Make Your Own Custom Motorcycle Apparel
February 8, 2010

I pride myself on being a pretty sharp dressed biker. I have lots of cool t-shirts, jackets, motorcycle vests, and boots. If you are going to be a biker, you should look like one right?

This year, I bought my first Harley so I felt compelled to step my biker attire up a notch. I was disappointed to find however, how expensive Harley apparel is. From the smallest to the largest items, Harley accessories are much more expensive than other apparel brands.

Like many of you, I’m not made of money and have to carefully consider all of my purchases. So, with a little bit of creativity, I found a way to make my own Harley apparel that is nicer than anything I have found on the web.

Make your own apparel.

Now, before you decide to start making your own apparel, I am not suggesting you infringe upon any copyrighted or trademarked logos. This is against the law and not very cool.

First, go to a website like Leatherup.com and find a vest or jacket that you like. Of all the sites I’ve seen on the web, this one has a large selection and great prices. If you use the code 55632 when you make a purchase, you will receive 10% off. You can use this code as often as you like.

From there, go to Ebay.com or Amazon.com, and do a search for motorcycle or biker patches. You’ll find that both sites have a huge selection of patches of all types. I found some very unique and rare pieces on both sites; including Harley Davidson top and bottom rockers. You can also do a search for biker patches in your browser and you’ll find hundreds of sources for cool stuff.

Now, all you have to do is arrange the patches on your vest or jacket and you are done. Some of the patches are iron on but I suggest going to your local dry cleaner or embroidery shop and ask them to stitch the patches on.

With a little effort, patience, and significantly less money, you’ll have the coolest gear in your pack. Just remember, this is our secret.
