There were some really good A2s available at the time for same money, and I thought hard about one, but they offered little protection and could not shake childhood memories of frayed cuffs on originals, and doubt they would have held up as long as this thing has.PS- by weight, I mean this jacket made of leather normally reserved for chaps, boots, and blacksmith work aprons. Put this thing on the back of a chair and the chair will fall backwards.</blockquote>
