This jacket is a return for sizing. It was just a bit too tight in the chest for the intended customer, and is available now in new condition.
The jacket is custom-sized with a snugger torso and waist area than vintage Donigers would be, so it would fit someone who is both
tall and slender in the 5'11" to 6'1" range. As for the pattern we have, we were able to pattern four originals, and feel our version of
the Doniger is a superb example compared with their iconic A-2 creation. This is a slender version but still very much of a Doniger shape.
The jacket is modeled by John, who is 178 pounds and 6 feet 1" tall. It fits tightly on him width-wise, so someone
with a similar build but with a narrower torso would wear this particular jacket well. We have numbers below for a potential excellent fit.
The leather just above the waistband is 19.5" if pressed flat, across the waistband. Originals of this size would be a bit wider.
The jacket is made with chrome-tanned russet goatskin, which is soft and extremely comfortable, and which will show superb aging as
it gets used more and more. The lining is a dense cotton fabric of correct weight from our new source, and the knits are also our
new mid-brown, which are so well made. The zipper is a reproduction Talon with a vintage slider, and the bottom stopper is vintage, too.
The jacket would ideally fit someone in the range of 5'10" to 6'1", with a chest of 38" to 40", and a weight of about 155-175 pounds.
