    Show me your favorite jacket

    My favorite jacket would have to be my Vanson Comet PLU-3. I sold it, regretted it and thankfully had the opportunity to buy it back.

    Langlitz Prices Go Up May 1st

    I bought my Columbia March of last year. In March of 2013 when I was in Langlitz purchasing the jacket, John told me at that time that the prices on jackets were about to jump the following weekend. Out the door, my 10 pocket padded Columbia with belt came to $1,400.00. Now... wishing I had...

    Favorite Motorcycle Riding Jackets In Your Collection

    My Vanson Comet PLU-3. I puchased it off the rack at Insurrection a few years ago and sold it to purchase a Langaliz padded Columbia. I had the opportunity to buy it back so of course I jumped at the chance. Now I've got both the Langlitz and Vanson in my collection. As much as I like the...

    CHP / Columbia jackets

    That columbia is black cow with brass hardware. It feel's like it pushes 15#. Thought it fit well for off the rack. Waiting for a nice rainy day to break it in.

    I want a real sweater.

    Here I am in my custom Liberty Motor Wear sweater. They're thick and warm. You can get them in wool or acrylic. But they're not cheap. From the front: http://libertymotorwear.com/category/sweaters Or there's a place in Los Angeles who also makes them. http://nlamc.blogspot.com/

    Insurrection's PLU-3!!!

    The Vanson is a great jacket and the folks at Insurrection were great in getting it fit correctly. I truly believe they have a vast knowledge of their stock and know how a jacket should fit. However, I wanted something a little bit roomier so I could fit a sweater or hoodie underneath...

    CHP / Columbia jackets

    CHP / Columbia jackets

    I'll be making the drive down from Seattle to Portland day after tomorrow. I'll be looking to pick up a pocket padded Columbia. My Vanson PLU-3 comet is a 46, but it's a little tighter than I like to have my riding jackets. My Langlitz will be large enough to where I can wear a medium thick...

    Insurrection's PLU-3!!!

    This jacket is the competition weight cowhide Comet PLU-3. "The Comet PLU-3 is based on the original Vanson Comet cafe' racer jacket, but it has three extra inches of body length and a double-ended front zipper to accommodate a comfortable riding position."

    Insurrection's PLU-3!!!

    It's funny, I was researching leather jackets and did a google search for the Vanson Chopper jacket and came across a different thread where someone was looking to unload a Langlitz that they're no longer using. I registered for the site and while waiting for my account to be approved and...

    Insurrection's PLU-3!!!

    Thanks for the kind words. Not sure why the needed to add the kink. I know a lot of folks really don't like it, but I really like the angle it puts the cones in.

    Insurrection's PLU-3!!!

    For the record, that's not Faster in that photo. How do I know? ...because it's me. Also, it's not a Thruxton, it's a modified Bonneville T100. Here's another photo of the bike from the side: And another picture of me in my Vanson Comet:
