Here we have a really unique Vanson, it's a like a cross between a double rider and a Model B Deluxe. Brass hardware, button down lapels, two way zipper, hand warmer pockets and nothing else! Super clean and simple front displaying the beautiful hide. the salesperson at the Fall River showroom said that this jacket is one of the samples they exclusively made for Japanese market. Purchased in late November. It's essentially mint. I bought it to be a riding jacket and wear armor underneath, but went another route.

Measurements:
Pit-to-pit: 21.5"
Sleeve: 24.5" or 25" (straight across sleeve vs outside of sleeve)
Shoulder: 18-18.5" depending on how much you pull on the gussets
Back: 24.75"

Fits like a 40 in true Vanson fashion. Really, really nice batch of leather - great texture and feel.

$500 shipped via F&F or Venmo in the states. Includes original Vanson key tag!

Love this. What‘s the width at the bottom hem?

It's not Z150 or comp weight (I own both and they're definitely different), I believe it's steerhide. Wears easier than competition weight since it seems to be a bit thinner; but it's not 'gummy' like I've heard X150 is.
