I forgot to post the required “Fit Pix”
Sorry for being off topic, but the denim looks great!

Great write up on the Sefton A-2! I've been trying to find one in my size 42 for ages and recently picked up this one from the UK. Sure it lacks details of higher end reproduction A-2's but it's very well constructed and the poopy russet steer hide is a dead on match to many of my originals. BTW, I also have an unworn sz 44 Sefton I thought would fit but is way too big on me I'm happy to move on for a decent price if anyone's interested.

Probably too big for me, but out of curiosity, what’s the pit-to-put on the size 44 Sefton?
The one you’re wearing looks amazing, btw.

Thanks to Kermit in another thread, I came across 2 nice Sefton jackets:
Blouson Cuir AIR FORCE US ARMY TYPE A-2 - Vêtements (leboncoin.fr)
Blouson flight jacket A2 - Vêtements (leboncoin.fr)
If you speak French and have access to this auctionsite, the size 38 is a gorgious jacket.

I miss my Sefton, a really great made A-2. Mine was a really red russet steer.

Received today my new A-2 Sefton and I must say that it is a total pleasure to wear!
The leather is supple and hugs the body like a second skin, plus the size suits me perfectly (I was a little scared because the guy who sold it to me is almost a giant)
I paid €250 for the jacket on Vinted and it’s clearly a gift for the price!
Thanks to B-Man2 for this thread without which I would never have known the history of these jackets and therefore would not have gotten this good deal!

Can you please give me the dimensions of size 48, shoulder width, armpit width and sleeve length from the shoulder seam to the bottom of the knitwear?
Thanks
