While in southern Ohio over the weekend, we ventured into a couple HD shops. While browsing we noticed a lot of the HD shirts didn't have the dealer name, so we asked why. And were told that the company that made them are out of business, which I think is Stratmans. So while talking to a friend who retired as a general manager from a HD shop, he said that he still had their phone number. Well they are still in business. I personally stopped buying HD shirts years ago but some people still like to even though they have ballooned up to $47.99 for a pocket T. Another business change by HD, you would think that Tshirt sales would be a large part of a shops income.

I Agree, $50.00 For A T-Shirt Is A Rip Off........Should Be Less Than $20.00............

Wow…$47.99…When I was a kid my Old Man would always say for $50 bucks he could buy a new Car..😉😉..
 
I mostly get shirts gifted to me for birthday and Christmas, otherwise I aint spending that kind of money on HD T shirts

I can find older stock and overstock shirts @ flea markets cheap
 
There was an interesting T-shirt from an online company I was going to get. A bit pricey but wanted to support the small guy. When it was all said and done with shipping and tax, it was about $50.00! The shirt was not worth the money.
 
My wife seems to buy tons of Harley T-Shirts. Today, while visiting the dealership, she purchased a really nice-looking jacket - it was marked down from $150 to $75

Looks really good on her - and for me, that's the world.

That is a good buy. I bought a pair of H D 16 inch engineer boots ( American made Red Wings) in 1992 at a dealer close out sale for $50,00, I forgot I had them. I found them still boxed up 2 years ago, I am now a happy rider again
 
Last year I was driving the trike to several dealers around and tried picking up a t shirt that I liked, to much money last year, this year I'm not buying any at all, they have over priced them so much and not even made in the USA, so they have lost me for there t shirts, guess I will look for good used if possible.

All for now Trampas
 
$50 cars

My Dad sold those cars. I cleaned them up in the shop.

Dealer t-shirts are my thing. Always pick up two at each dealer I stop in to: one current and one from the sale rack.

Got dozens at this point, from all over the world (most recent international: Stavanger, Norway), although the wife thinks I have too many black ones. Always room for a few more.
 
Just to add…..When I bought a New Victory Gunner..(2014/2015?)…They gave me a leather victory embossed jacket and a T shirt….. and a few little foo foo things that came in the mail afterwards…

And where is Victory now…. ??..
 
I stopped buying HD shirts. They’re overpriced, and I can buy a 3-pack of Hanes black pocket tees for less than the price of one HD shirt.
 
I kind of like some of the dealer designed shirts.

We used to live in Paris IL and the nearest dealer was Cannonball in Terre Haute IN. One of their designs encompasses local icons…the little town of Toadhop, Stiffy Green the legendary English Bulldog, the 3 eyed catfish from the polluted Wabash River, and the ear of corn from surrounding farm country. Pretty clever!IMG_1429.jpeg
