The right bib touring overpant and matching 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 CHARGER BIB TOURING OVERPANT in water resistant waxed cotton along with matching a jacket (modified version of our ROAD KING) with the same wax cotton click here for more info and purchase a version of the jacket for yourself and complete the riding kit.

About the Bibs Features
The CHARGER BIB TOURING OVERPANT are available waxed cotton, fully kitted out with all the modern conveniences, the Vanson Charger bib touring overpant draws from a deep well of traditional design cues, such as the vintage waterproof zippers and CE armor at the knee, a convenient chest pocket and easy access cargo style pockets.

Rider comfort over a long trip was fully addressed. Long twin head side zippers make for easy entry (and exit), and wide adjustable suspenders will not dig into the shoulders. Expander sections at the knee and back allow the rider ease of movement helping to prevent fatigue. For all of the features see the above bulleted items/features list at the top of this page.

Here are some images of Rob showing the grey version of the Vanson gear that was used during the Charging Across America Challenge.

ARMY weight 1010 (10 oz.) CHARCOAL GREY Waxed Cotton
10.10 oz. Army Duck is Made in the USA.
The name Duck is the anglicised
version of the Dutch word Doek - which means cloth. This
material features equal warp and fill threads in the weave
which results in a very tight + strong and durable fabric
with both breathability and water repellency. Strength and
water resistance are enhanced by the wax finish.
.
Wax cotton can be reconditioned and re-proofed using the
Vanson wax sold separately. Use a hair dryer to heat the
area of the garment needing wax - work the wax paste into
the Duck using a dry cloth and a circular motion.
.
Note: Do not wash or dry-clean wax cotton as it will
lose the wax impregnation and finish. To clean wax
cotton hose off with cool water only.
