    Opinion on Motorcycle Jacket Padding?

    Thanks, everyone, for the good advice. I've decided against the padding. The more I look at various pictures of it, it does add a lot of bulk that I don't want and seems funny for my purposes. I was thinking about ordering the CHP, but in Vanson's dark brown. To be honest, though, I'm not...

    Opinion on Motorcycle Jacket Padding?

    I rarely see padding on most of the motorcycle jackets pictured here. I'm referring to the quilted type padding on shoulders and elbows. I was kinda toying with getting a Vanson Colorado, but am now thinking about just getting the Vanson CHP. I don't currently have a motorcyle, so my...

    Has Anyone Seen a Vanson Colorado?

    Thanks for the info. Can you elaborate on how it's a watered-down version of the Langlitz? Is it thinner? It's hard to tell from those pictures, but under the arms look a bit similar to my Enfield. Are they bigger than the Enfield? Thanks again.

    Legendary USA Leather Jackets

    Does anyone know who makes the Legendary USA "Legendary" leather motorcycle jackets? They sell Schott jackets, are the Legendary jackets also made by Schott? Some of them are less expensive, but are made of about 3.5 oz. weight leather. Are they lower quality than a Schott? Thanks.

    Vanson Help

    I spoke to Kim at Vanson a couple of weeks ago about the delivery times on a jacket. She said they had had a little trouble getting hides that were good enough from their tannery. She said they had been having a big rejection rate and that had thrown production behind. So far, it looks like...

    Schott Vintage 585

    I had one and returned it. The leather in the sleeves felt thin to me. The leather also felt "dry". I do have a 184SM and it doesn't feel like this. For the price of a Schott, I decided to go with some better makers. I do like the style, though.

    All the folks that say their Wescos fit like a glove, are you ordering standard sizing in Wescos, or are you sending in the drawings for custom fitting? Thanks.

    I had never heard of them either, until I read JanSolo (I think) mention he had a pair.
