    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    It’s the timeless, legendary clash of wills—a battle destined to echo through the ages. Who will triumph? No one can say for certain… but one thing is undeniable. Songs will be sung, not just of this epic struggle, but of the jacket that defined it. A legend in itself.

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

    After a bit of research I only found one other white Perfecto online and it did not have the shoulder patches. Based on the label, the Bull label with Schott NYC was used from early to mid 1980’s.

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    I received the C2 recently and have been getting to know this model. This is my second Vanson with the first being the Badass Model J, that was a 10 pounder all day with the early 2000’s comp weight leather. This C2 is a good weight, heavy but not Model J heavy I suspect comp weight as well...

    Jacket you “should” like?

    I still have some feelings of regret selling this Legendary USA Black Stallion built by Schott . It fit me well enough, it was hard to obtain so it was a journey , etc, but the shiny HH I just could not get past. Kept it two years and just was not grabbing it to wear .

    Agreed, I have bought 2-3 jackets from him over the last few years. Easy to work with and very fair. He buys a lot of these bigger sizes for his personal collection, he and I wear the 50-52 ones So it’s worked out good for me.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Old school bathroom photos with the Vanson C2 firmly secured, fits nice and feels like it’s going to be easy to wear . Time will tell if this one knocks my Schott 118 off the pedestal I placed it on., but my initial thought is that this one wears better unzipped. And yes, that is indeed a...

    Thanks, will definitely have to post up.

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    Thanks, The seller stated it was from an estate sale so no history from that angle. I compared this jacket to the Vanson web photos and the sleeve zipper pulls and collar snap above the label are the same. Not sure how long ago Vanson made any pattern changes or any other moves with the...

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    Waiting on this C2 to arrive but had to post again because I am looking forward to getting my hands on it. Also thankful it has the belt and the key fob still with the jacket. This will be my second Vanson, the first being the beast Model J. Hoping this leather comes close to that OG comp weight...

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

    The first jacket I posted on TFL, it was an FMC built in Pakistan. I moved it along but it fit me well and had nice thick leather.

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    Anyone know how to decode the Vanson serial number? I would reach out to them but have not had luck in the past. It’s a C2.

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

    I see so many in 36-40 and believe me it’s almost impossible to see one in my big ass size. Looking forward to trying this one and see if it gives my beloved Schott 118 a run.
