    Vanson Enfield - size 42 - black

    The "common" measurement would be 4 inches over chest size/2, so 46 inches/2=23 inches. The Vanson Comet is a very slim-fitting jacket and is not representative of their usual sizing.

    Alpaca aviator vest

    I, along with many of my riding buddies, have found that a nice heavy vest worn over a leather jacket will indeed help to insulate one from the cold. I use a Carhartt insulated canvas-duck vest.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    My House jacket is one of my favorites. I hope to be wearing it while riding to old torpedo factories someday. Sounds like a fun trip you guys had.

    Burgundy Leather - Nickel or Brass Hardware?

    Brass, every time, although I do own plenty of black-jacket/nickel-hardware combos.

    High Large Leathers

    Interesting names they have chosen for the product line. I'll bet the jackets age really well. I've been in all of these towns in the last two weeks. By the way, hopefully someone can pass along to the manufacturers that "Stillwater" is one word, not two. Any chance that a "Burns Flat" is on...

    The Flat Head Rider's Jacket

    I too do not care for the color of the stitching. The other features are all hunky-dory with me. I do prefer zip cuffs, though.

    Canvas or leather for new messenger bag?

    I went with a Filson brand canvas field bag. While it has not experienced any downpours, it has seen it's share of light rains with nothing inside getting wet.

    Jacket belt loops with snap closures

    It occurred to me last night that old-time motor officers wore these jackets and required snaps for the reason mentioned. I have never seen anyone actually do this this, though. Modern jackets with which I'm familiar all have non-gusseted vertical zips on the sides, allowing one's duty belt to...

    Jacket belt loops with snap closures

    The belts can more likely shift around when they are worn unbuckled and with the ends just hanging down in that so-rock-and-roll way. It just wouldn't be cool to have someone notice that your belt had one end about 18 inches longer that the other and dangling down past your knees.

    Thedi Padded Cafe Racer in Italian HH

    Quite a good-looking jacket. I could see myself in one. It should be the business when out bike riding.

    Jacket belt loops with snap closures

    I believe the snaps were to allow for the removal of a belt which featured it's own loops, intended to have the jacket's loops snapped through them. Done in this way, the belt would be prevented from rotating about the wearer.
