Definitely geographical...I've never seen that look on the east coast; not saying that it isn't over here yet.


I've always been a jeans / long sleeve t-shirt / Justin steel toes rider...oh well everyone has their own look I suppose.

Default Dressing & presentation

A few years back, maybe 3, I went to some bar in downtown Sturgis and one of a 1% club members wearing a patch was dressed exactly like that. I looked at the patch holders and none of them presented themselves like I was use to in the 60's~70's. I do not believe that the cloths make the man as I have had way too much life experience than that.

My thoughts were if a HA were to dress like that, what is this world coming to? My father also said that very statement when I was a kid concerning the music evolution from Swing/Big Band to Rock & Roll. Things change. But on tradition I will leave you with this thought: If you can not trust a HA on tradition than who can you trust? Like all of those aged citizens I am beginning to think "What is the world coming to"?

All due respect to your boss, but that just looks weird.

I think that's why he does it.

Or he just likes to be an "individual" like motorcyclist used to be rather than adopt the pirate costume. Can't say I blame him.
