Pros
Considering that my order included a custom name patch, I was amazed at how rapidly my order was completed and delivered!

Cons
I ordered a Large Tall as this usually gives me a perfect fit in jackets. In fact the sleeves are a little TOO long for me in this size on the jacket. However, the length is right to keep my bum warm on winter days, so I'm not complaining!

General Comments
I would have liked a silk lining to the jacket [as in the originals] but recognise that this would have added considerably to the cost. I would have paid the extra if it had been an option. Overall, very satisfied.

Pros
- Great Fit - Excellent Leather - Close Match to original A-2

Cons
- Pockets: 1. Side pockets need to be slanted down on the inside, they do not hold items well. 2. They also ride too high, should be placed lower on the jacket.

Pros
Initial thought of the coat was very nice. It even smelled like goat(must have been "hot off the press"). Elastic waist band snugs the coat up at the wrists and waist while the coat itself still remains comfortable. Quality of the leather is really nice, and it has the epaulet holders on the shoulders to give it that authentic "pilot" look. Pen holders are convenient (I use one for the arm on my sunglasses) and a a larger pocket for other things. Name patch looks good and the embroidery came out professional. Even if you don't wear the patch the Velcro is still there and gives it more of an aviator look over normal leather coats.

Cons
Only thing I could see improving on is the hand warmer pockets. They seem to be a little too far to the side. It feels as if your hands are on your waist as opposed to other coats where they're a little in front.

General Comments
Awesome coat overall.

Pros
Roomy with good articulation gussets under arms; it's much better than the Avirex reproduction A-2 I've had since 1991. Inside pockets with pen holders are useful. Lining is good, jacket slides on/off easily.

Cons
not much, if any

General Comments
I really like this jacket!
