When you have to buy a gift for someone, you usually tend to overthink it and wonder if they are going to like the present. You probably ask your friends to give you some ideas and they always say that you know that person the best. Buying gifts for motorcyclists and rockers can be an especially demanding task.
Buying presents for someone who has a specific style or interests is easy in theory. Until you realize you don’t know where to look for. And even if you find a shop that sells things like that, you end up looking and the products not knowing what to get.
If the person that you want to get something for is close to you, this can be even harder. Personally, I know nothing about motors and when I have to get a gift like that for someone, I want to bang my head on the wall. Because of that, I decided to do a little research and compile a list of gift ideas you could give to someone that enjoys rock music and/or loves motors. So, here it is and I hope it helps you.
1. T-Shirt
You cannot go wrong with this gift. If you’ve noticed, all the rockers and motorcyclists have some cool shirts and it seems like that’s all they wear. They probably have so many shirts from their favorite bands, so going with that may be a little tricky.
Find a cool shirt that has an interesting quote or some kind of meme or a joke. Or you can try and ask the person about their second favorite thing, or something that they don’t have too many shirts of. Be creative. There are so many different products on the market, that you can find anything you want. Or if you somehow can’t, there are a lot of shops that make custom shirts, so the only thing you need to do is find an image and take it to the shop.
2. Motorcycle Jacket
This is every biker and rocker’s dream! There are so many different jackets on the market, so you will definitely be able to find something that you want.
Just make sure you get the right size for the guy or the girl you want to give the present to. You can choose between leather or faux leather and there are different colors available, but I recommend you to go with black.
The motorcycle jackets usually have a built-in waist belt to make sure your friend won’t get cold while they are riding their motorcycle. For your rocker friends, you don’t need to buy a jacket with a waist belt.
Most jackets have a detachable inner lining, so they can be worn bot in the colder months and in warmer ones. Your friend will love this gift!
3. Pendants
There are so many of them! And each one is cooler than the next. To be honest, I even bought a few pendants for myself when I was looking for a gift. The prices of them vary, so you can find products starting as low as $10 up to $500 and more.
It all depends on the store, material, size, and type of pendant you want to get. BikerringShop.com suggests getting a silver pendant because they are more durable and they won’t get damaged when your friend is wearing them.
You can get a pendant for the keychain, for a bracelet or a necklace. Some of them can be customized and some even come with a leather or silver chain.
4. Chain
This is probably my favorite. There are so, so many chains you can choose from. And the prices vary so much, so no matter what your budget is, you can find something you will like.
The thin chains that you can find pretty much everywhere cost between $10 and $50, and there are some hand-made state of the art chains that you have to preorder. The unique ones can go up to $1000, depending on the store and the material.
Usually, they come in a wooden box to make the whole gift look extra luxurious. Skull and devil’s chains are the most popular, but you can choose anything you think your friend would like. And you may even get something for yourself.
5. Custom Banner
If you want to buy a gift on a budget, then this is something cool you can get. The banners can be put on any jacket, shirts or vests. They are easy to attach on denim or any other type of material.
Some of the banners need to be sewn on the material, and some come with a double-sided tape that will help you attach it without any issues. The ones who need to be sewn on the material are more work, but they will definitely last longer.
You can choose between banners that are already available in the stores or get a custom one made. If you want a custom one, you can choose the font and the size. You can also choose the words that you want to be put on the banner. Choose something cool and something that your friend will want to be on their back.
The prices of the banners vary depending on the material and the size, but you can usually find them for $20ish. And these are the expensive, custom made ones. If you get one that’s already in the stores, you can find them for $10 or less.
Is there a gift that caught your eye? What would you like to buy from this list? While I was compiling it and while I was doing the research, I found a few things that I would personally buy for myself.
However, at the end of the day, it’s the thought that counts, not the gift. First, decide on the budget and then choose one of the things I have here. Is there anything you think this list is missing?
No matter what you get your friend will love the gift, so don’t worry too much. Have a great time and don’t overthink things like these. Enjoy!
