Cable 10008

£1,055.00

The original maker of this jacket is Cable Raincoat Co., of Boston Mass., who was awarded three A-2 jacket contracts in total.

Jackets of this contract were predominantly made with goatskin however it is documented that horsehide was also used.

This pattern compliments the wearer with a nice relaxed fit. It's easy and comfortable to wear having broad shoulders, roomy upper sleeves and regular collar style without the collar stand.

For our reproduction we used the nickel plated small-ring press-studs and Conmar zipper, features which are less commonly found on original Cable jackets.

Five star general Douglas MacArthur wore a Cable A-2 jacket during the Korean war.

The jacket on display is made with Liberty Horsehide Seal, mustard brown lining and Perry purple thread.
