    Vanishing point fit?

    No but I think I have enough wind being deflected off of my chest that it’s not a big issue. Definitely happened on my last bike.

    Vanishing point fit?

    So the jacket is sized to be able to accommodate an insulating layer underneath. I think an armored shirt would be too bulky to wear reasonably— I don’t wear armor generally unless I’m doing off-road type terrain, and then it’s time for my full on dorky klim suit. In regards to the wind flap...

    Vanishing point fit?

    I tend to agree with you. I added the shirt tail to add a bit more functionality while hunched over a moto, while still keeping the front of the jacket short enough. If this weren’t my primary riding jacket I think I’d have forgone the tail altogether.

    Vanishing point fit?

    Some updated photos above showing the change in this jacket from about one year of wear. The leather has changed dramatically and I think will continue to do so as it keeps picking up sun, rain, etc.

    Vanishing point fit?

    Yeah, it’s in reference to the 70’s version of the flick. Neil has a good story re. the jacket and the movie here: https://standardandstrange.com/blogs/standard-strange-stories/the-vanishing-point-natural-veg-tan-horsehide-jacket

    Vanishing point fit?

    Thanks for the responses. This is the first time I’ve ever posted on any kind of forum before so it’s pretty awesome to get feedback so quickly. This is also my first time dropping this kind of dough on a jacket, so it’s nice to get some second opinions (do I keep vs sell and start over etc.)...

    Vanishing point fit?

    Hey all, long time lurker first time poster. Recently bought a Simmons Bilt x Standard & Strange collab Vanishing Point jacket. Goal was to get a fit that worked as a functional moto jacket but also looked good walking around. Only a few days of wear/tanning, but the color has already changed...
