A while back I posted photos of a Rough Wear A2 that I’ve owned for sometime now. I posted the jacket pictured below in at least two or three threads including “What Jackets Are You Wearing at the Moment?” and Repro A-2 Jackets with Hard Use--Let's see yours!
In all of those threads I consistently identified the jacket as a Real McCoy's New Zealand, Rough Wear A2.
Well ....you can imagine my complete surprise and a feeling of embarrassment, when I received an email from John Chapman on another subject, at the end of which he let me know in a very gentlemanly way, that this jacket was a Good Wear, Rough Wear A2, made by him.
Needless to say, I felt pleasantly surprised but completely embarrassed and a little stupid for not realizing what I owned and who made it.
John if you happen to read this,
My Sincerest Apologizes.
So here’s the jacket and here’s the retraction.
This is a Good Wear, Rough Wear A 2 and NOT a RMNZ as previously stated .
(duh!!)
