Thank you, It really is! I wonder if this was the time period in which Vanson got its hides from Phoenix Leathers. I'd love to learn more about their past leathers.

Had to wear it today, just received from a FL member. Older rare Chestnut / Tobacco Vanson Model F. I'm in love. Competition weight, has the label from 1978-1982, the one after the white label. Great soft thick leather.
Jacket arrived in great condition, ahead of schedule. If anyone ever gets a chance to buy from this guy, do not hesitate. I couldn't be more impressed and thank you!
@ton312 definitely furthered my addiction to Vanson, showing various stylish jackets, and he models them very well. Made me realize their jackets can be just as stylish as they are functional. In fact I just bought his old Model E from another FL member.

Your posts are what got me into Vansons in the first place. Definitely love the older ones. I've bought 10 jackets this year and you're tempting me for number 11 :) If this was a 42 I'd be unable to resist. You seem to have a knack for getting the best ones.
A bit of a deal...original style Vanson Model A with Rayon lining, new on Vanson site, 25% off, which I believe applies to all the models they are discontinuing. This Model AZ2 is competition weight and comes with a zip-in zip-out liner. $486 new.

Today, wearing a Schott 141 I scored for cheap a while back, because it was missing the zip out liner. Phone call to Schott revealed it's a 2010 model, last year of the cream colored soft pocket liners. I love my Vanson's more for their fit and durability, but I do love this jacket. Comfy soft...
Still looking for a Vanson Raid? The measurments may be good, I've heard conflicting things about the cut of the Raid but some say it fits loosely for it's tag size. This one is a 42. Seller is pretty proud of it, 93 model competition weight, built to his measurements with a tag size of 42...
1993 model Vanson Raid size 42, listed at only $649 plus shipping.

Not my listing. I think it's way too high for my taste, but it is a rare jacket, so I figured it was worth calling attention to it. I offered 449 plus tax & shipping, was declined. Tips...
