The fascinating thing about fashion is that it isn't always just because one person (or a group of "elites") said that it is cool to wear now, there are movements that shape style as we know it today.

The lover of Indian motorcycle Pancho Villa who used them in battle and the legendary African American rider Bessie Stringfield who rode cross country despite Jim Crow. Not enough for ya?
