most listings on Ebay turn out to be
goat or cowhide or just "unidentified" which doesn't help. The pictures often don't give enough detail to tell.
For some reason there are not usually any tags specifying...
I have a Cooper size 46 with 22 inch shoulders. A size 44 or 42 should be around 21 inches.
Coopers seem to have wider shoulders than other makes.
I also have a Gibson Barnes size 42 with 20 inch shoulders.
The Gibson Barnes vegetable tanned goatskin is a dark russet almost like seal brown. Kind of like cocoa with some red tones in it but
primarily a chocolatey color.
I am 6 feet tall and was 210 lbs. when I got the Mark 31. Now I'm down to 190 lbs.
The sleeves are about an inch and a half to long for me.

The Mark 31 is a very nice jacket and it has more freedom of arm movement than other A-2s I have worn since the arm
holes are higher up. Unfortunately it's always been a little to large for me and I recently have lost some weight so now it's even

With all this praise for the GB Mark 31 goatskin A-2 I would like to mention that I have had a size 42 Mark 31 for sale
on FL for several months if anyone is interested. It really is thicker and has more grain than any other goatskin
I've seen and the silk lining is pretty nice too. I...
The GB Mark 31 size 42 is still available if anyone is interested.
I thought I had it sold locally for $300.00 but the guy never came through with the money.
I'm also still interested in trading for a horsehide A2 with similar measurements.
If I order an A-2 from Bill Kelso in Greece would there be a VAT charge to ship it to California USA
or is the VAT only for the UK and within EU countries? If so does anyone know what that VAT percentage would be?
Is there any way to edit the title of the thread to indicate for sale or trade? I see that on a lot of other listings
but I can't figure out how to update the header.
I'm interested in selling or trading*a size 42* GB* Mark* 31* goatskin A2 jacket for a pre-owned russet* horsehide* A2* with approximately the same measurements in reasonably good condition. I'm not particular about accuracy just want a nice horsehide A2 with a comfortable fit.
