[dan_t]

Brand New, tags attached, size 42.
Price USD$450 (rrp USD$579 + taxes)

***Price INCLUDES international shipping to your door***

Hi,
I took a chance on this jacket earlier this week & purchased it from a retailer who was liquidating some Vanson stock.
It is BRAND NEW and still has tags attached. The warranty has never been registered.
Unfortunately, I just can't see this working for me long term, so better to flip it now, whilst it's still in a brand new condition. The price reflects what I have in it, plus anticipated international shipping charges - I'm not seeking to make anything extra out of this.

Why sell? the back length of 24" is workable, especially if I were to use it on the bike, but in all honestly, I really would prefer additional length (I'm 6' 2").
It also has a wonderful quilted lining, including the sleeves. I figure that this is just going to be too warm for me here in Sydney to get much wear.

Basic measurements (approx);
Size; 42 (fits like a 42)
P2P; 23" (relaxed) to 24" (stretched)
Back; 24"
Shoulders: 19"
Arms; 26"

Brand New, individually numbered & made in the U.S.A.

Made from Vanson's mid-weight "Firenze" cowhide, it is extremely comfortable to wear right out of the box.
Make no mistake, it is still a hefty jacket, weighing in at approximately 2.4 kgs.

Happy to entertain trades for another cross zip style jacket in a similar condition / size.

This Firenze looks nicer than the new Comp. weight. Really cool jacket.

My brother has a Firenze Model A or B, can't recall. It is the only jacket he wears...it looks awesome.

As does this one.

3 x ‘looks awesome’ (& it is!).
Anyone want to own it....?
p.s. if this doesn’t sell, then I’m quite ok to keep it. This IS a stunning jacket & brand new.

Bump before potentially withdrawing from sale.
I'm thinking that I'll hang on to this and try it out throughout our winter if no-one is interested.

No interest in a brand new Vanson...?

If I didn't buy Regius's Eastman Luftwaffe 3 weeks ago, I'd be all over this. I had the same exact jacket and hide that I sold back in 2013 and have been kicking myself ever since.

How's the wrist diameter on this one? I live 3 miles up the road from Vanson's factory, and tried on a comp weight one at one of their open houses last year. Fully zipped, it actually constricted my wrists slightly, and I have really skinny wrists for a 42-44. It was a surprise, because my older one in the lighter hide had no such issues w/fit.

They are a little narrow, but then you have the zip to adjust them to make a perfect fit.

Bump, still available

Thanks for getting back man (just seeing this now. If times were a tad more lucrative I would be all over this. In actuality I’m in the market for a used jacket. On the beat up side even better.

Vanson is surprisingly underappreciated at used market, I am not happy about that.

 

[BBaptiste]

To be honest I don’t have much interest in new one. Not that it wouldn’t be considered if the price was right but chances are it would be out of my price range. I’d love to keep things under $400. I checked in with a friend of a friend at Vanson and he assured me that this wasn’t a pipe dream.

Still unworn & brand new.
Available for immediate shipping. Let me know if there are any questions.

Thanks for the response but I’m really looking for a used one
