A2 – Russet
The
A-2 jacket was introduced by the US Army Air Corps on May 29, 1931 as
the INTERMEDIATE Flying Jacket,
over time and due to different
contracts and suppliers
there were several similar versions of the A-2 made which all had
basically the same construction.
Our A-2 Russet is made from
Steerhide, 2 mm thick and tanned by hand via our vegetable
method exactly like 70 years ago.
