I'm searching for WW2 khakis/chinos ,which are like "BILL'S KHAKIS" for example.
I've only found the docker K1 here ,but they seems to be not cutted wide enough and also "to low belted"(?) on the pictueres i saw.
Can you tell me where i can find those ?
I bouth it around the 10.10.2010 ,like it was said ,it would take ca.8 weeks.
Well , I'm aiming to take better photographs ,but I'll be a few days not available for this ,because I'll get all my wisdom teeth removed tomorrow...

Since yesterday, my first A-2 (size 40) is there:D
It's the "USAAF Type A-2 Oil-Pull Horsehide" with dark berry knits.
The pictures are not the best quality ,but iv'e got only a mobile-camera available.
What do you think about fit etc. ?
I got this picture of Knits from aero ,the colour of dark berry and rust are looking less colored than on previous pictures.
Is this equivalent to truth ?
Thanks,
it's the USAAF Type A-2 http://www.aeroleatherclothing.com/webapp/aeroleather/servlet/AeroViewPage?page=displayproduct&subcatid=101&prodid=534

The fit don't have to be really tight ,just not "loose".
Thanks.

In that case i could be the jacket for me to go for ,the only way to would be to try it.
But i,m not sure ,because on their side there are no returning polices listed.
Does Aero redfund their not-custom-sized jackets ,in a definite period ?
http://www.picturetrail.com/sfx/album/view/6113829 when i look at this pictures ,the aero real deal becomes unatractive to me.
The pockets are to big in my opinion , ist semms to be... unbalanced...
I get the feeling that i would have to spend more and go for an eastman ,but maybe just an...
Nice,

It don't seam to be on other pictures ,or does aero may varry the undertone in case wich collor of cuffing you chose ?
