HD is selling their brand of high performance T shirts. Of course the price is ludicrous $40-$45 for a freakin sleeveless T shirt. I went to Walmart and bought a few of the Starter brand (Dri-Star) sleeveless moisture wicking sleeveless T's for $6.47 each. These performance T's are available at Walmart, Target, and Sports stores like Dicks and Sports Chalet.. The sports stores are more expensive though $20-$25. I use these in the triple digit heat in AZ and they are more comfortable than cotton T shirts by far.They are great...if you can tolerate riding around without having a HD logo on your shirt. There is a lesson here, comfort costs a lot less than comfort and advertising for HD.

WHAT???
MoCo overpricing its merchandise ????
never seen that before ....

 

I know...hard to believe but it's true. I guess the days of nickel and dime Harley parts, accessories and motorclothes are over...LOL.

I posted that hoping someone might try these cheap, super comfortable T shirts to help beat the heat.

Slow down there fellas. Big difference between those and the HD shirts. "Printed large skull graphic on front."

 

I recently started using the dri-star socks, been happy with em so far. Just purchase some of the dri-star performance underwear for my trip to dragon at the end of the month. Hopefully they work out from gettin swamp nuts....

Dunno if i'll fit in since they don't have skulls....lol

 

Wished whatever great guru who dreams up these Harley fashions would come up with a white performance sleeved t-shirt with just a simple bar and shield...but no it has to be black (nice and cool there...NOT)...sleeveless and either a skull or nothing in the t-shirt line.

 

When it comes to summer time riding, especially here in "The Valley of the Sun" screw the graphics give me comfort. The Local HD dealer is having a seminar this Saturday on how to keep cool. If you have never ridden in an Arizona summer you have no idea...LOL Sunblock on any exposed skin or long sleeves. Morning and Evening riding can't be beat. Not much fun with the sun overhead though. Here summer time early morning and late evening rides can be done comfortably with a sleeveless T shirt no problem. Riding during the day is like riding in a blast furnace...wind chill in reverse...the faster you go the hotter it gets.

Tech23, you mean it gets hot in Phoenix, Az. ?

Probably because of all the asphalt.

We don't have near as much asphalt in Yuma, wait why isn't it cooler in Yuma???
