Oh dang... Custom Size 48 Vanson Star Jacket that we just delivered to our customer here in WA! This iconic jacket is truly a piece of motorcycle and fashion history. It comes from Vanson's motorcycle flat track days in the 1970s and 1980s, and became a fashion staple in the 1990s. Remember when motorcycle racers inspired huge fashion trends?!?

Now that is sweeeeeet Carrie. I had a pair of Vanson leather riding pants back in the day. The quality was 2nd to none. Actually I gave them to my brother when I stopped riding. He still uses them and they look great 20 25 years old.

Here's a great photo that we took for a customer who asked to see three of our Thedi leather colors side-by-side--Black Horsehide, Dark Brown Horsehide and Caffe Buffalo! The photo demonstrates the color of the Dark Brown Horsehide relative to the Caffe Buffalo and Black Horsehide...the Dark Brown Horsehide is a deep, chocolate brown that will age beautifully.

Check out our Thedi catalog here--https://www.thurston-bros.com/collections/thedi-leathers

Hi Carrie, I'm in the process of replacing my Vicenza Board Racer and I'm wondering about the various linings.

My previous BR had a lightweight OD green cotton lining (living in SoCal) which I was happy with...nevertheless, can you post up some side by side pics of the other lightweight cotton linings for comparison?

TIA Joe

Absolutely lovely jacket! An Irvin is definitely on the bucket list, and will be a much appreciated accessory when I buy my next car: a Miata or other top down sports car. I love my ANJ-4 that I bought from you, but there is a rakish, sporty quality to the Irvin that's unique. Timeline is 4-5 years and I'm weighing all options, but that ginger shearling and the realism of the zips in those pictures answers a lot of my questions.

Here's the fit photo on this jacket...looks good!
