Type A-2 UNITED SHEEP LINED CLOTHING CO.
ORDER No. 42-18777-P
- This Type A-2 leather jacket is reproduced by "Buzz Rickson's" based on vintage jackets. The A-2, which first appeared in 1930, was produced by a total of 18 contractors, resulting in approximately 700,000 units being manufactured until 1943. The original of this particular A-2 model is from a batch of 25,000 units delivered by United Sheepskin Co. of New Jersey in 1942. The leather used in this model is a vegetable-tanned horsehide that has been aged, and the pigment used for the finish exhibits an attractive color reminiscent of rich cognac. The standout feature of its appearance is the angular pockets, and although it lacks a collar stand, it has a large and well-proportioned collar. The snap buttons are small crater-style buttons, and the shape of the reinforcement leather embedded in the collar and pocket flaps is circular, similar to what is seen in Dubow jackets. The neck hook at the collar can be fastened with a twin eyelet from either side, but in this A-2, the direction of fastening with twin eyelets is different from the usual, necessitating reinforcement with a single eyelet. In terms of stitching, the shoulder area where the front and back panels are joined is usually sewn with a higher back panel height behind the epaulet, but in this unusual specification, it is stitched just below the epaulet. The label is hidden beneath the hanger loop, obscuring the A-2 title and pattern number, emphasizing the order number and contract name instead.
