Acme 16160 Type A-2 Flight Jacket
Price: $775.00 (lightly used condition) — note shipping costs below
Fit: this pattern is comfortable in the correct size
Leather: seal brown Horween horsehide, .9mm thick
Lining: reddish cotton
Knits:: seal wool
Zipper: reproduction M-41 nickel Talon
Thread: mid-brown cotton
Size: 46

This jacket is made with a solid and vintage-looking Horween horsehide. The jacket is lightly used, about two hours, and the back panel is all that really shows wear (minor wrinkles will flatten out at this point).

The horsehide is typical of seal brown used in WWII, chrome tanned, softer than some veg-tanned horsehides, and the finish is semi-aniline. The knits match the leather in color. Some of the 16160 originals were dark brown, though most were russet.

The slider and all the snaps are vintage, with the snaps being United-Carr originals made in 1943.

The jacket would ideally fit someone in the range of 5'11" to 6'1", with a chest of 43" to 45", and a weight of about 180-205 pounds.
