A Chinese brand based in Guangzhou in Southern China. Their products are made with top-notch matariels sourced from Japan, USA, Europe. I grew so interested in this brand recently and made multiple purchases.

This modified A-2 flight jacket is brand new with tag. I put it on for just seconds and realized it's too small.
it was made absolutely beautifully. Ray Kwok doesn't make it as an exact replica of A-2.
It still retains the authentic military look, but with some I think very desirable modifications.
Riveted front zippers, Handwarmer pockets and inside pocket
I plan to order another in right size

The owner told me their custom leather jacket business has constantly been unprofitable.
and will terminate this product line once the current leather stock is used up.

The detailed specs is as below:
- Veg tanned Shinki horsehide from Japan
- Waldes riveted front zipper, bell shap inside pocket zipper from Japan
- Riveted front zipper, the zipper cloth will never be torn.
- Waldes militray grade period correct stud fastener
- Harris Tweed plaid handwarmer pocket lining from UK
- Cotton lining
- Worsted wool knit
- the hand-written font on the label is intentional, and spaces is left for the owner to write personal info on
a great touch.

Japanese sizing, Marked size 42
shoulder seam to shoulder seam 48cm/18.75inch
chest between armpit to armpit 56cm/22inch
sleeve length from shoulder seam straight down to cuff 63cm/24.75inch
back length from neck seam to hem 63cm/24.75inch, with a 1 inch front dip
If you're 42 in mostly Japnese brand such as Freewheelers, TRM Buco, Rainbow Country, Jelado etc.
It's basically your size.

I am surprised how well the jacket was made especially at such a price point of 500~600 usd.
It's literally comparable with $1500 plus counterparts from Japan, USA or UK

My asking price of $550 is including international free shipping.
Trackable regular Post Office Airmail
Paypal FF prefered, 4.5% extra for a Paypal invoice.
Ships from Taiwan.

Let me show you the Shinki horsehide's grain and texture on this jacket.
Will age very beautifully I believe.
and the Waldes stud which is not shown in my original description.
