I could not be more pleased with this jacket. I have owned three comp weight Vansons and this is the softest one by far. Has the same ****** proof feel of my other jackets but without the straitjacket sensation I associate with comp. weight leather. Thanks again to jimmer_5!
Thanks man! It's definitely not the new stuff as I believe the original owner had worn it for a couple years before putting it up for sale. I actually called Carrie at Thurston Bros. to ask her about the leather on this jacket because it was so unlike what I was used to. She told me that Comp. weight varies from batch to batch and some of the batches end up much softer than others. Very cool talking to her and hearing the perspective of someone who has handled hundreds, if not thousands, of Vanson jackets alone!Perfect fit! It looks like their new competition weight leather.

Very cool breeze here in Indiana today. Will be getting up to 78 by middle of next week so I have a chance to wear the Teamster today. I'm taking it.
