Vanson and RoadRUNNER Magazine

Vanson Leathers and RoadRUNNER magazine have been in the motorcycle touring world for quite a long time. RoadRUNNER magazine is dedicated to serving active motorcycle enthusiasts by providing them with a comprehensive resource of national and international tours, exciting and picturesque new places to ride, every month they showcase rides you may be interested along with showing different rides with tear out maps designed to fit in your tank bags. A bit old school, maybe but boy is it dam convenient, a lot easier to view briefly than a phone screen. RoadRUNNER also has editorials and reviews  giving their readers valuable information on new motorcycles and products to enhance their riding experience.

For over 48 years Vanson has listened and designed riding apparel keeping with the 'touring rider' mind set Vanson offering styles (original Vanson designs still made by hand, one at a time from our original templates) that will complement the touring style of riding with comfortable form fitting garment while still giving you the best protection to help minimize injuries if you go down.

Vanson has been in business since 1974; we are a small operation, we specialize, and everything we do is done very well. Our designs cover a wide variety of riding styles. In fact, many of our original designs are still being sold today. Added to that are Vanson's 10 patents in ventilation and protection.

Buy a riding jacket, pants, gloves, or racing leathers suit from us, and you may be paying more up-front (we reserve the right to be cheap), but in the long run it's likely to cost you less, and for sure will serve you better along the way. Many of our jackets that were bought in Vanson's early years are still being used today. We have records going back to the early 1980's which document the cleaning and repair work done on many customers garments.

These items are now being passed down to sons and daughter as well as their grand kids. You be hard pressed to find another manufacturer that can claim the same! Dollar for dollar owning a Vanson is truly a frugal purchase.
