Army Air Corps type A-2 summer open cockpit flying jacket became one of the most popular garments ever issued to aviators. Willis & Geiger was one of the original suppliers of this classic during its long service life, where it saw action in every theater of operations until long after World War II and the Korean conflict. The original Willis & Geiger A-2 was made of seal brown horsehide and later goatskin, as it is made today, with one piece back and set-in sleeves.

The original was lined in brown spun silk, which gave way over the years to cotton, and today Bemberg rayon. The cuffs and waist-band, like the original are brown merino wool single-direction ribbing knit.
