XXTi Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I just bought this jacket on e-bay. Here's the original ad. Hello, up for auction is a used but Like New condition Men's CSV2 Vanson Red & Black Perforated Leather Summer Motorcycle Jacket Size 52. Vanson (Made in the USA) top quality motorcycle leathers are made from quality hides, bomb proof stitching, mega metal zippers. These are built to last a lifetime. This jacket is the answer to summer riding comfort and protecting your skin at the same time. Looks great with your Red Ducati or Black Harley. The best way to check your fit is to go to a local dealer and try on the different sizes. Vanson's sizing tends to run a bit odd. I usually wear a size 44-46 and I bought a size 52. I like my jackets with a bit of extra room. If you want a regular /more snug fit then this would work very well for a normal size 46-48. I'm 6'2" weigh 215lbs. if that helps. The other way to do this is to lay out your favorite jacket and compare the measurements. This jacket measures 27" from armpit seam to armpit when laid flat. The shoulders measure 22" from shoulder seam to shoulder seam when laid flat. From the seam of the collar to the bottom of the jacket measures 27". The sleeves are 26" from the shoulder seam to the cuff. This is the real deal motorcycle jacket with double layers of leather at the impact areas, zip cuffs to seal tight, full jacket perforated leather(see close-up pics), 2 inside pockets, Armour compatible, can zip to pants, snap tabs for a Vanson vest/liner, adjustable waist, plus a credit card/cash pocket in front zip flap for easy access at fuel stops and toll booths. In the summer I wear it with a cotton shirt underneath and I have protection plus ventilation and you don't get your cotton shirt slapping like silly when you are doing 105 mph on your favorite back road. Nothing rides like leather and summer was always a problem until I got this jacket. Now it's a breeze. Do the Buy-It-Now Option and I will include free Vanson Armour for the Shoulders and Elbows + A Brand New Vanson Back Protector with Soft and Hard Shell Armour + Free Shipping (in the USA). With the Two Color option and all the Armour this jacket would retail around $700...you can get it for a whole lot less than that and get Free Shipping by doing the Buy It Now option. Treat yourself to a Like New Quality Cycling Jacket I normally wear a size 50, it's a little too big for me and I need to sell it. I just want to get what I paid for it, so I'd like to get $390 shipped to your door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkxx Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Vanson does make heavy duty stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXTi Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 Bump. I'm surprized that some of you big boys haven't jumped on this great jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbird Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 I've got pretty much the same jacket sans the red. If this was my size I'd be all over it. One clarification that might help, did you get the armor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXTi Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 Yep. It has the shoulder and elbow armor. I also got a Vanson back protector that will go with the jacket. I understand that the armor alone costs over $100. This is as great buy on a top of the line jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
