Beautiful. I was only aware of them doing pants. Seller has a fcl richmond listed for twice as much but I'd rather have this.

Agreed. I’ve been following that jacket for a long time and hoping something in my size would show up. It hasn’t yet.

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.

Just received this after a smooth deal with the seller and a slightly bumpy ride with Evri(!)

It’s a great jacket and I lucked out on the fit. Comparing it to my other Als, and looking at the rounded top lapels (inc rounded stitching) and lack of ducktail/belt loops, I’m 95% sure this is a Leather Man that lost its label at some point. I think the jury’s still out as to who made these, so it may indeed be an Al….

For you to compare.

The quality of these is excellent (as you know), this one wears a half size down, does yours?.
Al's, Cal and Johnsons have been suggested.

Seller photos but it’s 100% the same. Check the rounded top lapels, the very narrow (and un-cal like) central seams on the waistband and the straight back hem. It has more in common with an Al than a Cal for sure (see pocket placement—Cals are both lower closer to the central seam) but I don’t know enough about JL patterns to comment there…
