@jonbuilder I thought so as well, but there doesn’t seem to be any openings around the knees.
Sick. Totally sick. So nice.
So nice! Look forward to seeing the fit pics.
Greg can do no wrong it seems. My family just went out so I pumped up the AC and put mine on. I am still floored by the details I notice. Firstly, no other maker could fit a jacket with such tight tolerance and still have this level of comfort and movement. The dude understands human physiology, which is what makes it fit like a second skin. And the pocket bags - that fabric is just out of this world!
Thanks Jin! This will be my first brass on black jacket so I'm pretty pumped for it to arrive. For brown, I do have a somewhat slimmed down and simplified J-24 with my Aero Ridley.@marker2037 love the classic j24 look with added flair on the sleeves, the brass on black leather is a perfect combo, just an awesome classy build. Congrats man!
*now you need a brown jacket counterpart
Definitely nice and it should look so good when the brass patina' s and the teacore shows through. Ahh I remember now, I forgot that you have that new blackened brown J24!Thanks Jin!

Next jacket up would be a brown Leathertogs, but I'm pretty satisfied with my collection for now.
I have 2 A-2's I never wear. Great jacketsYesterday I wasted time looking at A2s. Finished the evening by correctly concluding I don’t need one. Second post I saw on insta today had a Hh A2 for sale. Guess my earlier conclusion was wrong.
I've got 2 vintage Schott A2ish jackets enroute. We'll see. Got them cheap so low risk. Every once in awhile I see a pic of someone wearing it well and I dream lol. But most times it ain't probably going to crack my rotation. Those higher end ones like Eastman, rmc, etc. Sure do look great though.I have 2 A-2's I never wear. Great jackets![]()
I think they look great, but they are crazy impractical with the flat, small pockets. I always grab something else when I run out the door.I've got 2 vintage Schott A2ish jackets enroute. We'll see.

Check out the schott is674 and the various offspring--184 and 174. They have hand warmer slots as well. So you get the look but more function from them. It's probably more G1 than A2, but has elements of both.I think they look great, but they are crazy impractical with the flat, small pockets. I always grab something else when I run out the door.
I have 3 infact...A vintage civilian A-2 with handwarmer pockets, but that jacket is so short I can hardly get my hands that highCheck out the schott is674 and the various offspring--184 and 174.

My issue is more about the potato sack torso. I think this can be helped with maybe a longer length so the knits stay put around the hips and keep everything stretched. Or maybe I'm wrong and just creating more material to bunch up. I'll soon find out lol.
nice. good fit in the body, but yeah, you need a couple more inches on the back and sides. Although that looks like a good front drop position.I have 3 infact...A vintage civilian A-2 with handwarmer pockets, but that jacket is so short I can hardly get my hands that high
