Very true. The vatos have been sporting this look for a long time. It used to be mostly bangers wearing that style of dress, but it has migrated to the MC community and other non club affiliated riders as well. 15-20 years ago I would have thought the person wearing that style of dress was a Chicano banger from the hood for sure. Nowadays, I've seen white boys and assorted others sporting that look, and they're definitely not bangers or club members. Maybe they are just trying to look "down," or like tough guys...or maybe they just find it comfortable to ride in those clothes.

Same could be said for wearing khakis or jeans with a buttoned up plaid Pendleton. Very standard around here among Hispanic and White riders.

It got popular in Southern California right around the time sons of anarchy and the devils ride where on the air.

Can't stand the flat billed baseball hats down over the ears look. Seen a couple old white guys trying to rock the look, pretty sad.

I'm an old guy riding a blacked out dyna wearing skate broad shoes for grip & a full face for protection.
Got a pair of black ventilated moto riding pants for the heat. No way I'm wearing any kind of shorts on the bike.

I wore shorts once on a bike. Burned the crap out of my leg. Learned my lesson quick.

Wanna know what cooler then doing wheelies on a public highway in shorts and a tshirt?

Permanent road rash scars on your arms and legs. But at least your face will be alright. That's how you get the chicks anyway.
