Vintage 50’s A-2 model flight jacket

The famous A-2 model flight jacket originally was designed and issued by the US Army to Air Force pilots, navigators and bombardiers during WWII. After the war the A-2 became very populair, worn in many TV shows and movies by famous actors many manufactorers began to reproduce the jacket for casual use in the 50’s & 60’s.
It never came out of style and still remains an American style icon!

This jacket most probably has a military background.
This leather jacket has a polyester fabric inner lining and a Talon zipper, which indicates it was made in the US.

The jacket is in a used-condition, it faded nicely due years of wearing, giving it
a rugged vintage-look! the leather shows a distressed patina which only adds
to the jacket’s character by giving it a rough touch.
The leather has been cleaned with leather soap and treated with grease.
