    what maximum hide thickness on motorcyle style jacket?

    Another vote for Vanson Properf for hot weather riding. I picked up one of their new perforated models recently - the DRAC, basically a Drifter with perforated chest that could be zipped close from the inside. Great looking jacket, worked well in warm weather, sadly a little too small for me. A...

    New Roadhouse

    Very humbled to know that! By now I've amassed enough jackets that I don't wear mine as much as I should, but I've worn it quite a bit, put lots of riding miles on it, have even gone down a few times (thankfully not bad ones, mostly dirt road offs and low side slides) - knox armoured shirt...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    ... And here I am earlier today, weekend ride in Bhutan on my '16 Scrambler, mildly-modded. I'm wearing my Union Garage NYC X Vanson Robinson jacket, which is UGNYC's upgunned, armored take on the popular Lightweight Vanson Stormer wax cotton jacket. The Robinson makes a great riding jacket...

    Great bikes! Thanks for sharing your pics I recently picked up a Scrambler too, last of the old generation '16 air cooled 865cc engine. Used to own an '06 Bonnie when I lived in NYC full time but stupidly let it go when I moved back to Asia. But made up for it by my recent purchase! That seat...

    Thank you! Thanks dude! Great jacket! Hey, you're the guy with the black/white Bonnie T100 pic, right? If so, that pic is one of the reasons I've had the Vanson Comet on my radar for so long and why I finally pulled the trigger on this one. :)

    Thurston Italian Vicenza Horsehide Full Grain Veg.-Tanned Horsehide for Aero Jackets

    Hmmm ... this might be the answer to my CR vs BR conundrum! Carrie, what's your advice on Board Racer in this back configuration - mid seam or plain like this one? Also pros and cons of that kidney panel - looks only or serves specific purpose? Thank you!

    Beads, jewels and other adornments on M/C jackets

    ton312 - I like those beads, pretty neat! Edward - shrunken human heads - my late father had a story or two about his days as a young Gurkha officer patrolling the Naga Hills in the 1960s (far northeastern corner of India bordering Burma/Myanmar). Headhunting was officially outlawed but was...

    Thurston Bros. - Official Affiliate Thread

    Awesome detailed review on the finer points of the Chopper. I need to wear mine more often, still some ways to go before it's fully broken in.

    Aero Midnight Blue FQHH

    Fantastic jacket! Love everything about it. I've been debating about a zip-sleeve MC-style Highwayman for a while now, but this Half-Belt hits it out of the park. Monitor is right - I might be one of those guys queuing up at Thurston / Aero with this jacket as a template. Very well done Sir!!!

    A New Schott Model: The 603USA Cafecto

    That jacket looks just awesome Monitor, fits you so well too. Been considering a Schott CAF1 as the last one I tried on fit me so well - should've just picked it up back then and be done with it ... this one looks even better! Confederate Motorcycles are a very niche, limited production American...
