Hakim has been a friend of the brand since the beginning, cigarette in his mouth, beer in hand in our canteen he gives us his advice and frankly we sometimes listen to him, except after the third beer! Hakim is perhaps the classiest among us; a fine mustache, piercing eyes and the killer detail in his outfits... we can say that he has taste even in choosing his bikes.
His brands are Barbour, Belstaff, Eat-Dust, Hedon, APC, Hamilton, Tissot for watches or Coté-Lac... Far from being sectarian, Hakim, like a good gentleman, mixes urban chic and biker chic to develop his own Dandy grease style :). For 2017, Hakim selected Steve, the suede jacket inspired by Steve McQueen's wardrobe to match the style of his café racer, BMW R100 "Stevenson" from Pocka bikes. Warm, resistant, chic, Steve allows him to go to work and ride without a chill thanks to its windproof lining printed with a world map! As Hakim says: "Put Steve in your life, and put life in Steve.... especially in fifth gear!"
Hakim wears two GF scarves, one in 70x70 French-made silk and the other 100% cotton 100x100 made in Italy.
