Bolt London Motorcycle Store

Bolt London was founded by Andrew Almond in 2013 and it is now one of the coolest motorcycle stores in UK and definitely my favourite. Andrew is also very active persona in the motorcycle world being involved with numerous motorcycle events as well as hosting art exhibitions.

His store is filled with unique motorcycle apparel sourced from around the world as well as with cool vintage clothing. He started also his clothing line producing signature t-shirts, long sleeve shirts and really sweet biker leather jacket! Garage is offering servicing & repair as well as building custom motorcycles.

Beautiful Vivian Savage has been with Bolt since the beginning 'bringing order to the chaos' and Simone Fiore is Custom Bike Builder.

If you are passionate about motorcycle and cool design then you must visit Andrew's store! Address: 1a Bouverie Road, Stoke Newington, London N16 0AH. 

Brighton Visit - Casual Winter Outfit - Universal Works Chore Jacket Test

On my day off I visited Brighton. It was a chilly but sunny day and I was able to chill on the beach. I wandered around west site of the city which is residential filled with beautiful victorian and georgian houses with walls painted white. It is quieter part of Brighton and really spectacular as it is located on the hill overlooking the city centre and beach.

I chose to dress comfortably, casually of course and warm. The trip was a first test for my new wool chore jacket and it passed the test positively. In fact I really love the jacket, the look and the cut. It is shorter than most of chore jacket I know but gives more room in chest and shoulder area. I have to admit that this is perfect fit for me as most of the brands tend to cut their jackets in size small or xs too long and tight in chest area. One thing I will change is the material. It begs for full weight scottish wool! Instead Universal Works chose to use thin wool blend material.
