AVI LTHR BRONCO A-2 Jacket Review & Pics

[LtMehlich]

Did you already received a message that the jacket was sent to you and tracking?

Yes it says A2 Bronco, seal brown. I hope it really is the seal one

I have sent several emails. All unanswered. Hmmmm.

Yesterday I received email that my russet already on way to me.

I received an email about a week ago (Thursday) saying that the jacket had been shipped and that I'd receive another email with the tracking number. Then I got an email this past Wednesday saying that the jacket was shipped on Tuesday and gave me the tracking number. My guess is that the previous Thursday had been the day before a long weekend and, well, we all know what happens at lunchtime on such days (LOL). Cast the first stone and all that. Hopefully, I'll have the jacket for a long time.

Yes, and people go away on long weekends... I've always experienced great customer service from these guys. Emails do get answered, even if it takes a day or two. I am expecting my jacket on Monday! If not, Tuesday... If not then Wednesday hahaha

Got a reply this morning. Unfortunately no more 38s in stock. I am pretty sure a 40 would be too baggy looking on me.
I normally wear a 36.
Looks great though as they sent me a few pics.

Pictures of the new russet version can now be found on their website.

Looking good!
Jeremiah, have you asked them to measure for you? These run to WW2 military sizes and are trim... You never know.

Is it my imagination?... The current set of jacket pics (both seal & russet) seem to have a thicker, grainier, more authentic-looking goatskin compared to the original AVI offered for the Bronco.

Nonetheless, I'm glad that I procrastinated on the original seal. IMO, for the $$, the latest versions are a STEAL considering the authentic details, and pattern. There is a russet in my future for certain...

Yes. Thanks. I may hold out for a 38 still. I could make a 19-19.5” pit to pit work fine but the 40 is around 21”

Looks great ! Now we are waiting for the jackets )))

 

[tropicalbob]

According to the Danish tracking system, the jacket arrived in this country last Thursday. What with those new photos of the russet Bronco, the waiting is getting unbearable. That goatskin looks good enough to eat.

 

[Flightengineer]

Patience and again patience

I received my jacket today, and thankfully it is the seal
But it seems to sit quite tight in the armpit... is this normal? Gonna upload pictures tommorow so you can tell me what you think

 

[Flightengineer]

Show us the pics.

I have tried to contact them several times over the past few weeks but never heard back from them.
Basically, I wanted to get some specific measurements , especially about the sleeves.
I am 6'4 for 182 lbs and usually wear jackets that are size 42L , 42XL or 44L

anybody has "data" available on their size 42, 44 and 46?

Thanks

Yes, on the updated AVI site it looks like the leather really has become different on Bronco.

Hi, welcome to TFL.
Perhaps this is due to the fact that they stuff are busy starting new Bronco.
About sleeves for size 42 Brettafett surely can tell you.

 

[Gutmann]

Unfortunately to small in 46.
I‘m 6.2 and 87 kg.

What do you think?
