What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

True test of a quality leather jacket. Reaching for the handlebars. On most, the sleeves'd ride up to my elbows. Never on a Vanson, though.
B would be great, as well as other Vanson motocycle jacket, even with the new competition leather they are still superior in many ways.....

Rock'n'Roll, though. Is that what it's called? The one with horizontal seams on the sleeves? Double main zipper. Anyway, can't say why, they musta gotten the pattern for that one from some other jacket but even though it's got a full action back, that thing's just broken. Something in the sleeves, shoulders, just holds your arms back. It's a cool jacket, would love to have one for the show but it isn't very good if you gotta reach for things.

Lot of Aero's I've tried are like that, too. Those gussets don't do a thing. But the Cafe Racer is different.

That's a badass jacket but am I right about the arms? Mine was older.
The jacket is long gone and that's my new bike, as far as sleeves ride up I haven't encounter yet, LW sleeves looks short when reaching handbag simply because it is normal length which Vanson usually 1 or even 2 inches longer than most jacket.

Nothing against @Monitor , but it fits you much better, I mean perfect.

No doubt there and I wanted to say something among those lines, again. I loved that jacket but now I see it never even fit me at all. This is @Mrfrown's jacket. Never was mine.

Thanks guys!

Been pretty limited jacket weather down here but I take it where I can get it!

I’ve actually been trying out vests around the house, not sure 100% how I feel about it. I dig it enough to want to try a Shackleton or other quality vest out
