Description
The 1943 C2 Sweater in grey is a faithful reproduction of the original USAAF design, developed as part of the first layered flight system for pilots during World War II. Intended to be worn beneath the iconic A2 leather jacket, it provided essential insulation while maintaining full freedom of movement. Crafted from 100% merino wool, the sweater delivers exceptional warmth, breathability, and comfort. Its slim fit, raglan sleeves, and authentic Talon zipper ensure both practicality and period accuracy. Finished with a single front pocket and original-style specification label, this piece perfectly captures the functionality and heritage of 1940s military aviation gear.

Features
Pike Brothers
Pike Brothers is a German heritage menswear label dedicated to reviving the spirit, craftsmanship, and authenticity of early 20th-century workwear and military apparel. What distinguishes Pike Brothers is its devotion to authenticity as a process rather than a trend. Every garment is designed and produced with the same care, integrity, and attention to detail as the originals that inspired them. The brand’s collections take influence from vintage workwear, military outerwear, and the rugged functional clothing of mid-century tradesmen and adventurers.
Pike Brothers prioritises materials of exceptional character—custom-woven denims, waxed cottons, and heavy jungle cloth—often produced on vintage looms to capture the texture and durability of earlier eras. Each piece reflects a balance of practicality and storytelling: made to be worn hard, to age beautifully, and to endure for decades. Today, Pike Brothers stands as a bridge between eras—a brand for those who appreciate the craftsmanship and spirit of true heritage clothing. Its garments appeal to riders, craftsmen, and vintage enthusiasts alike: people who seek authenticity, honesty in design, and clothing built with purpose and soul.
All sizing information is for guide purposes only.
Where possible we provide individual product size guides. If these aren't
available we provide a generic brand size guide. Individual garments may
differ from these measurements and we cannot guarantee the item you receive
will match these measurements exactly.
Many brands also have a level of tolerance in size differences
between the same item - this is usually 0.5 inches.
If no size guide is shown below, it means there is not one available at
present for this item and it will be added if/when it becomes available.
