Here are a few quick shots of my latest arrival: a Goodwear Star Sportswear A-2 in JC's new seal brown Japanese horsehide. Next week I'm expecting the rest of my order, namely a Dubow 27798 in the dull russet pigment-dyed HH. JC is also shortening the sleeves of my Few Bronco, which exhibited a bit more tunneling than I'd prefer.
Like the Few Bronco, this jacket is tagged a size 46 but as many of you know I generally wear a 42. However, I couldn't be happier with the fit given the inherent limitations of the A-2 design. The square shoulders and generous upper back panel give me the freedom of movement I require, while the body is far from blousy despite the larger indicated size. Although this particular jacket was an unexpected purchase, I can definitely state that JC's work is worth waiting for. His service is top notch as well. I wasn't even aware of this jacket's existence until Wednesday, and two days later it's on my back!
