Vanson just confirmed that this is an early Model F in the high quality cowhide of the time. The Model F was first designed in 1976 so this must be an early one. Officially my oldest jacket but looks like new. A keeper.
I thought it might be something old(ish) of theirs as the seams on the underside sleeve panel are still closer to the middle of the arm. They've moved it higher up with time but I know that the ones with the lower seam are very early jackets.
It is an exceptional leather in any case. Looks so much nicer than the new stuff...
