Title: Shirts, Hats, and Other Apparel
Post by: BeaverMatt on April 11, 2013, 07:14:32 PM
I've been disappointed in what I've seen for Concours 14 specific shirts, hats, and apparel.  There's a decent selection of generic Kawi gear, but it is mostly green which I'm not a fan of (sorry ZG, though the bike looks great!), and I'd like to find C14 specific gear.  Anyone know of anything?

There is a COG store on the Concours Owners Group website. You have to be a COG member to buy from them, though.

It is probably the demographic.  The people most drawn to the Concours are those who don't need to be flashy about it.  Or, at least, that is probably the prevailing perception (and yes, you can exclude ZG).

Me, I wouldn't mind a nice "Concours 1400" hat or something :)

PCA (http://www.pca-one.com/productDetail.asp?productID=2644&RetURL=search&search=bike&bikeType=&bikeMake=Kawasaki&bikeModel=Concours%201400&bikeYear=2012) sells a few hats, a denim shirt and a fleece. My wife bought me the center hat for Christmas to round out an order for a few extra reward bucks. It's probably a little flashier than I would have gotten, but the one on the left was too much and the one on the right is a little boring.  8)

Reply to self- interestingly, when I got my Sargent seat two years ago, the company included a nice, logoed ("SARGENT CYCLE PRODUCTS") , high-quality hat in the perfect colors (light khaki with a darker  brim).  I have worn it several times a week every since.

I will keep waiting.  Don't like the flames, and yet also don't like black/grey color of the "boring" one :)  Besides, it should probably say "Kawasaki" on it somewhere, too!

I ordered a Concour14 hat from PCA. I kinda liked the plain gray and black one.  I also went over to the COG store and ordered a couple of long sleeved T shirts with the 2 bike COG logo on them. Very reasonable pricing.

Before I was a member of COG I won this hat at a COG event for "most miles traveled to the event",  those hard core sport tourers elected to give me the hat. I felt I had to join COG after that.  These folks were in KY and I was already uinder pressure to join from my friends in FL (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j180/stevewfl/avatars/biggrin.gif) (http://s80.photobucket.com/user/stevewfl/media/avatars/biggrin.gif.html)

I went all the way from my summer place in Asheville to Heather's house in Marion VA, all through WV, and on to the event in KY

Thanks for the great links.  I had not seen 75% of them.  There are a few choices there to pursue.

ZG you'll need to change your hat color to green.

Oh Oh.  I thought my Wranglers and Columbia fishing shirt, combined with any free oilfield cap I can get, was approved Concours apparel. :o
