Ghost Rider question

[jonnytrooper]

Hey, I was wondering if anyone knows yet what make of leathers Johnny Blaze wears? Not the decked out Rider ones, just the street clothes version. It looks like the quality of Vanson, so that's my bet. Because even a costume designer can't make authentic ride ready leathers, I'm going to say it's got to be a motorcycle gear company. Any help is appreciated.

The closest thing Vanson has in their standard line is the CHP jacket.

It's not an exact match, but it's still possible that Vanson did a custom job. I sent a message to Mike (from the Wolverine thread) and hopefully he might chime in sometime soon, or relay the info through me.

Yeah, the pic above is definitely a Vanson. However, the jacket in Ghost Rider is a little different. Just wondering if Vanson was involved with this film at all.

EDIT: Just got your message Mike. So it is a CHP with mods then, cool. I'm sure some folks, especially johnnytrooper will be interested...

Mike, I'm going to PM you, I'm very interested in this.

just found this: http://www.moviemaze-wallpaper.de/images/4...aper-8-1600.jpg

a great shot of the oversized lapel. Also notice no snaps on the top part of the lapel, and the smaller stitching on it. There also seem to be some studs on the top of the jacket. PM'd you Mike...

I have a hunch it was custom made. I noticed the leather was a bit thinner than on an average biker style jacket.

yeah, I agree. although I have it on good authority that Schott made his "casual" jacket (the one he wore before he stole that dudes jacket in the jail cell)
