I recently purchased from a fellow member a wonderful A2 Perry 23377 - Size 40
As this contract was only manufactured in Goat its my first original that's not Horse
I have to say the buttery soft description that caught my attention is exactly true.
Its in wonderful condition for a seventy year old jacket.
I took it on holiday this week to Rome together with a repro Aero 38 in dark seal -size 40.
I love wearing the Perry but I would welcome some advice on its fit to me.
I personally think the sleeves are slightly longer than ideal as does my wife.
The question is do I live with them or sell it on.
I really don't want to alter and shorten an original.
The other issue is my daughter thinks the front makes me look fat !
Daughters really love you sometimes but in the pictures I kind of see where she is heading.
I have attached a picture of the Aero and its fit which she prefers as a guide.
The holiday was wonderful.
Its been several years since I last visited Rome and its a city I love and one I would recommend.
