UPFor $91 plus shipping, it looks pretty good in the photos. The pictures alone make my only other A-2 repro pretty sad looking in comparison. Looking forward to getting this one home.
As a collector of 'orphan' A2s, I bought a used Protech off eBay about a year ago. It was goatskin and marked sz 42, and I was pleasantly surprised that it fit me really well, as I normally wear a sz 40. It's one of my favorite wearers.
Re: Just won this Protech A-2 Repro. UPDATED with picture
Here's a shot of how I've modified the Protech. It is pretty slim fitting for a 46 Long. I wish the pockets weren't so high set. I also wish the lining was cotten, not the fake silk stuff that it is. The goatskin is very supple and not heavy, maybe medium to light weight. I like it much better than my other repro. Nice jacket for everyday wear. Nothing less than a Goodwear will really satisfy, though. Maybe an Eastman. I'll just keep watching Ebay for someone's cast off Goodwear at a much lower than new price. Hope springs eternal.
