    Show us your Vanson Jackets

    Cool jacket, Monitor! I have a very similar version, the Insurrection/ThurstonBros. House Deluxe. I really like the brass hardware of yours much more than the nickel that for some reason is specified on the Deluxe one. It was even starting to grow on me.......until you posted yours.......:)...

    Vintage Herm's Leathertogs- Epaulets on a Cafe Racer?

    I have that jacket, in black! Two of my best friends worked in the men's-wear dept. of a large department store while attending college in the early 80s, and they bought it for me as a gift. There was this one young lady who was also working her way through college by staffing the women's...

    Layering OVER a leather?

    I have some Filson wool-lined jackets that can fit over both me and anything I might be wearing. The combined layers will keep me quite toasty.

    Hiding stitching (needle) holes in leather - can it be done?

    A friend of mine owned a leather police jacket, and when he changed agencies the original patches had to be removed. He claimed that all was fixed by using some type of a "gum" cement in the holes. I never actually viewed the repair job, though.

    ^^So we both learned to tie a tie at the same place?

    The Indiana Jones jacket. Much hype, little substance?

    Good job, but you might want to shorten the tie just a bit. That really is a pretty cool recreation image.

    Schott Leather Quality

    I agree, that is strange way to size things. I thought they had a 613, or a 615, or something similar that they marketed as the "original" slim sizing from the early 20th century. Have you looked at Vanson jackets for something that might fit?

    Schott Leather Quality

    Schott does still offer some "classic" slim-fitting models in the Perfecto line.

    Diamond Clothing Buco J100 review.

    And yet, there are even members of this forum who have repeatedly stated that as much as they would like to own "X" or "Y" jacket, it is the fear of being seen as a wannabe in...the uninformed opinions of random pub patrons, as well as the general public, that keeps them from owning, or at least...

    Diamond Clothing Buco J100 review.

    I wonder what the stitching looked like in the lining of Indiana Jones' jacket. The lining in Carlos840's jacket is sewn to the leather, nothing is sagging below the hem, and I doubt anyone found inside the pub when Carlos arrives would comment on the stitching of the inside lower hem. They...
