How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

I will take credit for planting that seed in your head. Did not take long to marinate. Lol. Awesome jacket, no doubt.

Of course , JM! you know I always very jealous about your Vanson collection, I bought this for substitute my LW J23, just for keeping my membership at D-pocket brotherhood.

Call me crazy, I just scored Vanson ******** Highwayman after talked to Constantin from Vanson, he weighted the jacket and it's solid 8 lbs.

******** is my favorite in their Rocker line. It's the best of the bunch. Less flare than R'n'R, equally functional.

Really nice Hh! Cant wait to hear your thoughts on this one. Another ******** is on the radar.

Thanks! Better grab their old competition leather before it's really gone!

Really nice. I like the Dehen cardigan at the bottom of the page, though I guess the price of it will be close to that of a blue label Aero jacket...

Is it going to be your retirement gift to yourself?

You can get vintage ones in your size for dirt cheap Craig with no damage. In great condition on Ebay. They're rarely over 100$ if you have patience, different colours too.

You're absolutely right! I shall wait till the New Year but there's a whole load of bargains to be had.

I had a 689H for years. I loved it but it was one size too large so I always fought with it and sold it a few months ago. Great jacket.

It has quilted insulation and I wore it as a winter jacket in -20C Canadian winters so it may be a bit warm for Australia.

I'm very pleased to report that after a soak, stretch and dry routine, the waist width on my Cascade increased from 17.5" to 19". I see no problems with the hem stitching.

Before and after pics below. You *may* be able to see a little expansion from the back. It's subtle visually, but the fit is much more comfortable now. Unqualified success.
