Nice jacket, but that branding on the left chest just kills it for me.

That's how you sell a jacket. I immediately began calculating and I don't even like this style.

Agreed. I don’t understand it on this particular jacket.

Lol. Yep. One of the few Vanson I dislike, but the presentation and that beautiful CW almost snagged me. Nice price too.

Taubers. It’s been posted but I wanted to add the P2P measurement pic. This is a stunning jacket at a great price.

Nice looking Vanson CR on Poshmark. Listed for $250, but the seller just sent out an offer for $220 and free shipping. Size 36, but I see the seller provided measurements of a 20" inch chest and shoulder-to-shoulder of 18", which seems like it would work for a 38 too. Although it does look to taper some.

I'm content with having one jacket in this style already, but it looks like a pretty neat jacket at a reasonable cost. Supposedly only worn twice.

Awesome CW too. If it fit, at that price with that leather...very tempting.

wow that is nice. I think that p2p looks more like 21 vs 22 she said in the post. and she claims 16 shoulder that's got to be wrong.

I've got 2 Cals like this, but if it were bigger, I'd probably grab it. I need a Taubers to complete the Mt. Rushmore of USA leather LOL. But this is looking like Tshirt only and unzipped. Most have resistance to pass

Yeah, the posted measurements are wacky and this does look like 21”. I wouldn’t resist if it fit. Good luck with that lol

Yes, it is a stunning jacket. I forgot about it. What a steal. Seldom seen detachable collar. Early Taubers Nob Hill label, c.1950. Nice size too. Not sure if it will fit me, but I will let you know in a couple of weeks.

Like I said, I have been pursuing other jackets and forgot about this beauty.

$400 for a high quality horsehide mc jacket with the original collar!

Thanks for posting this reminder!

Yesssss. The master strikes again.

The Cal I bought from John few weeks ago is about this size and it's on the edge of comical for me. If I didn't have a replacement Cal already coming in a larger size, I might have bit just for the collar. Glad it's staying in the family though.

This was a steal. I'm ashamed of myself for this crime and you, my friend, are a accompanist. I would pay $150 for a collar that fit!

Yeah, I'm definitely keeping it in mind. My current CR is an older Fidelity. Solid jacket, but a Vanson with the nice CW hide is an upgrade in my book. I've told myself I won't buy any other jackets until the police jacket that was shipped on the 10th gets in though. So if it sells before I make up my mind, I'm okay with that.

I would agree it’s an upgrade. Imo, Primo CW is up there with the nicest hides. Hopefully it’s still around for you. Ha, I know the feeling too. If someone else snipes it then I can sleep in peace.

All of a sudden I’ve got Curtis Mayfield’s Pusherman playing in my head. You made my day.

That’s the one. I wish the pictures were taken in better lighting. It’s missing the belt right?

Did you see this Kurland? Similar D pocket design. It is also tempting.
