    Do you have pictures of the green rough out? Sounds very intriguing.

    Which One Fits Better?

    Both are fine to wear as is but I prefer the look of the first, no big fan of that bell-shaped fit that‘s going on with the second one.

    Casual double rider jacket - SB Oakland, or Aero King of the Road?

    Well done. The natural leather will only get better with time, too.

    How Many of You Placed Orders During Vanson's Recent 10 Off Event?

    I bought two Vansons in their last 10% off sale three months ago. Still waiting for deliverly. Ordered a Stadium with shorter sleeves and a stock size 38 Thunderbird. Still eyeing the Maverick in that greyish roma hide and the Dakota in size 38 (my size 40 is sadly too large since I lost 15 lbs...

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

    Amen and end of discussion. The claim is absurd.

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

    Just look at the pictures you posted yourself, all of them jackets fit very lose about the back, giving room and billowing and ofcourse this is picking apples vs whatever, bkt if you want a more accurate comparison, compare fit of Vanson Model B vs Vanson Enfield, identical jacket apart from...

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

    I‘m with tony here. A leather seam does more than merely turning two slaps of leather into one. It also stiffens the leather along that seam because of the folded leather along the seam. Anyone breaking in a leather jacket will notice that areas with many seams are much stiffer and harder to...

    Jacket evolution thread

    Looks amazing. It‘s not oven you see a properly broken in molded and faded Lost Worlds and it‘s a great sight.

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    Cost of living in the UK has surely gone up. What I have also noticed is that how ten years ago, Aero was like almost the only leather jacket brand being discussed here and posted pictures of and these days, they cause much less buzz and the Aero share in jacket content has significantly...

    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.

    That's a relief. Kept revisiting this thread all day long...

    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.
