Um, both my vansons have the option of upgrading to hard armor and the
Vanson
spine protector only runs about $35 US if I remember correctly. Although,
it all just comes down to a matter of personal taste and function. The
factory
is only an hour from my house so it makes sense for me because they do
repairs
right on site. Just my 2 cents...

Vanson was the standard for many years but IMHO many other manufacturers
make better stuff with more features for less money today. Don't get me
wrong I have two Vanson jackets, but the perf jacket has totally feeble
shoulder and elbow protection with no possibility to change and will
only accomadate a Vanson back protector and the other jacket has no
provision at all to add armor. I believe Vansons claim that they use
superior (and thicker) leather than most, but that does little to make
up for the other drawbacks. I prefer my Triumph Retro Jacket and my
First Gear V-Pilot with Knox armour.
