My custom Vanson Model B courtesy of Carrie/Wade from Thurston Bros! I've had this jacket for about 1 year now and these are the first photos I've posted since I was waiting for it to be broken in more.

Changed the following from stock:
- Reduced shoulder width
- Added back length
- Changed the back yoke (to straight)
- Changed the hardware from brass to steel

Greetings All:
Funny thing just happened at the gas station. Standing in line, kid in a CR turns around, looks me up and down, and says..”I like your style”. I said, nice CR. Guess there is hope for the future!! Ha Ha.
Today it’s Cal Leather with Knox Vagabond up top.
I like you guy’s style too!
Be well. Bowen

Looking at this picture makes me reflect about how swiftly taste can change. I used to think Aeros CLX was the only brown hide I would ever want a jacket made from and I loved the way it quickly aged and showed scratches and the lighter brown under the topfinish so quickly.. I remember how you pointed out you disliked this tea core effect and much preferred dyed-through leather and I was irritated.

Now, just one or two years later, I'm wishing my brown clx jacket hadn't aged so quickly and I'm looking out for a LW HH jacket for their never-aging properties sake and I start to like dark brown jackets with less of a worn-effect to the hide as yours here much better...

Anyways, great fitting jacket and cool to see you are finding time to post again!
