They only come in brown, as it says on their website. Or are you discussing having one made in black?

Mark can hand dye the russet goat black, the suede side is left as is.
It's a thin coat of black dye and a clear top coat, the leather scratches and wears down to brown.

Edit: actually i have a pic of one of the experiments he made.

I think that the goat being very pebbly has the potential to look great once the "top of the peaks" start wearing and turning brown and the valleys stay black.

Good choice! I was eyeing this style vanson a while back but backed out for fear of it weighing 15lbs or something ! Curious to see fit pics and how this actually wears
Indeed, I can only imagine how heavy it must be. I have a similar model, made from heavy denim with quilted lining. Don't know how much it weighs, but it's a lot. You might want to train your trapezius muscles in advance :p

Vanson Ike (again) today for an unusual Monday Harley ride north. This was about as far as you could go during the West Australian "lockdown" of recent. Made it our morning coffee stop today.
Jacket is breaking in nicely, perfect for this 6C morning and 18C by 1pm.
Talking in the photo , no wonder those "male modelling" days are behind me haha..
Photo taken by a riding mate on my phone. Not a 'photographer' amongst us...
