I’m stoked on my new Icon Airmada “Stack” lid and “Justice” gloves. Took ‘em out for a little while last night, so good.

Nicolai Sclater, aka OrnamentalConifer (blog), is a British graphic designer gone sign painter.

Back in december I posted photos of hand painted leather jackets by Ornamental Conifer. Then earlier in April I posted the first “Further” video featuring an awesome bike with SUSHI EATER lettering on the side. Observe, that same bike in the secondrow/middle photo above!

Nicolai is a talented designer with a very steady hand. His art helps express the soul of the pieces he is decorating whether it be a helmet, jacket, or motorcycle.

Greasers, line dancing, break dancing, burnouts, big hair, leather and chopsticks. This is just some of what you get to see in the Nothing to Worry About music video from Peter Bjorn & John.

This is my favorite music video of all time, I’m honestly shocked and appalled that I have not shared it yet.

If you recall correctly, my friend Emma Bass got into an unfortunate motorcycle accident caused by a large truck trying to skate across four lanes of traffic. She was a little bruised and busted but came out okay. Since then, Emma has been outfitting herself with proper motorcycle gear. She wrote me to ask how I felt about my Icon 1000 Federal jacket, and now picked up one of her own. 
“Best purchase I’ve ever made besides my first motorcycle. It’s my first legit motorycle jacket and it’s ten times safer than any number of jackets I’ve owned before. Score!”
Well said, Emma. Plus, you look hot!
