I've always wanted one of theses for everyday use, and now thanks to WPG I have one at a very reasonable price. Buy it you'll have no regrets!
I ordered one size up after reading the reviews and I recommend you do the same.
The only detractor (which did not rate a 4 ranking) is the jacket ships in a bag rather than a box. The collar of my jacket picked up a crease where none should be, and because it's leather it's not like I can iron the crease out. But really this is only a minor quibble

Was waiting to write a review till the other guys in my reenactment group seen it, there's some guys that have seen or have the best, every one thought it looked great, and definitely best bang for the buck. The jacket fits great, little tighter, these jackets are designed like the real ones not after modern day style. And the arms are 40's style, little shorter than to long. I love it.

This garment is a very faithful reproduction of a WWII era A-2 flight jacket. The hide and construction is impressive at this price point. Delivery was fast and the jacket arrived in beautiful condition. Know what you are ordering here... this is a true "era" military-fit jacket. It runs on the slim side. If you are a US 42 Reg. -Probably want to go up a size. Also no hand-warmer pockets. -Pilots wore gloves. I look forward to doing business with WPG again.
