Brace yourself!

A pair of braces have always been the matching companion for a pair of work pants.
Therefore we now offer Pike Brothers Heavy Duty braces for the Roamer Pant. The braces are hand made in Germany and are made to the highest quality standards.

The braces come in two colors, white/blue and brown.

White and blue.

The braces are made to go with the 1937 roamer pant for a traditional work wear look.

One Percent Magazine

Just in: One Percent Magazine from New Zealand. This one was hard to find!

Getting reday for the winter season?

Summer is gone and so is the Swedish hot rod/kustom/bike season. Fall is the beginning of projects in the garage, dreaming of better weather and planning for next summer.

But some crazy riders are getting ready for winter and ice racing. Check out "Icy Riders".



For three years, documentary filmmaker Bengt Löfgren, followed the riders, mechanics and fans in the glorious world of Ice Speedway. Icy Riders is a film about dreams, ambition and aging during what might become the last season of the legendary ice speedway rider Posa Serenius.

Get it at the HepCat Store!
