They also do a long/tall size for the taller guys out there at no extra charge (as long as you don't require more then 2 extra inches in sleeve or body length). They quoted me a price of 580 Euros for a 46L Arco (Aero) A-2 in dark seal HH shipped to the U.S.
I'm tempted to pull the trigger but have already placed an order with Aero back in April for an A-2....c'est la vie!

Here are some pics of the Bill Kelso Rough Wear 27752 being worn. I'm not typically shy about showing my face, but man! : I'm a mess...

Unzipped, holding an authentic Luxenburg crush cap for color reference. The pants are WPG's officer pinks:

Zipped, arms up and slightly back:

Back, arms folded in front:

For no reason that I know of, I'm a little lopsided; my right shoulder a little higher than my left. All the time. I'm crooked. Leave me alone.

This last pic, I was doing a kind of "robot walk" in place as the timer counted down. I tried to pause mid-stride to show where everything falls.

The pockets, not yet broken in, cause the front to blouse a little bit, so keep in mind that it should be hanging a little closer to my midsection after some wear. I accidentally filled one of the pockets of my US Authentic with tequila ( don't ask...) and it looks nice and puffy broken in. Considering the possibility...
