This is exactly why I decided to keep my ELC House A-2 finally after initial doubts. I live in warm Texas and this lightweight jacket is actually working well in the North Texan spring.
Thanks Seres, does the Aero goat patina and/or show wear at all? The reason I want my next jacket to be goat is because I want one jacket to look uniform & retain the color so that I can wear it to the office & be sharp as I'm sure my ELC A-2 will patina in time. I've read elsewhere in the forum...
Thanks for the feedback, guys. I looked at another Eastman over the weekend and it’s similar to mine. So, I’ve decided to keep this one.
I live in Texas and this lighter weight leather is actually going to be more practical and wearable for better part of the year here. My wife seems to...
Hello fellow loungers,
I recently ordered an Eastman A-2 “House Version” and when I received it, the workmanship was very good but I was underwhelmed by the leather itself. It is very thin. Thinner than even my wife’s lambskin jacket from Wilson’s. The leather in the chest area is thinner...

What do you guys think?

Hi Fellow loungers,
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, Thurston Brothers sounds like a good option, but I hit up the quartermaster sale like Boyo suggested and ordered a size 40 42-18775. The length on this jacket as pert the listing was 24.5 (much shorter than other listings in size 40) which...
Hello,
I'm planning to get a seal brown A-2 and what I'm looking for is a good trim fit with good quality components that will last a while. In the past, I had ordered an A-2 in goatskin from US Authentic in size 38 Skinny, but that jacket was way off in fit. It measured 23 inches...
Were you both able to get your jackets? I'm considering ordering from him, but I haven't been able to get in touch with him via email. I emailed couple of times in the past two weeks but got nothing in return..... crickets. Generally, not a good sign, but I'n curious given the price this is...
