My 1960 G-1's - love them!!!!

I used to own a number of A-2's (20 years ago). Got out of collecting for quite a while. Now, 20 year later, I have yet to see an original A-2 that does not look too old, they all seem to, even the "mint" ones. Would love an original A-2 again but I wear repros for that.

This is an interesting question as a lot depends on the weather and my mood! In the winter I wear one of my Irvins or B3s. Providing its not to hot in the summer I usually wear one of my original A2s or my Block AN 6552.However, my daily wearer is either an ELC B15 or a Goodwear Doniger.

Original? My Dad's G-1, well worn by him from '59 on, well loved by me. Fits like a glove but my favorite daily wearer is an Aero Real Deal A-2

I own no originals.
Only one I really want is a Navy M-69 Transport Coat, but don't expect to find one in size 44 without paying a bloody fortune for it.

My Monarch is my favorite then the Doniger

Think aswatland has hit the nail on the head. Its all in what weather conditions apply, Getting into winter now so it has to be my Irvin (only jacket I have) but wouldn't want to wear it on warmer days
