Their overseas dealers don't seem to stock their leather jacket. AFAIK overseas dealers only sell their regular items like jeans and BR military clothing. I have never seen their leather jacket at the local dealer.
You can take a look at their direct store, Junky Special.
You can’t go by old photographs of random dudes wearing leather jackets. Fact is, almost all clothing back in the day were custom tailored and made by small independently owned producers. Especially garments like suits and leather jackets.
Turned out the 'wedding ring' pull was still available. I bought it for my newest grail which is missing both pulls. I already had one spare which came as an extra with the Kit Karson.
I like Vanson a lot especially at the price point. But I think if you don't ride, there's so called better options for more of a fashion vibe. The two styles you noted if i recall correctly are cross zips, probably no belt and or epaulettes right?

If you want to stay in the Vanson family, see if you get lucky with a used Commando. I've seen the non CXL ones go for sub $500 on here. The cut is really nice and great upgrades from the collab.
Schott has some fashion style cross zips too. Personally I'd stay away from the lambskin ones (Raven I think?), although the Schott one is above your normal mall jacket type lambskin, but I do recall they have a 500 or 600 series leather cross zip without epaulettes and maybe without belt too (Wildcat?).
Don't buy Aero new for your first jacket. There's plenty of barely worn ones on here for 30% off. CXL is amazing but it has it's down sides too You may not like. They look great in pics but wear interesting to say the least. And Aero sizing is all over the place. If you buy one used and need to catch and release, there won't be as much pain. And on the flip side, if you end up liking, you owe me a beer for the money I saved you
NEW MiUSA CXL jacket for 5Star price. Just have to look for them.
I emailed them and according to the rep, they stopped using that lining 10 years ago. I guess I got an older version. They said I can send the jacket in and they can replace it with the current diamond quilted lining that they use now for $195 plus shipping.
