Hello
I am a new Member and have been unable to find a good source for broken zipper pulls.
Does anyone have a source for original looking pulls on Vanson jackets?
thanks

Hi! Not to sound condescending but why don't you contact Vanson?

I would also like to find chain pulls, like the old Talons or similar. And no, I couldn't find any on eBay.

I guess direct communication to Vanson is the logical choice. I know MASH Militaria have some NOS pulls available for old military jackets. They seem to have bits and pieces available not listed on their website. I bought a NOS Talon pull for an A2 jacket from them recently.

I guess I am conditioned from working at a dealer myself.(auto)
Like a bushing or a seal is 12 dollars and if you go to transtar in Van nuys its 1.79
I was going to call them anyway tomorrow for a missing Vanson patch
so I will ask. It would be nice to get some of the cool really nice ones found on their HH.

I know what you mean... Which Vanson zipper pull is it? Vanson is using all sorts of brands lately, but mostly anything they use can be obtained through YKK. I think their chain pulls are all YKK.

Bill, I would prefer the chain pulls, second pic (these are the type Vanson, Schott, etc. is currently using) but the pull on the first photo is really cool! What is that? I assume it's a replacement?

By the way, what jackets are those?

The chain pull is from a Vanson comet and the other is from a jacket that popped up on an ebay buy it now and I
jumped on the chance to own it. Its a Vanson HH that I have not seen before.
