    Vanson Mark II Cobra - 46

    A very nice, pre - 2000 Vanson Mark II Cobra that I purchased from the original owner a couple years back via ebay. Nicely broken in, true heavy-weight, old-school Competition Weight cowhide that has broken in as a very soft, comfortable, grainy reality that still would protect very well should...

    Catch & release on this fun, interesting Vanson Star leather jacket. It's been cool revisiting this style, however I am ready to move it on, I have my eyes on something else so this and a couple others need to go. See the full review here...

    Flipping jackets and the spirit of the lounge

    Interesting discussion indeed here. I have a personal example of being a bit "burned" and it came - suprise suprise, from a newcomer who joined this forum only for the intention of selling a jacket. My jacket to be specific. He only posted 2 times - and those would be in this thread...

    Vanson Star Jacket Review

    Ha! Thanks Monitor - I did something rather similar this evening. I went to Home Depot with this on over a hooded sweatshirt, un-zipped. Didn't even think it would fit that way but it did. No odd comments, or even stares. It's kind-of fun to wear, and I plan to wear it occasionally to gym...

    Vanson Star Jacket Review

    This is a thread I promised myself I would do someday, if I ever got my hands on a Vanson Star Jacket again. Turns out that occurred recently, and it's been a fun, but abrupt reminder of why this style of jacket simply does not work with my body type, at least at this time in my life. But...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I owned one very similar to the one you listed. I found the leather to be very simlar to Fox Creek - and kind of "spongy" of feel. "Naked cownhide" i believe is the term. Otherwise it was nice but too large overall for me so I moved it along.

    Ordering a custom Areo cafe racer

    I hope it loosens up for you, to me that's a "sausage casing"... If you like that fit, so be it, but I could not and will not try it anymore. Other than being overly snug, it looks good. I do suspect you'll be putting a different zipper in it soon.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I specced up an ILLINI jacket in honor of University of Illinois, and kept the body as Indigo Raw Denim, wtih Orange leather sleeves & Dark Blue leather for the collar, and it seemed to come together quite nicely. Really a neat website & idea here.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I may just do that Tony - it was ~ 1.5 weeks back when I saw it. I have no idea the size. Being quite dry I didn't risk trying it on at all

    Not sure what this is, it's in an Antique shop in Clinton, Ia. "The Broken Spoke" - 563-243-2296 Will not fit me - but never heard of "Sport Jack" - Tag states Front Quarter Horse Hide, looks pretty dry to me. They are asking $125 for it.
