The right jacket for the electric motorcycle cross country challenge
We at Vanson were excited to support the 2022 Charging Across America Challenge (CAAC)! Following the path of the 1971 Cannonball Run, Robert Swartz and Steven Day simultaneously rode their Energica motorcycles along a 2,906-mile route across 10 states. The challenge was to conclude on April 22 (Earth Day) with the riders on opposite sides of the country. Unfortunately, it was cut short because of a slight altercation of one of their support vehicles and a semi. For more about our support for their historic attempt click here. We coordinated with them to make this version of our ROAD KING in waxed cotton along with a pair of water resistant wax cotton matching CHARGER BIB TOURING OVERPANT, click here for more info and purchase a pair for yourself
About the Jackets Features
A Classic Jacket available in waxed cotton or Cordura, fully kitted out with all the modern conveniences, the Vanson ROAD KING draws from a deep well of traditional design cues, such as the vintage racing stripes on the sleeves, the twin chest pockets and hand pockets.
The mandarin collar features a neck tab with snap for keeping it closed. Traditional side-belts and buckles allow fit adjustment at the waist, and complement the action-back pleats that give you more freedom of movement. Each sleeve has an old school racing-style snap tab at the wrist end – for securing the wrist zipper – and two more up the sleeve, for a snugger fit if you prefer.
This jacket is constructed with all the normal panels and pieces of a Vanson leather jacket. The finishing inside the jacket is neatly done with full facings – so all the wear areas are protected from chafing. A leather anti-chafe inner face is set into the inside of the mandarin collar. Two large zippered wallet pockets are set into both the left and right inside facings, Behind the two way front zipper is a full length windflap to seal out the weather.
At the same time modern CE armor is incorporated at the shoulders and elbows. You can insert an optional back pad into a special zippered pocket built into the lining.
The Vanson ROAD KING jacket is built to be an easy-to-wear, light and comfortable, first-thing- to-grab-when-heading-out-the-door jacket. Not every jacket made has to have a karma soaked in past stories and journeys. The Vanson ROAD KING is a clean slate, a useful and practical tool freshly to imprint your own experiences over many miles and smiles....
