This is a 2-piece, competition-ready Drag Race Suit. This suit is enhanced with GRIND at the shoulders, elbow/forearm, knees and seat; it also has a backpad. GRIND is the special proprietary Vanson mix of leather and Kevlar® to make an almost impermeable protection barrier at key areas.
GRIND meets or exceeds even the AMRA and NHRA HARLEY FUELER CLASS requirements. GRIND is light in specific weight, always important when measuring ounces for speed. GRIND is extremely protective; Chris Hand came off at 220 mph, Korey Hogan at 246 mph... and so on. Our exclusive use of GRIND allows Vanson to build these suits using our butter-soft, already broken-in leather which we call CBLK.
The Back pad is the Vanson four scale, articulated, hard polyethylene pad that we produce for our high performance motorcycle road race suits. The waist zipper is full circumference, made of heavy-duty brass, and the lining is ventilated nylon athletic mesh. The Suits are produced in regular chest sizes, men only. These suits are not basic suits, they are complete in all important aspects, already broken-in and ready to go.

USA MADE TO ORDER - OF DOMESTIC AND/OR IMPORTED MATERIALS
BLACK FIRENZE - MEDIUM WEIGHT LEATHER ( 1.2 mm ) Selected skins are gently tumbled for extra softness and a slight pebble look. Milling brings the grain up making the natural markings a little more pronounced. Garments made of this leather will require very little breaking-in time as the leather is soft and supple right away.
Your jackets are not only great protection, but they are the most functional motorcycle jackets I have owned (and I've owned a few). I must say that I am now thoroughly convinced of the quality of your products.

I just wanted to write you a letter saying thanks for building such a great product. I know you probably hear this a lot, but I was recently in a motorcycle crash while wearing your Enfield jacket and I believe it helped save me from serious injury. In the course of the accident, a Jeep ran over me while I was wearing your jacket. Please allow me to explain:
On May 18th 2013, I was on the way home from buying a second motorcycle and I was following a lifted Jeep Cherokee. The 16 year old driver of the Jeep (with a brand new license) turned right into a street and then whipped left to make a U-turn without looking. Unfortunately, I had no time to stop, and collided with his driver's side door. I was knocked unconscious and fell to the ground. The driver then decided that he should move his Jeep off the road, and proceeded to run me over in the process. His driver's side rear tire drove up onto me at my waist, rolled up my spine and directly over my head.
I was extremely lucky - I am miraculously unhurt after this accident. I sustained a concussion, but I have no broken bones, no lacerations, no internal injuries, and no internal bleeding. Just the concussion and some bumps and deep bruises - not even any road rash! I was released from the hospital 6 hours after the crash. Considering that the driver of the Jeep drove over my body, I believe your product saved me from serious injury. The jacket has some light scuffs, but there is hardly a mark on the leather. My jacket was a standard Enfield with a custom dark brown competition weight leather - the thickest leather I have owned. Unfortunately, the ambulance crew cut it off me before I had a chance to say anything, and it was completely ruined as a result.
I have owned several of your jackets before, but this one was my go-to jacket. It fit me perfectly and it moved with me when I rode. Your jackets are not only great protection, but they are the most functional motorcycle jackets I have owned (and I've owned a few). I must say that I am now thoroughly convinced of the quality of your products. I will be replacing this jacket with another Vanson as soon as my finances will allow, and I will proudly tell my friends about how your product played a large role in keeping me alive and healthy. My wife, who is currently pregnant, thanks you as well. I believe this means even more to her than it does to me.

I have been a Vanson fan for years but this past year has made me more than a lifetime owner/ advertiser of Vanson products. I had 2 wrecks on my CBR1100XX in 2005 and each time I was wearing my Vanson gear...each and every time they [Vanson gear]have saved me from abrasions and major injury..The jacket and pants still look brand new except for a "little character". Thanks for making such a great product, I really consider them a factor in the reason I am here today!

My jacket just turned 30 years old. It is as strong and sturdy as the day it was bought, and more supple than I could have imagined leather to be. It is one of my oldest and most prized possessions. My jacket has seen probably 30 of 50 states, as well as some track day usage. I wear it regardless of heat or cold, and although it doesn't have the venting features of your wonderful new products, it's specialness more than makes up for that for me. It has a mature permanence about it, and I believe the jacket will never wear out. I would recommend your product to anyone.
just bought one of your suits and it helped me already

Here is a picture of me in action in “the horseshoe” at Texas World Speedway on my way to victory in the HW Twins Novice class. I have had these leathers for two years now, and they have performed well in several crashes, and I just now had to send them off for repair after a recent get-off at Hallett.

I ride a honda TransAlp xlv650. I got this Vanson when I was studying in Boston this past fall. and as one of my teachers there, Bill Burke said, there is no compromise in safety. Buy a Vanson.
