Classic Cooper Sportswear USAF goatskin leather A-2. Late 1980s-early'90s. Size 42R. No rips or tears. A couple of white marks shown in pic.5; an easy clean. It's in VG lightly used condition, well cared for. Previous owner name is on liner tag, and a patch was removed on left chest area (pic.2) (This example is the early version having a single side seam running from the sleeve to the bottom of the jacket exactly like a WW11 jacket. (pic.6). Late 1990s Coopers added a 3" wide piece of leather for a looser fit, which created a double seam.) -- Measurements taken with the jacket laid flat and zipped, on front - armpit to armpit 22-1/2", sleeve length from shoulder seam to end of wool cuff 23-1/2", shoulder to shoulder 20-1/2", and on back center from bottom of collar to bottom of waistband 24-1/2". - Note that Cooper A-2s run a little small in keeping with the military "snug fit" sizing, so this may fit more like a modern size 40R. It is best to compare my measurements with a jacket that you now wear and are comfortable with to insure a proper fit. - Please feel free to email me with any questions before bidding. -- Thanks for looking!
