About

The early years: full of Sticklebricks, fun and Farley’s Rusks.

I had a T-shirt once. Actually I’ve had T-shirts more than once, but this particular T-shirt was unique.
Why? – Because it was exceptionally good quality: The cut, the fabric, the design (a matter of preference I suppose) but most important: the sheer durability.

I did everything

in this T-shirt. (No, not that, I’ve got diving flippers and a stetson for that). I played squash, did kickboxing, went running, ate cattle…

But not even my bulky bike leathers and the fantastic mind-bending speeds we jointly achieved (well within the highway code, your Honour) could fade the material, erode the printed design or stretch the collar (my pet hate of some ‘quality’ branded T-shirts) in over 7 years of use. I was impressed.

I conclude: this is THE T-shirt.

In a borstal of T-shirts, this T was The Daddy: Any T that dared to challenge it would be viciously educated with some snooker balls in a sock.

I have to make something this good

This is the quality T-shirts should be, not those famous branded wannabees that struggle through 4 machine washes before the neck is as big as the waist and the once-proud print has cracked and all but gone.

So this is Madjester Motorcycle Clothing:

Comfortable, durable casual clothing to complement being worn with bike gear: Not designer-flimsy tat or Ultra-focussed textiles.
