Dubow a2 from Platon

[ycloud77]

@regius I had to do the same thing. Platon didn't confirm my color choice for the Italian horsehide a few weeks after I placed the order. Opened a case and got a message from him after Ebay freezed the fund. Platon said he was travelling and my messages were displaced. Wish I didn't have to do that but no communication at the time made me nervous. Nevertheless the jackets was finished beautifully and delivered at the end.
I just want to share my personal experience and can't advise you to open a case or not. Keep in mind Paypal protection is 6 months these days.

My size 42 in seal arrived last week. I think it's great - an extra half-to-three-quarters of an inch in the sleeve would make it perfect.

Looks to me like and extra 1 1/2 inches more in the sleeve would be better.

I agree with HD: those sleeves do look a good 1.5” too short.

I know the sleeves on many of my jackets are too long, but those sleeves are much too short in my view. The rest of the fit looks solid.

They could be longer but you can get away with them, there are period photos of A2's being worn with sleeves like that. I think the sleeve length obsession - which I generally share - is more of a recent preoccupation.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Well sure they are a recent obsession. We aren't being issued a regular take it or leave it A2 by the Army Air Corps over the counter. Many today are paying for a better well fitting jacket. Why would you want it to be ill fitting and look poorly sized..??

HD, that's fair too. If he hates it then that's the important bit.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Truly important bit Seb.

Hi guys is it normal that I won't receive any confirmation email after making the order? I made an order 2 weeks ago, did receive invoice number cos I paid with Paypal, but so far not an email from Platon. I sent him an email to see if the order has been registered but no reply...

Unfortunately normal, but you will get your jacket. You should be contacted when it ships.

COVID has had a massive impact on BK.
