I came here looking for this as Van's passing was posted in VLJ. Van was one of the OG guys I met here and on VLJ - maybe even COW too. We had our share of online jabbing, and while he was a crusty fella, we liked each other well enough for two head strong stangers. When I heard of his wife's...

Length in back is almost long enough, front looks awful. My 2¢

I was "this close" but the pit numbers scared me off after @SpeedRcrX told me hers matched her jackets. Based on that, it would be at least 2" too small in the pits for me. Bummed, but I just don't know about measuring a leather vest vs leather jacket...

@Dickie Teenie - just conversing with Brian the Bootmaker over some custom boots. The Role's are epic. @red devil - it IS a rabbit hole to be sure, but here, leather jacket have such a short period each year that I've gone over to acquiring other gear like boots, belts, etc. Same leather...

Good stuff Wilbur! I still lament the loss of the elk hide JLP Jacket I bought from you. At the time, I was at my largest, and had to flip it. I could wear it today and I am SO bummed I ever sold it...
