Pilot Jacket A-2 Thousand Miles
USAAF Type A-2 Pilot Jacket in Seal Brown Steerhide
Premium quality steerhide and hand-tanned
in our own tannery.
A-2 US Army Air Force
The A-2 jacket was introduced in 1930 and produced until about 1942 as the successor to the A-1 jacket. As the B-3 jackets were "the" jackets for flying in the higher altitudes (as the Bomber pilots did), the A-2 jacket was "the" jacket for the fighterpilots. Also like the
B-3s, the A-2s became legendary and stand for freedom and tolerance.
