Hello,

Do you have the measurements of the jacket? Buzz sizing, especially with B-15 and L-2's can differ from contracts to contracts.

Ex: Superior Togs L-2A (38) can be as large as your L-2B in Large... It will be useful to help you if you provide the measurements for this exact jacket.

The L-2 Jacket was born in 1945 out of a need to produce a piece which was easier to manufacture, and was less costly. Little did the U.S Army Air Corps know that this design would help to forge the image of flight jackets for generations to come. Cut from a 3/1 heavy nylon twill, this...

I think I will fit the jacket a bit snug from the sizng chart above @RumRunner thanks all helping me out I will go for this jacket I like this model because it has epaulet .

Shoulders are also important to take in account, some B-15 have wide shoulders, especially early nylon originals, but L2 are more snug.

You mentioned t-shirt 19'... Don't compare with a t-shirt, go with a jacket that fit you well... just saying.

They are not thick and would resemble your goatskin, you should be all right.

In my experience BR L-2's fit bigger than marked. I normally wear 42 on my nylon jackets (1,80 mts.- 78 kg.) but I wear size 40 on my BR L-2A, and fits perfectly.
