Deus X Santalum

We here at Deus realise that every ‘Iron-horse’ rider requires a sturdy pair of footwear that not only protect their feet but also last. That being said We decided to team up with the handmade boot makers “Santalum” to produce an extremely limited boot which is arguably the toughest pair of boots that Santalum have ever created. A boot that will outlast you on any adventure. Formed from 2.2mm buffalo hide, tailored into a 7-hole steel capped boot, featuring a double leather and rubber sole.

2012 The Year That Was

As another year rolls by we get a little older, wiser and fatter, with four flagship stores scattered around the world and an ever growing family. This time of year gives us a chance to reflect this little thing called Deus, created by a bunch of mates out of workshop in Sydney focused on building beautiful custom motorcycles.

That being said, we can’t … View More

LA – BARSTOW – VEGAS

The ultimate adventure. Simple in theory; difficult in execution. We got it into our heads to carry on the legacy of the legendary Terry Pratt, an icon of the motorcycle industry. Full of years, Terry passed away back in April of liver cancer. Unworthy though we were to squire two of Terry’s Triumphs, a 1966 TR6 and 1970 T100, we were gung-ho to pay tribute … View More

VVMC Rally – The Accoutrement

Our friends and neighbors at the Venice Vintage Motorcycle Club hosted their 5th annual VVMC Rally last weekend just down the street from The Emporium. As we walked the grounds, breathing in the diversity of our tribe of two-wheeled enthusiasts, our eyes were drawn to all the fantastic graphics adorning the t-shirts and leather jackets circulating the field. We trained our lenses on this multitude of logos, mottos, and slogans, and meditated on ideas of brand loyalty, self-expression, and identity politics. What makes man put on a particular tee in the morning as he gets ready to go to a motorcycle rally? Is it pride? Is it vanity? Or is it just the cleanest smelling shirt in the hamper? We’ll let … View More
