Catch and release here on an immaculate Vanson C2 - very similar to the model E just missing the side laces. This ******** Vanson is made of stunning competition weight Cowhide. Very grainy and thick, with no odors, split seams, or odd creases. Just a nicely broken in jacket the has one tiny scrape on the back RH sleeve as noted in the 4th photo. Brass hardware and all in good working order.

I took a chance with the jacket via ebay given the "42" tag size and minimal dimensions provided. However, this has quite short sleeves, and both back & torso. Ideally this will fit a person under ~ 5' 8" tall. Also note this has the thick quilted lining that is fixed, not removable, so it's also going to be quite the warm jacket. This also may affect the fit a little. There is a Vanson patch on the RH Sleeve and a Triumph Badge on the LH Sleeve. Received today, for sale today and I cannot get it on or zipped up. Hope this finds a great new home!

Asking $350 shipped CONUS - what I have in it. PayPal F&F for an established members here. Otherwise add 3% so net to me is $350.

Tag size 42 please see detailed photos with dimensions in addition to what I offer below, some aspects of this jacket due to leather thickness and lining make pit to pit and shoulders hard to measure.

Pit to Pit - 21.5"
Shoulders - 17.25"
Back length - 23.5"
Torso - 23.5 or 21" (see photos)
Sleeve - 23.25"

Just to add in I will ship overseas for ~ 65-85 USD; but will disclose the actual purchase price when doing so.

I purchased this jacket some time back and am going to catch and release with offer for the same price I paid at $350 shipped. The condition and measurements are as described, except I would measure the shoulders closer to a typical size 40 / 42 jacket at maybe 18.5" - 18.75" depending on how you hold the tape. The only modification I made was carefully removing the patches with a stitch remover. They removed clean and without damage / residue except if you look close you can see the small outline holes of the stitching. Hopefully the pictures show up with the measurement and small patch stitch holes.

This is a great jacket, but I don't feel comfortable wearing this style versus my other more subdued highwayman.
