NEW with TAGS & certificate.
This has just been received and is 'right out the box'.
I am selling it as unworn, although I have tried it on and to take the fit photos.

Details:
Russet GOATSKIN - To my knowledge, this is the ONLY BK Dubow in goatskin in the world (was a custom request).
Tobacco Brown cotton lining
100% Wool Dull Purple knits
Mid Brown thread
1942 Talon Bell Zipper

All details & materials are of the highest quality & are correct for this contract.
This is a one-of-a-kind premium goatskin version of this ubiquitous A-2 contract (the goat feels and appears identical to a recent Goodwear goatskin A-2).
Goatskin is soft, pliable & supple and very forgiving. Its has smoother & more grainy areas and appears exactly like WW2 goatskin (owned a couple of WWII M-422As in the past)
Here's your chance to own something unique that no one else has.

Measurements approximate...
Shoulders - 17.75" to 18"
Pit to pit front - 21.75" to 22"
Pit to pit back - 21.75" to 22"
Sleeves curve - 26.5" (Sleeves feel shorter than they measure. My other size 42 A-2s measure about the same, but sit longer).
Back length - 25"

Fit is relative & subjective.
I am 5'10, 40" chest and 73kgs, average build.
This jacket feels OK, a bit on the trim side and shorter in the body than what I'd prefer.
I would say it's more like a size 41 (or even a comfy 40).
