Vanson Leathers

Vanson Villainess, Black Bainbridge, size 8

$ 849.99

An amazing custom jacket from Thurston Bros!  The Vanson Villainess is the perfect women's cafe racer, straight out the 1960s!  This jacket has nickel hardware, two-pocket front, shoulder gussets, coin pocket on the left forearm and a tough-as-nails number 10 double-ended zipper.  There are hip zippers that make it easy to adjust the fit on the bottom hem of the jacket.  Two vertical zip-up interior pockets are standard on every Vanson Villainess.  The jacket is made with Black Bainbridge.  

Our Bainbridge leather is a full grain bovine hide sourced from an Old World tannery with over a century and a half of heritage.  This leather is chrome-tanned with a dramatic pull-up effect and develops a fantastic classic patina.  Thickness is approximately 1.2 mm.  We’ve hand-selected this leather for its transformational qualities and vintage appeal.  This leather starts off smooth and firm, yet develops full grain character and a supple feel within a few hours of wear.  Our Bainbridge displays all the characteristics of full grain Old World leather at a modern pace.  Bainbridge is available from Thurston Bros. for off-the-rack and custom jackets.
