Looking for a good Aero repro --- A-2 Jacket.

Hello,

First, a happy new year to everyone!

I am looking for an A-2 from one of the top tier manufacturers, namely Few, Buzz or GW. But I am open to other outfits. In the past, I have been impressed by pieces from Norshor or DD, and sometimes Aero (Scotland).

The original manufacturer I am interested in is AERO Leather (Beacon) with the characteristic red knits. I am a size 40 with a little bit of slack depending on the fit. I am not too concerned about wear and tear, as long as the overall condition is clean and in good shape. I am more interested in a nice patina and character in the leather, etc. I have to say I am not too keen on flat lifeless skin, especially in a second hand kit.

Keep me posted!

Hello,

Thinking that I should have provided some measurements that I follow when buying.

There is play depending on the contract/cut, these are my guides.

SHO: 17 1/2 - 18 1/2
P2P: 22 - 23
BCK: 25-26
SLV: 25-26

Thanx,

B

Hi Gaz,

Yes I do have a GW RW for trade, but sorry that Aero, albeit nice, is not what I am looking for.

Thank for the offer, its appreciated!
