A-2 Russet

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.
