Vanson jacket appreciation

The E fits you much better, aside from length the c2 almost seems like 1 size up from the E, way too puffy in the back and sleeves, and yeah the quilting looks good as does the slightly shorter length but imho overall it doesn’t make up for the fit difference.

I'd like to hear what others think

Both are great but the dialled-in fit of the E is hard to beat IMO. The added length wouldn’t bother me.

…but you’re welcome to sell me whichever one you like least

That looks like an older and different cut of the model E than the 2022 version I had. The 2022 Model E has wider sleeves and contouring side panels under the corset lacing. It fits almost the same as the Model B in one size down.

​

Anyways, the model E jacket you have fits you a little better than the padded C2.
