What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[JonS1967]

Just unboxed half an hour ago. Vanson/MrFrown C2 in Cognac Badalassi.

Still has the shape of the box rather than my torso, but I am so pleased I had to share immediately.

I was pretty worried about sizing, but no way I could do one up.

Hide is absolutely utterly gorgeous, and the hardware and liner are the perfect match. Yes, it squeaks like a rabid squirrel, but this is a head-turner anyway.

True fit photos over the weekend for sure!

Vanson again. I hope I’m not over posting this jacket. Happy Friday!!

Holy mackerel. That is something special for sure. Looks awesome, Tom!

Thank you. I am setting at my desk, wearing the jacket. Don´t usually do that in the house, but I am really honeymooning with this. Starts to drape too.

...unmistakably. My wife makes snarky remarks from downstairs as she hears me squeaking while I claim to be working.

I know we all have the best intentions when it comes to our jackets being the one. We throw claims around like “I’ll never sell this” or ”my journey is over” or my favorite “ I have all the jackets I need” However, in this case with this Vanson I can only hope this is your grail piece or close to it. You sir, are floating in rarified air with this one. The color and just the sheer presence of this C2 are spot on. Congratulations

There are no words. The color of the jacket makes my head spin.

The jacket fits perfectly. The skin looks like armor

This is one great jacket! The navy colour sets it ever so slightly apart from the sometimes brutal black variants.
Also, the CXL looks killer. Hope the knits are up to it in the long run.

Thank you for this! I will give the jacket a lot of wear in the next weeks and play around with the variations. I have taken off the belt for the moment as the flopping buckle gets on my nerve with my Schott. I may put it back on as the belt is much stiffer, so no flopping, and it does change the jacket visually.
And yes - the colour is absolutely beautiful!

Cool. LW make great A2 jackets

Thanks! I am an admirer of everything LW, but both A-2s I have from them are killers.

It's a bit too warm today for the LW Trojan, but I can't resist - it is breaking in so nicely!

So many jackets on this site that are nice but every so often one shows up that is another step up. This is one of those.
