Now thats just plain wrong.. (shorts, WB T's, & FF's)

We wear denim shorts sometimes between noon and 5 o'clock when its above 85*, but we always wear our Harley shirts, Dk gray or black.

No flippy floppies. GREAT! Wife says they melt to easy on mufflers anyway. Don't ask how she knows that!
We do wear mid high leather white tennie shoes.

Check your 2010 catalog. Pages 696 thru 699. Not sure what the p/n is due to not knowing if you wanted skulls or flames. And for each pair sold they will include a pair of fingerless gloves. LOL

OK, thank you! If he had called it a muscle shirt, then I would have had it down. I quit watching 'COPS' years ago, so, didn't make the connection.

thanks, I didn't know what the hell these shirts were and wanted to make sure I never wear one when I "pasted" by others.

if theyre underdressed for safety on every part of their body, at least theyre sticking with a theme. the thing i find stupidest, is when i see a guy on a crotch rocket, wering a leather racing coat, helmet, and then shorts and sandals.
