FULL GRAIN AMERICAN HORSEHIDE
This A2 is excellent in many ways. The level of craftsmanship is very high. The Russet Brown colour is truly WWII, which is hard to get these days. Most modern A2's are made in Dark Brown, or Seal Brown as they call it. Just after I placed the order I asked Cockpit USA directly about the leather, and I was informed in writing that the Horsehide used was FULL GRAIN. I think this is a very important piece of information that is not mentioned anywhere in the website or labelling. For the price we pay it's really good value for money. I love this jacket, it fits me very well. I am 174cm and 76kg, and I picked size 44R. I have seven A2's jacket, and this one is on the top of the list.
The last thing I want to mention, but not the least, is the level of customer service of ACE Jackets. I had several contacts with them through LIVE CHAT, one in particular was Angelica, and also Roxanne who provided me with details of the sizing. Angelica gave me the best deal with discounts for the jacket and shipping, also the tracking, when the jacket seemed to be stuck in JFK Airport. I would like to thank her again for her friendliness, and encourage other buyers to talk to her before purchasing.
