Vanson Ike in Horsehide

[handymike]

Anyone have an Orvis Vanson Ike jacket?
I might have accidentally bought one on eBay thanks to my 1 year old grabbing my iPhone...
Any pics or insight?
It's supposed to be horsehide. How does it wear?

If it looks anything like this one, then you owe your one year old a lollipop...

Yeah, that's the one....practically new, worn 3 times. I went to zoom the pictures and somehow he hit the "Buy it Now" .

Did the price hurt? A new one is only slightly cheaper than an Aero, so, y'know, not that cheap.

Half price. Who knows, I haven't had luck with sizing on my Aero or my vintage Hercules off the Bay. Maybe the 1yr old made the right call....

I've heard a lot of great things about Vanson here on the FL. I was thinking about getting them to put in a chest pocket like on the model B (like the Aero HWYMN chest pocket).

Be sure to post some pictures when it arrives. If it works out, you might let your one-year-old make all your selections for you in future!

Yeah, I will ;-)
My 5yr old is already picking our house paint colors.
