I have several jackets, H-D billboard style among them. The one with the H-D motifs all over it was purchased precisely because it does have all that stuff; front, back, and both sides. I don't wear it all the time, just when I want to look like a billboard. It is no different than all the NFL and NASCAR gear one sees.
Hell, I can't swing a dead cat right now without hitting someone wearing Green Bay stuff.

Well now we know why Harley can't sell all those jackets, tee shirts, and all that other stuff. Somebody posted that the clothing line is for non-riders. Man, there are a lot of non-riders that go to Sturgis. I wonder how all those Harleys get there.

I have the green amry style Harley jacket. I really like it . That said I wear a Fox Creek to ride in.

If you google green Harley Jacket you will see it.

I know the HD jackets are made in China ,that fact has been beat into the ground, but the quality still seems to be good. I got the Fox Creek because I thought it was just as good if not better for a lot better price.

Going to be getting a Harley soon but can't find a decent jacket without some big crappy thing on the back of it. Just want a normal jacket to ride in. It is advertising enough that I am riding a Harley.

Might have to get another brand so I don't look like the noob I really am.

did those of you that don't want to advertise remove the name from both sides of your gas tank as well?

Come to think of it, the older riders I know all have plenty of Harley stuff (not to mention leather vests, fingerless gloves, etc.).

Maybe this whole "I won't wear anything that says Harley because it's bad for my image" deal is just about noobs trying not to look like noobs. By doing that, they may have created the latest noob look. Ironic.

Anyone else sick of this `billboard affect on the back of the MoCo jackets'?

Wouldn't these jackets look better with just a small HD logo or similar on the chest of the jacket rather or the trashy stuff on the back.


For the record I wear an FXRG as that is as understated as you can get here in Oz.

Don't you know that you are mostly paying for the logo. If you don't want a logo then buy a different brand. You can get much better quality than HD with no logo. Check out Fox Creek.
