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

    Yeah, you are a 38. This 40 you can get away with but my personal experience with Vanson is, they grow bigger with break in, relaxing leather giving here and there, this jacket is one size too large, after break in, it will be 1.5 sizes too large. edit: body from front does not look too bad...

    Bill Kelso's exciting new jacket line-up 2024

    Bill Kelso is lost on me. Fancy their California Half-Belt but neither in squeaky Badalassi nor in Vicenca (or whatever they call it) for the money they are asking. If they offered their jackets in some nice russet or dark brown goatskin for 700-800 GBP, I‘d probably buy one or two of their...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Johnson Leather Barneveld Remix in 4-4.5oz Horween Petrol Steerhide. One poor attempt of catching the true color and one quick fit picture on my way out to town.

    Aero Roughout Jerky Horsehide Type III, Size 42: "The Roughneck Brawler"

    The way their pricing goes up the past years, I would expect as much as go the extra yard for the customer. They are a 1000 GBP a piece now, that‘s two Vansons or a fully customized Johnson Leather.

    For Sale: Field Leathers Highwayman style jacket Size 42 Navy Shinki USD $600

    Now, that was quick! Looking forward to seeing details on the A-2ish style, you sure make me check out Classifieds very frequently these days :D But I guess I already hit jackpot with the steerhide JL.

    For Sale: Buzz Rickson G-1 A Pritzker and Sons Repro Size 42 Seal Goatskin Like New condition USD $725

    Again, very tempted, I love the shorter and wider but heavily tapered at the waist fit, much more so than the AnJ-3 in Shinki you sold just yesterday. Out of these two, this one here would‘ve been it for me, Shinki or not. Alas, I am awaiting delivery of a Vanson Stadium and still have to break...

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    It‘s gorgeous and I wouldnt change a thing about these knits. They work well with both brown and black leather and black knits will look not work very well with that light brown leather imho. Olive is the much better balance between the two sides of the jacket.

    For Sale: Buzz Rickson's G-1 style flight jacket "AN6552" Model number BR80144 Size 42 USD $375

    Restarted my computer to get a good look at this but it appears to fit true to size and looks well-fit on you, so much likely too big on me. Judging by the Barneveld Remix, it is the ones that are snug on you that might work for me. Alas, not this one. Shame. Fantastic offer and I love the leather.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Has this one arrived yet? Looks fantastic, super functional design and very cool breeze with the hood. I had already admired your Roots jacket, you getting a JL custom version is just perfection!

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    This thread deserves a bump. Here is me in my Johnson Leather Barneveld Remix in Horween 4.5 oz Petrol Steerhide. I received this from Canuck Panda because it was a bit snug on him I believe. I‘m very happy with how it fits me. Very lucky find. And Canuck is a real gentleman to deal with, chrck...

    Short leather motorcycle jacket

    Have you looked at Vansons Model A? It is relatively short in the front and has a backdip so it still covers you when being forward on the bike. Best of both worlds if looking at Comet and Model B. It is 1.5“ shorter in the front than the Model B. Underarm gussets, action back, there is a...

    Which leather jacket for motorcycle (preferably brown) ?

    Buy the Vanson. They also have a less fancy but probably more abrasion resistant brown leather that is basically their Conp Weight but in brown. Send them a message and ask for brown leather options available. I am 1,78m tall and 80 kg and I wear the Enfield in size 38. I also own a number of...

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    I ended up ordering my 3rd Stadium jacket (love the style and now I have it for all seasons and weight fluctuations lol) and a Thunderbird. Idk yet how much I'll wear the later, the cross zip is a fairly bold style and I feel myself rather drawn to the here around less popular baggy flight and...
