Hi everyone,
As I've been able to get this jacket in a bigger size, I'm selling my Vanson Model E (Highwayman) in size 42.
For sizing reference, I'm 185cm, 88kg and my chest is 112cm. I can still wear this one with a tshirt, becoming restrictive when wearing anything else beyond that when zipped, so sizing up has been the best option.
I've emailed Vanson and they've confirmed this jacket was made in June 1995, in their competition weight (adding pictures of the graining too!). I include the belt (which comes with a Vanson leather tag that does not match the jacket's serial number) and a mouton collar.
What can I say about it? Quality is great. Leather is thick, still stiff and a bit squeaky, I haven't worn it much and it seems whoever the previous owner was didn't wear it much either so it feels like it's still new. The mouton collar makes it the cherry on top for me as I love how it looks and, while it is detachable, I personally would always keep it on. The belt, like the mouton, is removable but unlike the mouton, I've preferred not wearing it. If this jacket had fitted me right, it would had never made it here to the Classifieds!
Measurements:
P2P: 58cm / 22.5"
Shoulders: 49cm / 19"
Hem: 50cm / 19.5"
Back: 70cm / 27" in the middle || 66cm / 26" on the sides (check pictures and the difference will be clear)
Sleeves: 65cm / 25"
This jacket's appearances in the forum:
With a hoodie on (too tight for me but doable)
Quite good with just a thirt
Fit check thread
Selling it for 600€ plus shipping PP F&F from EU (I calculate it will be around ~50€ within EU or to UK but we can ensure via DM).
I'll add more pictures in the consecutive messages, but feel free to ask for any additional pictures and my DMs are open for anyone interested
