Vanson catalogue

Agreed! How cool is it? Would look great after a few miles and a handful of bar fights!

Meaning one weekend??

Perfection indeed, which is why I had to have both A & B.

It was such a nice and warm day today, I just couldn't resist. Went to the local store to get some cleaning stuff, ended up miles away from the city. That's all over though as the weather here will turn **** starting tomorrow...

Oh yeah!!! I got to ride a bit over a hundred miles that same day, wearing the Vanson/Thurston-spec Model B House Deluxe. One of my favorites.

Ha! I was thinking Tuesday night outside McDonalds next to the skate park.

Yes, I was just looking through this also. Interesting that they are producing most of the new models in the lighter leathers, which are right around 3 oz instead of the 3.5 oz comp weight - probably a good move as even a lot of riders would be happy with 3 oz steerhide.

Yes, the 3 oz. leather will be more appealing to some, but the 3.5 oz. competition weight is such a nice leather. Takes a long time to break it in, but once broken in, it is soft and supple, a real treat to wear.

Vanson will be at the Union Garage in Brooklyn today and Saturday. Kim will be there.

Has anyone pulled the trigger yet? You could do a lot worse than ordering a Daytona,Classic or Portland for the bike. The Royale looks great in Octagon, as does the 50s car coat. It's a nice change looking at sub USD$1100 jackets. A very,very nice change!

I'm very tempted. If I pull the trigger it'll probably be between the Daytona and the Mohawk. I like the Classic too, but I tried one on a few years ago and was between M and L so it'll probably not work for me. That Anniversary jacket is the shiznit, ain't it?! Don't know if I can pull it off though!

I saw! Such a shame I'm halfway round the world these days. When I lived in NYC, Union Garage was my regular hangout joint, shooting the breeze with Chris, ogling the 70s Italian bikes at Moto Borgotaro next door ...
