Vintage Vanson C2 just came in. This may be the best-patterned Perfecto-style jacket out there. Soo comfortable. Perfect length. The cowhide is thick and soft. TFL-ers looking for a nice cross-zip really should give the C2 a chance. @dudewuttheheck has already showed what a great jacket it is, for not a lot of dinero. Weirdly, a lot used ones come out of Japan; new ones can be had from Vanson..

It's nice. They should've made the exact same version with the belt.

That jacket looks fantastic. I've been looking for a cross zip and really like the looks of yours. Wasn't on my radar until now. I'm now on the hunt. Thanks.

Look up posts by @dudewuttheheck about his Vanson C2, and maybe his Youtube piece on it. Just an awesome jacket, his is rarer because the hide has more grain. Most C2s are smooth cowhide. Such lovely jackets, totally under the radar (except, apparently, in Japan).
