What’s the Big Deal about Harley? (Part 1)

Posted on Friday, 15 August 2008

I had this boss who liked to wear Harley Davidson clothing. Not the jeans, t-shirts, and rugged leather biker jackets that typically come to mind; but nice long-sleeve button-up pressed shirts paired with business slacks and sleek jackets that only belied their Harley heritage through subtle raised lettering on the leather or discreetly-placed branding on the fabric. I used to give him shit about wearing such expensive duds — because he does not actually own a Harley. Apparently he did at one time, and he has some fantastic stories to tell about it … but it sounds like his wife forbids him from practically even thinking about owning another one. So he is relegated to live the lifestyle and the dream vicariously … through clothing and other merchandise.

(In his wife’s defense, she is one of the wisest and nicest, yet toughest ladies I have ever met - the kind of woman you would want for the grandmother of your children … and the kind of woman you would want on your side in a fight.)
