C-bus Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 I'd like to get a new perforated leather jacket. I'm looking for quality, but I do not want to be a walking billboard. Anyone have experience with Vanson? This one in particular?http://www.vansonleathers.com/prod-Perforated_Drifter-607.aspx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 I can't speak one way or the other on Vanson but i am a HUGE fan of Shaf Milwalkee leathers. Any of the stuff that starts with ML for a part number should be Shaf from this website.http://www.2wheeltouring.net/jacketsMen.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Vanson makes high-quality custom leather race suits. I know the mid-atlantic director for NESBA has a simple custom black 1-piece Vanson.They may also have a "fashion" line though, so make sure that's actually a riding jacket. If it is, I wouldn't hesitate to trust my skin to Vanson riding gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary#17 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 My husband and I both have a set of custome 1 pc leathers and they are a super high quality. My husband had off the shelf leathesr from various name brand company's and the vanson's easily held up better in all the crashes. They also have great customer service and will (at least they used too) do many repairs for free. They are thicker than most that I've seen so the break in period might be a little longer.
