Here, every article is written by those who believe the motorcycle jacket can be reinvented: welcome to VEST PARIS, where elegance and innovation discreetly meet.
Today we welcome Stéphane Crosnier, who has a unique profile: this fifty-something is both a real estate agent and co-host of the show Les Chiffres et les Lettres. Before that, he was a journalist at Canal Plus and then at BFM TV. Stéphane has been an INVENTIVE CITI client - now VEST - for the past five years.
He kindly agreed to a quick question and answer session to talk about his daily life and the use of his V1 model.
What is your job ?
Real estate advisor
In which geographical area do you operate?
In Hauts-de-Seine and by extension throughout Paris and the West of Paris
How do you get to your appointments?
On BMW CE 04 electric scooter exclusively
Why did you choose to travel by scooter?
To be more mobile, to save time on my business trips and thus be more efficient in my daily work. And also out of a desire for freedom and not to be dependent on "others" and traffic conditions.
What type of scooter and why?
On a BMW CE 04 electric scooter. It's the current top-of-the-range electric scooter. It offers reliability, safety, and power, while also reducing potential repair and maintenance costs. Note that I'm leasing it.
What additional equipment do you have?
I have a Bell brand Bullit helmet. As for the jacket, I have a blue V1 model from Vest.
Why this Bell helmet?
I love its retro feel and vintage “Steve McQueen” style. It also provides me with maximum comfort and security beyond its aesthetic aspect.
Why the V1 jacket from VEST PARIS?
This is a high-end, versatile jacket that combines comfort, safety, and style. I use it both for my professional activity and for all my daily outings. Much to my partner's dismay, I now only wear this jacket 😔.
What do you think is the biggest strength of this jacket?
Its versatility in all circumstances, whatever the weather. It protects me in all seasons. The feeling of feeling safe when I'm on my BM. Not to mention being chic and casual, an important detail when I'm meeting with my clients. An important detail, the fact that there is no logo displayed on it is important to me.
What were you wearing before and what are the differences with your V1 model from VEST PARIS?
This is my very first jacket with safety features. I used to wear a Canada Goose, but it wasn't waterproof, and I didn't feel safe on my scooter.
Have you ever recommended VEST to a friend? If not, are you willing to do so?
Yes and I would do it again without any hesitation because this product is a high quality investment.
