WowSo, I'll be honest, I've only owned mass market sub-$250 leather jackets before. When I recieved my A2 in seal horsehide, I thought there must be a mistake as this jacket seemed to be made out of steel. I did not know leather this tough existed! I suspect this will be the toughest wearing jacket of any kind I have ever owned. I also think its going to have a very long break-in period, but I look forward to it very much. I feel 100% satisfied with the value delivered for the price and am already looking for other jackets to add to my closet. Nothing but thumbs up from me!Posted on
My Experience Buying A Custom' A-2 Horsehide JacketI purchased this jacket with custom to my measurements & with some custom features.
The overall process was easy & the delivered jacket was perfect in all resects. I've had the jacket for about a year now & am very happy with it. The company is reliable & fully delivers on its' promises, the workmanship is outstanding, the jacket looks better than I could ever hoped for.
I'm very happy I found this company. I highly recpommend them & their products.Posted on
Excellant quality, great service, fast shipping.Not my first A2 from Shaul. I also have an A2 in Vintage Goat. I ordered a stock goat that was a mid-brown shade. When the jacket arrived the sleeves fit longer that the vintage goat and I had to send it back to have the sleeves shortened. Sent it on Monday and had it back on Saturday - now the fit is perfect. I can't say enough about the fast service. I looked at a number of other A2 makers from Goodwear, Eastman, Aero, and Cockpit but went with USA because I felt it was the best value. I'm not a stitch counter nor am I a stickler for slavish historical accuracy. I am a former SAC Combat Crew Commander and know full well how things really fit when issued. The "trim fit" that the Fedrora Lounge members seem to look for is totally unusable in the real world. You can't set an altimeter or reach anything in a plane cockpit let alone a car interior with the skin tight fit those folks seem to think is ideal. This jacket fits and you can actually fly/drive with it on.Posted on
Fantastic quality and attention to detailIn a time where cheap, mass-produced, low-quality options abound, this jacket and company stand head and shoulders above the norm. I've owned my A2 for nearly a decade now and continue to love and appreciate it each time I put it on. It is well worth the slightly higher cost vs. a knock-off model. You will not regret purchasing a higher quality, made-to-last jacket like this. Thank you!Posted on
Top qualityI own a russet horsehide FJ A-2 since about a year in a tall size with longer body and arms. Perfect "custom" fit, one reason for me to pick FJ. Being taller it still has the original AAF pattern with big (more expensive) pieces of leather that the current issue official USAF style has abandoned for cost reasons and it is very well made. Be informed please, as this is the original pattern it has no side entry pockets.
I love the usability of the A-2. I can be worn open in spring without being bulky and will work well zipped up in fall or on windy days. The look is 100 percent classic. I can recommend this flight jacket. It looks like it will last many years.Posted on
Very good productI have had my US Authentic A-2 for over a decade, and it's finally taking on the worn patina. I will be sporting this jacket the rest of my life.Posted on
Absolutely Satisfied!My A-2 arrived today. After exchanging a 46 Tall for 46 Regular ( the latter being a much better fit with room for a sweater), it is a poverty of words with which I try to express how thoroughly happy I am with my flight jacket. Absolutely outstanding jacket, absolutely outstanding and professional service from initial purchase through delivery today………….I could go on and on…..! If you desire one of these flight jackets and wish to enjoy the same quality of flight gear worn during WW2……DO BUSINESS WITH THESE FOLKS! You will not regret it.Posted on
Exceptional Quality...Exceptional ServiceMy newly acquired russet A 2 is the second I've purchased from Shauli this year and the third over the past two years. My previous review details the outstanding quality of these jackets but now, I want to compliment Shauli's overall dedication to customer service. I had an issue which was promptly addressed and resolved within 24 hours to my complete satisfaction. Look no further when purchasing an authentic WWII A 2 jacket and know that you're in good hands.Posted on
Quality JacketSimply the best A-2 I ever owned!Posted on
Work of artI just received my second A-2. I ordered my first one about 8 years ago in Russet Horsehide. That jacket is awesome and I get as many compliments on it today as when it was new. I decided to get a new horsehide jacket in Seal brown with some custom work. It arrived the other day and I absolutely love it. Shaul is an artist the craftsmanship, quality, attention to accuracy and detail is phenomenal. If you are sitting on the fence about getting one, do it. It's worth every penny.
