Definitely a Military repro. I did see the black one looks pretty sharp. I would have them do it in Seal Brown. Something like the Aero M422A. The price is really good compared to the Aero.
I'm looking into a G-1 from 5 Star. They have quite a few of them and in your opinion, which one would be the better one to get?

When I purchased my Vanson, Kim at the store told me to use their leather solution after one year. I used it after 2 months, and it really did help with the break-in of the jackets. I really did notice that they were easier to bend. YMMV though.
I'm a 48 so a little small for me :) but thanks anyway. I've been looking, but the CEO, CFO has forbidden me to buy any more black leather jackets. I need to come up with creative scenarios now to bring leather in the house.
I've been looking at Taylors Leatherwear, and they look like real utilitarian jackets, definitely not fashion wear. Don't get me wrong, they look good too, but their primary function is workwear. For the price, you can't get any better or tougher jacket than what they sell. Looks like if you...
Well, after 7 months of waiting, I finally got the ANJ-4 from Aero. This is a serious jacket, heavy and very comfy. Very soft inside. Definitely seem warm, but since we're out of the Winter, I can't really tell you how warm. It's fairly chilly today, 52F and I wore it outside. Didn't...
Vanson sleeves are longer since their jackets are designed for motorcycle riding. Zip up the sleeves and lean forward with your arms outstretched like you're riding a bike. If the sleeves go to your wrist, then they are sized correctly.
The Enfield is supposed to fit a bit larger, but like...
This catalog is amazing. Why can't their website look like the catalog? All this information should be on the website. They had a vast number of riding jackets, wow!!!
Wow, that's the jacket you buy when learning to ride a bike. When you fall and it saves your skin, you won't cry that you ruined a nice jacket!!! It's on sale for 299 for small sizes!
Two things:
1) I'm sorry but that jacket belongs to your girlfriend now. You lost privileges to it.
2) I'm seriously tempted to add a snap to my Vanson CHP for the belt.
I also chose to go Thurston due to their fitting process. I agree that Carrie knows how these jackets fit and you have a higher percentage of getting it right if it's your first time. Cost will be slightly higher due to the shipment of fitting jacket and their premium, but if I had to send the...
I really wanted one of LW's ANJ-4 jackets, but the price was 2x of what Aero wanted. I couldn't justify the cost. I'm sure LW's ANJ-4 is a beast, but Aero's is not slouch either. My Vanson Enfield in CW is about 6ish pounds and feels tough as nails, and that cost me 6 bills. Maybe someday...
