looking for the OLD Vanson jacket guide?

[VansonRider]

Hey guys,

I KNOW there used to be a chart with the actual jacket measurements of Vanson coats.

All the coats are made from three or four chassis, the sport rider, the cross zip, street jackets, and maybe one more? Touring coats? It had each size, the front, back, sleeve, shoulder, pit to pit, and the amount of ease each had…

I took a screen capture of that chart and I can’t for the life of me locate it!

Anyone have a copy they could post? I’ll keep looking through my old photos and if it turns up, I’ll post it myself, but I’m afraid it my have been lost to time.

I remember that chart from their old website and I miss it too. I know some people here are perfectly happy with the size guide they have now but I miss that complete breakdown of all the measurements size by size.

I’m bumping this, maybe someone knows how to use the Wayback machine? Or one of those internet archival projects? It would be awesome to have on the forum.

@Canuck Panda is it in that 2000 catalogue? I have it on an old hard drive that I can’t find.

At one point it was on the website, but that’s the right era. It had the different jacket chassis, with the stated size, and then the different eases dependent on the style.
I specifically remember there were line drawn diagrams…

The 2005 one seems to be similar to what they have now but I'll keep looking.

I have a near mint 1999 Vanson full line catalog w/15 page insert for custom orders and a rainbow of leather/horsehide and fabric options. I ran though the catalog and there is no size info chart on any available jacket from that era. Not sure what you are looking for but I couldn't find any size info at all.

Oh!!!
That was it! At least that was the info, the different ease measurements!
I could be misremembering the diagrams, but that was the information!

Thank you so much!! I can’t believe it was in a thread the whole time!
I really appreciate the help!

You’re very welcome.

Thank you @AbbaDatDeHat!
I too found this old chart very handy when buying my first couple Vanson jackets and the current sizing guide is a poor replacement in my opinion.
