I’ll meet you at Punk n Donuts. Anarchy!I must be bored...I finally broke down and bought a Chicago cop coat. Cheap, which is good because I hate 90% of the design. The second shot sold me though. Maybe good for a real winter weather beater. Made in the US of A Taylor’s.

LOL...Yeah I think The Alley used to sell used ones years ago. I know Lost Eras on Howard in Rogers Park had an entire basement full of retired cop jackets in various stages of decay. which reminds me that I really should stop in there. It's a pretty cool place.I’ll meet you at Punk n Donuts. Anarchy!
Cool, did you make any additions to your aero? I added a black mouton collar and a full belt. It’ll be gnarly!Lol i also have one from aero on order too
Vanson was just too long.
Stock aero chips back length was 23.5 (no dip) i added an inch and will probably come out 24. Which i think for its purpose is great. Im 5 ft 11 in 170 lbs
stock vanson back was 27 and front was way too long for riding. I went custom minus 2 inch length and plus 1/2 in sleeve. Stock sleeve was 25. Other than that liked the leather and liked the snaps. They are plated dark grey/black and not painted black

No just went pretty much stock. Tumbled black cxl and standard nickel hardware. What does the belt look like? Ones they use on the other moto jackets?Cool, did you make any additions to your aero? I added a black mouton collar and a full belt. It’ll be gnarly!
I didn’t ask but I’d imagine it’ll be like a J106 belt alright. Yours is the same as mine, I added an inch to the back length as well and went for tumbled black CXL, which seems to suit this style for some reason.No just went pretty much stock.
