    A-2 trade?

    Hello, I have an Aero Leather Aero Beacon Anniversary, 44R in seal brown which I would like to trade for a 46R Aero, Eastman or Goodwear in horshide. The jacket has been worn only a few times. I am actually a 44 but to be honest I am not sold on the 'vintage fit'. I know a lot of people...
