    Nothing yet that would fall into this catagory

    General Comments

    Best selling point (and there are many)--versatility. This jacket has a somewhat formal look, and can be worn for an occasion that requires dressing up a bit, but grab when you're headed to a ballgame or just a quick errand, and it looks great!!

    Pros

    * Combines the best features of the A-2 and G-2 style jackets, including bi-swing shoulders for excellent mobility, snap down collars, and leather covering over zipper.
    * Lightweight leather and lining compared to similar jackets. This helps make it easier to travel with.
    * Available in tall sizes.

    Cons

    * A little bit on the snug side for the size, particularly at the waist.
    * Might not be as durable as comparable jackets due to the lightweight leather and lining.
    * I would prefer snap-down pocket flaps rather than button-through.
    * Only one internal pocket and it has a vertical opening. I'd prefer more internal pockets with horizontal openings and flaps or zippers to secure the contents.
    * The knit sleeve cuffs and waistband are a bit bulky compared to other jackets I've tried.

    A high quality, well-made product with all the details you expect. And, an extremely good value too! Compare similar jackets at LL Beans or Orvis which have less detailing and cost considerably more. Mine is a Medium (40-42) and it fits me like a glove (I'm 6'2", 180 lbs).

    Cons

    None. In fact, Sporty's will clean the jacket for you if you send it back to them!

    Jacket is made of fine soft leather. Very comfortable to wear. Material was actually better quality than I had expected. My opinion is that you can't find a better deal. It's well worth the price!!

    Cons

    Although, it does have a pocket near the inside of the zipper flap, it could use an inside breast pocket.

    General Comments

    I am very pleased with the purchase and was excited to receive it only 2 days after the order was placed and in perfect condition... Great job Sporty's!!!

    Can not keep your car keys in the side pockets. They fall out.
    But it is a classic Jacket.

    General Comments

    I liked it so well I sent one to my son for his birthday. I should have bought his at the same time I bought mine. The price went up by the time I bought his.

    Pros

    it's a nice copy of what was the u.s. army anj-3 jacket, however, it is not acceptable since the anj-3 jacket was only made by u.s. manufacturers, and having a u.s. military specification name on the jacket implies, in fact directly states that it would be made by a u.s. company as all military specification u.s. apparel are...i never would have ordered this had i known it was not made in the u.s., but this is in the 'pro' section because i must admit it was a nicely made piece

    Cons

    as stated above, selling a jacket with a u.s. military designation number, where part of that designation is that a u.s. manufacturer is the producer of the jacket, makes this jacket a lie and fraudulent...your ad link to purchase did not mention this was not u.s. made, and while your 'additional information' link stated 'imported', that would be expected to mean imported leather...selling a jacket as an 'anj-3', or an 'a-2' means the jacket follows u.s. specifications, which for these jackets means being made by u.s. contractors...as a pilot supply house you of all people should know this...if you must sell these jackets and have them made in pakistan, or wherever, you legally should state 'anj-3 style' or 'anj-3-type' jacket, which let's you off the hook in having the jacket not made by a u.s. contractor, which is a major aspect of a u.s. military designation jacket

    General Comments

    really, as a u.s. citizen, and military enthusiast/collector, i'm disgusted that items made in foreign countries are passed off with official u.s. designations...i have a sporty's a-2 horsehide jacket made in the u.s., one of your older jackets...it's among my favorite items i own...it's disgusting that a manufacturer such as yourself, serving the american public and community, and very much so the military and ex-military community, would be offering items claiming to be something they are not...put the word 'style' or 'type' after the military designation so that if you are fooling people, at least you are using your legal loophole...as for me, i'd rather pay the few dollars more to have you build these jackets in the u.s., then have others overseas produce the to save a few dollars...and in the case of pakistan, this is not really an ally, but a harborer of those we are actually fighting in afghanistan...please be assured i have returned the jacket, made this point to your telephone agents, and spread the word among the military wear and pilot communities online...i truly am aghast at this
