    Opinions on Current Production Ducati Corse C5 Jacket by Dainese? What’s not to like?

    You guys crack me up! That Zoolander pic says it all. Agreed. The branding is over the top. I just bought a Tech Air 5 vest, so I’ve used up my monthly allowance anyway. Should be getting my Guzzi back from my friend’s garage soon and will most likely be back on that bike for commuting, so that...

    Opinions on Current Production Ducati Corse C5 Jacket by Dainese? What’s not to like?

    Hello, I hope everyone is doing well and is enjoying the early fall weather! All is well here! I would love to hear what people think of these jackets. I have no personal experience with Dainese jackets, all of my motorcycle jackets being a vintage Cal Leather, a Vanson Sportrider, and a cheap...

    Cal-Leather Belt Loop Snaps

    I hope that I’m not rehashing old ground here, but I am curious how the belt loop snaps on vintage Cal-Leather jackets factor into dating and assessing the jacket. I know, from looking at postings here, of two type: exposed brass colored snaps, and black painted silver colored snaps (usually...

    I’ve decided to keep the jacket. So for now it’s off the market. It’s a nice complement to my other Cal. Thanks for the interest and the great educational responses! Cheers, and Happy New Year!

    That’s cool. How can you tell with this Cal? It just looks black to my ignorant eye. Thanks

    FS: Cal Leather LAPD style jacket with Duty Belt, size 46

    For sale: Cal Leather jacket with Boston Leather duty belt. The jacket feels to me like a 46 size as it’s a little big in the shoulders for me (I’m a 44). Selling as I have another Cal that fits me better. The belt is marked 40 and has seen very little use. It works great with this jacket. The...

    Vanson One-Piece Leather Motorcycle Racing Suit

    I’m selling this for a friend. At one time it was a rental at a local motorcycle shop. It looks to be an older suit as it has Vanson brass zippers, and I believe that Vanson has been using nylon zippers for a while. It has definitely be well used, but does not appear to have been in any crashes...

    Vanson AR3 or Mk2 CSRX SportRider Jacket?

    Thank you very much! After much deliberation I’ve gone ahead and ordered the Sportrider jacket along with the Sportrider pants. Woohoo! This will be my first set of high end riding gear. My riding jacket for a while has been an old Cal-Leather LAPD, and it’s great, but I wanted to upgrade to...

    Hello good people, I hope everyone is well and happy and doing OK. I’m looking for a little input on a jacket purchase that I about to place with Vanson. I am ordering a pair of SportRider pants and I want to pair them with a jacket. Both jacket and pants will require a special order to add...
