Are you a bike enthusiast and wondering how to get a vintage biker look ? An authentic style, a style that brings out the charismatic biker in you?
Well, you should know that you are right to pay attention to your clothing style. It is in some way a reflection of who you are, your visual identity. So you might as well adopt an outfit that really matches your personality. And any biker is capable of affirming that riding a motorcycle is good, but it is not enough if you do not have a biker attitude and look to go with it...
At Zone Vintage, we have already passed on valuable fashion advice to thousands of bikers and today it's your turn, dear rider!
In this short article here is what you will learn:
You'll see that it's not that complicated to become a biker worthy of the name. Sometimes, you just need to know a few tricks and make the right clothing choices. Let's start with the outfit:
Let's get straight to the point with the simplest, but also most important part of getting a biker look. It's all about your outfit. Indeed, to adopt the right look it is necessary to respect the biker dress code.
This is where vintage style comes into play, because a biker doesn't try to dress in the latest "trendy" brands. No! He only wears authentic clothes that have a real history like the leather jacket for example.
Now, we're going to reveal to you exactly what to wear and how to wear it for an instantly rewarding result.
You need to have a solid style and for that, there is nothing better than a good old faded or ripped jean. Opt for blue, black or even light gray that will bring out your BadBoy soul. Add to your pants a vintage leather belt with a big metal buckle and the result will be really imposing, but we will come back to this important detail a little later in the article.
There is no biker without a leather jacket! If there is one piece of clothing that is essential to your outfit, it is this one. Some bikers think that it is best to always choose black leather to look like a real badass. However, some vintage brown leather jackets are particularly effective in giving you charisma.
In any case, always choose a leather with an aged look when you buy your jacket. It is this effect that will give it a vintage look. The advantage of a good leather jacket is that it will remain intact for many years and it will even become more beautiful over time. It is a real investment capable of giving you the look of your dreams.
When it comes to the cut of your leather jacket, treat yourself and choose the one that excites you the most. From the aviator jacket (with fur collar) to the perfecto, the bomber jacket and even the essential bomber jacket.
For an authentic biker look, you have to be credible right down to your toes! For that, we advise you to put on beautiful vintage leather motorcycle boots. In addition to offering you effective protection when you ride, they will highlight the rest of your outfit.
At this point, you already have a vintage biker look, but the idea is to come and perfect your biker outfit with accessories. Nothing better for that than a good old skull ring that will highlight your virility as a man. You can also match your look with a wide leather bracelet, a steel chain or even a vintage belt. And finally, a classic for sunny days, put on a vintage biker t-shirt and your best pair of sunglasses.
As I told you at the beginning of this guide, being a biker is not just about clothes. It is also about adopting a style and attitude that matches the values you want to convey through this look. Let's start with the steps to follow to have the biker style :
Who said it was easy to have a biker style? You have to look tough and above all, you have to command respect when you go somewhere. For that, a muscular physique is an advantage, but what is really important is to be physically fit. You must always have a straight posture to achieve the proud look of a dominant biker.
The beard is a bit like the soul of the biker. It must be very thick to highlight your virility. However, it is not essential, especially since we are not all lucky enough to be born bearded!
The biker tattoo is a bit like the cherry on the cake. It brings credibility to the clothing look, provided that the tattoos are related to the biker style. Generally, biker gangs get tattoos of skulls, quotes, flames, a bike, etc.
However, if you have not yet had the opportunity to get a tattoo, we advise you to take several weeks of reflection before taking action. An interesting solution is to opt for a temporary tattoo in order to be sure and certain of your choice.
We have seen that the first thing to do to have a biker look is to buy the right clothes. If you don't know where to start, know that the most important thing is to have the leather jacket, it is the base, the centerpiece of the biker. Without the jacket, it is not very credible to claim to be part of the great tribe of bikers. If you do not have the budget to buy real leather, it is quite possible to start with a vintage jacket in premium quality imitation leather.
We want to congratulate you on all the knowledge you have just acquired about the biker look and the vintage fashion that goes with it. Keep in mind that this is a timeless style, which means that your new clothes will never go out of style!
All you have to do now is take action by getting the full outfit now, or little by little. The more your look is aligned with your personality, the more fulfilled you will be in your life as a biker!
