Why Crank & Stroker Stands Apart in Riding Vests and Apparel
There’s a quiet truth in the motorcycle world:
The gear you wear the longest becomes part of your identity.
It fades with the sun. It breaks in with every ride. It becomes part of your story.
At Crank & Stroker, we believe your gear should age with you — not get replaced every season. That’s why we build motorcycle vests, jackets, and riding shirts that hold up in the real world and never go out of style.
We’ve been doing this for over 20 years — and while most riders haven’t heard our name yet, they’ve probably worn something influenced by it.
🔹 A Brand With Deep Roots in Riding and Craft
Crank & Stroker was founded by a lifelong rider with decades of experience in the garment industry. Every piece is built from the ground up — not just decorated and sold.
We focus on:
- Leather motorcycle vests with proper weight, shape, and structure
- Motorcycle Jackets with added length and room where it matters
- A design process that starts with the pattern — not a trend
Our background in fit, cut, and construction gives our gear a quiet advantage. Once you put it on, you’ll feel the difference.
🔍 What Makes Our Gear Different
A lot of brands come and go. We’ve stayed small on purpose — because we’d rather serve the right customer than try to be everywhere.
Our values:
- Fit matters. It’s not about fashion — it’s about how it feels in the saddle.
- Durability over flash. Our gear is built for wear, not display.
- Timeless design. We want you to wear it for years — and still be proud of it.
“Your oldest gear becomes your most prized possession — just like your bike. So your gear shouldn’t become dated.”
That’s the standard we build to.
