Hi everyone, I’m hoping to tap into the collective knowledge of the Lounge to help identify a vintage Vanson jacket I've been looking at, and to get your expert opinions on its condition. At first glance, the jacket has all the hallmarks of a classic Vanson C2: the asymmetrical zip, three main...

Price: $575 USD Shipped CONUS Only PPFF Hello everyone, Today, I would like to put up for sale my Vanson Chopper Thurston Bros edition, size 40. I purchased it in early 2025 directly from Thurston Bros. It is made from Vanson's Competition Weight leather, in a batch that, in my opinion, is...

Does anyone own one of these jackets? I'd love to hear a review of it and some fit details. It's made to put armor in and I'm considering it for a riding jacket. Also, just another in the rotation jacket rotation out of bike season. I believe they are custom for Butterscotch so I can't find too...

Hello, all! I just bought this 1995 Vanson Enfield, and I can see why it’s such a hyped jacket, especially in the fabled Old Comp Weight™. I was applying some Lexol and I noticed a cut on the right sleeve along with a little scuff on the top of the right shoulder. How big of an issue is this...

Hi team TFL, long time lurker, first time poster! After reading multiple threads, I found myself deep down the rabbit hole, browsing various Japanese sites in the search for the perfect rancher / trucker / type ** jacket. I've just picked up a Vanson Cheyenne in chocolate suede which I...

Based on the Vanson site I think this is an AZ2 in comp weight but may be wrong. I just purchased the jacket on Vinted but I don’t think it’s right for me so looking to move it on OR potentially trade/trade plus cash for a Lewis jacket in size 44. Preference is for sale and would like to...

Are all Vanson cross-zip models (like the C2, Force, MKII California, Bandit, Rock’n’Roll, etc.) based on the same opening shape and lapel design? In other words, do they all share the same lapel width, collar shape, and overall front cut, with differences mainly in details like laces, belts...

Hi all, I'm looking to buy the following Vanson models: C2 MK2 California Bandit D9 Preferably in competition weight leather, either black or brown. I’m based in the EU, so ideally looking for offers within the European Union to avoid high shipping and customs. Looking for sizes 42 to 44...

Hi everyone, I came across this jacket and I’m wondering if it’s an authentic CHP (California Highway Patrol) model or possibly a Vanson variation inspired by it. I’ve attached some photos for reference. Could anyone more knowledgeable help me identify it? Also, what do you think about the...

I tried finding some pictures of Vanson’s Rust Roma leather, but didn’t find much other than their stock photos from their website. Does anyone have a Vanson leather jacket in Rust Roma (Driftwood Tan) that they could post? I found this jacket by searching the forum, but it appears to be a...

Hello everyone! Been a frequent reader on this forum for a while. I finally got a hold of my new (to me) motorcycle jacket! A vanson model F bought through Vinted, here in Europe. I got the jacket for 230€. It's in great shape and fits me really good. Only missing the inside liner. I'm...

Hey everyone I'm selling a very high-quality vintage Vanson Leathers Ike leather jacket in size 46 (L-XL). The Vanson is made in the USA. The retail price at the time was around $800. I am selling it for 300.- I completely refurbished it with great care, and the leather is as soft as butter...

Hey folks! This is just an amazing jacket. Perfect cross zip imo. Sadly letting this one go as I desperately need to reduce my collection. I don't know how old it is but this is definitely stupidly good Competition Weight. Heavy! Still soft and pliable and with beautiful grain. Size 40 and...

Hey folks! I acquired this gem recently, but my Vanson model E just fits me better so this one has to go. Initial asking price : 800eu excluding shipping. Let's see how this goes and how low will I have to drop it until someone shows interest :) One of a kind (I haven't been able to find any...

Hello fellow Loungers, I’m reaching out to get some advice regarding the sizing of a Vanson leather jacket, specifically the C2 model. I’ve been eyeing this jacket, but I have some concerns about whether it will fit me correctly based on the measurements provided. I must admit that i am new in...

I made a mistake. I bought a lightly used pair of Aero leather pants. In appearance, similar leather to a jacket I already own and like. The strangest part is that I got the waist and inseam measure which was exactly my size, but when they arrived, it’s 2 or 3 sizes larger than my normal pants...

Hello all, I am presenting for sale my Vanson Chopper from Thurston Bros, size 42 in Vanson's Comp Weight leather. This jacket is in great condition, being only lightly worn. It has a long way to go in terms of break-in, but remains relatively pliable. This jacket was purchased by me from...
