Nice jacket. You might want to get a hanger that supports the shoulders. You could end up with lumps in the leather.

Jumping on the rough out train, and the shorts train going to the beach...
Y'2 Leathers TB-139 size 44, the cut has square shoulders paired with boxy body (hem is tag size in inches), there is an extra seam that goes down the sleeves that connects to the shoulder, very cool design.

Yes I know thank you, I need to lengthen my hangers.
Great jacket, yes it’s true. nice grain, much better in the brown version than in the black version

A good song when you appreciate leather jackets without getting too carried away or being too serious

Damn, now I see why this is Stuart’s favorite motorcycle jacket. Somehow they’ve nailed this pattern - everyone I’ve seen in this model has a great fit.
Congrats!

Speaking of leather jacket songs, all New Zealanders of my generation know this one…

This is a very nice song. Reminds me of Green Day for some reason.

1998 Carhartt Detroit. These became crazy expensive since Interstellar. Those in the more rare Navy color go for $400 on ripoff-bay lol. So I got a cheap one in badly faded Tan, bleached it first and then dyed blue. I think I cracked the code on how to very uniformly dye with reactive dyes, so if someone wants to try, hit me up. I may try other colors, lol. I am going to go full @ton312 on these

Another winner as usual!. How do you find the fit, comfort and quality etc compared to other type 3s such as Aero?. Vanson has never been on my radar but that may change.

Today Schott 637 brown or black? Hmm. Maybe a bit too hot. But it's so hard not to wear them...
I can’t really compare to Aero type 3 or any other modern maker cause I have not owned/handled any of them.
But I’m very pleased with this as I am with all my Vanson jackets (I own five). The patterns are among the best in the business in terms of comfort and range of motion. Construction is solid, with a few mistakes here and there. Leather is thick, supple and comes with interesting and beautiful grain.
Only thing I would change would be a little bit shorter in the back and add a bigger front drop. Oh! And a bigger collar. Apart from that, it’s pretty much perfect!

Exactly my thoughts. It's a great looking jacket but why the rant about 'internet jokers'? Just let the jacket do the talking.
