Mike’s Trikes was a legendary custom motorcycle shop founded in San Francisco in 1969, right at the height of the city’s counterculture era. Located in a gritty industrial neighborhood not far from the waterfront, the shop was known for building wild trikes that perfectly captured the rebellious spirit of the time. Founder Mike Delvecchio, a former mechanic with a flair for fabrication, specialized in hand-built Frisco style frames, chrome-laden engines, and eye-popping paint jobs that got the looks. Throughout the '70s, Mike’s Trikes attracted bikers who wanted something louder, longer, and more outrageous than the common two-wheeler platforms could provide, plus, with those fat bias ply tires on deep dish mags out back, there was no limit to how much power could be sent through them. Though the shop closed its doors in 1982 as motorcycle culture began to shift, its unmistakable style left a lasting imprint on the custom trike scene.
Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch, making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
