    FS: Vanson Stormer/Iron&Resin Collab Wax Canvas Riding Jacket S NWOT

    I have a Stormer... super nice jacket. That's an interesting collaboration... They do run slightly large. I'm 5'11", 190lbs, 44" chest and a large is slightly roomy on me.

    Leather Satchel, Natural Bridle Question

    I'm definitely not going with the large... I'm fairly familiar with this style. I agree that it's not the end all be all though... I do use a waxed canvas messenger bag most of the time but don't like bringing it to more formal meetings. My softsided briefcase needs replacing though as the...

    Leather Satchel, Natural Bridle Question

    Thanks for the reply! I'll probably go with the bridle option. Unfortunately I got in at the $400 price point, although typically in the last day of the campaign a few backers drop out and you can usually move up to the early backer slots if you're quick. Brand reputation is unknown as you say...

    Leather Satchel, Natural Bridle Question

    I have a soft sided leather briefcase that needs replacement... It was a graduation gift from high school many years ago, and is made out of some sort of bonded leather that doesn't look so sharp after being scuffed up (unlike a whole grain leather). I've been thinking about this bag...

    Contacting Logan's Closet

    I sent the e-mail to one listed at Logan's Closet. I put in for a FilmJackets registration but have yet to be approved. Can't send him a PM through Fedora Lounge as I don't have access privileges for that... If you get a response from him could you ask for a good e-mail I could send one to...

    Vanson Horsehide Enfield

    Fairly lightweight hide from what I'm used to. Based on the untrimmed leather panels in the slip zips it measures 1.1mm with my calipers. And that's being generous, with the calipers just starting to grab the leather and give friction if moved back and forth... If I pinch the calipers all the...

    My new (to me) Vanson Model B in brown!!

    Wow great jacket! Thanks for posting. I agree the sleeves look a tad short, but hopefully hold in place well with the zips down. I like the color... if you do end up contacting Vanson could you please find out what color that is? They have odd names for their browns, and I think I'll end...

    Vanson Horsehide Enfield

    Does Dantheman run Logan's Closet? I've seen their jackets and was considering putting a custom order in through him... I've heard good things. After some thought looks like I'll return the jacket. I think my fiancé put it best when she said "it's okay but not the coolest thing ever." I get...

    Vanson Horsehide Enfield

    Pictures below. You can see how the leather is a bit "crinkly" in texture. Color is "tan" which I would call a reddish brown. Took the photos in afternoon sunlight so artificial lighting wouldn't skew the colors. I had the sleeves zipped open in the unzippered shot so you could see how they...

    Vanson Horsehide Enfield

    Hello - New forum member, although I've been a lurker for quite awhile. I've owned a Vanson perforated leather jacket for about 8 years now in a modern sportrider cut (it is their Properf Stallion). It's a superb jacket, fits me like a second skin, and works well for motorcycling the Florida...
