SHOULDER & ELBOW VanTech CE Level 2 Armor included--- Icon indicates garment comes with VanTech CE ARMOR as standard feature.
BRVI -- BACKPAD REMOVABLE VELCRO INSERT--- Icon indicates the BRVI to support the back pad is in place inside the coat. BRVI supports the backpad from the shoulder areas and thus the backpad hangs down the back of the garment - fully supported on both sides - in the same manner as a backpack on a hiker. This prevents the center back of the collar from being pulled down. ---- ----::NOTE::---- The BRVI can support both the GP backpad or the VanTech CE rated backpad.
RAM A.I.R. sleeve vents are a patented design--- There is usually one vent in each sleeve. ---- Closure is by a waterproof nylon coil zipper. This design places the vent facing forward at the inner elbow - so that when unzipped the vent bows outwards and scoops air into the sleeve and up the arm. ---- Our unique design feature is that the open vent is bridged by a perforated material that keeps the shape of the sleeve - so the sleeve does not grow - bag and billow in the wind. This retains the elbow protection of the sleeve in the proper location - while also allowing substancial forced ventilation up the arm to the torso of the rider.
REAR EXIT VENTS--- Usually two zippered vents in rear of garment close to the underarm area. ---- Vents are zippered closed. ---- OR - a single rear vent across the back. ---- Rear vents are necessary to allow air to flow from a front venting source over the rider and out the back so as to prevent ballooning of the garment.
STREAMLINER COMPATIBLE--- There are two possible attachments for the STREAMLINER. One type is a snap-in - the other type is zip-in. The zip-in type has two zippers along the center front facings of a jacket. ---- THE STREAMLINER is a universal insulated removeable liner. It has removable sleeves and lace-adjustable sides. It is reversible - with a hi-visibility safety yellow interior. Insulation is a special Tyvek material Reflective strips cross the interior - so when reversed the garment is both hi-visibility yellow and reflective. Download the Fit Chart

In 2005, we decided to make a SportRider-influenced jacket with a little more relaxed fit, lighter in weight, but with protective armor, and cut for a comfortable touring riding position.

We wanted to build a leather jacket that you would grab first on your way out the door. The result is the Drifter family. Today we offer these easy-to-wear styles in both men's and women's versions. A streamlined look meets functional modern technology.

Vanson's leather Drifter Jacket has the classic center front zipper and two zipped hand pockets. Subtle-yet-substantial body armor uses our patented Floating Armor System which allows the rider to adjust protection level as needed for maximum comfort. Ventilation is via Vanson's patented sleeve vents that maintain the diameter of the sleeves, with the jacket keeping its shape whether open or closed. Rear exit vents ensure smooth airflow. The Vanson Drifter will accept our insulated, reversible Streamliner. For a sleek look, comfort and safety, the Vanson Drifter will be the jacket you grab as you head out.

breaking-in time as the leather is soft and supple right
away. These Medium Weight leathers gauge about 1.2 mm.
