No, these are the bucks it covets. Look it up. Arising from a world where Attitude didn't rule, their purposefulness, expressed in functional details and faultless craft, jumps out at you. They express a truth and an honesty, not a fashion flavor choice for the brainwashed masses which put on different egos according to their moods. In their forceful honesty the old motorcycle and rugged outerwear are, unsurprisingly, extraordinary looking, having arrived before the hype, before the commercialization, before the ruin, before the accountants.
Authenticity is the criterion of value and of beauty too.
In things and in people. Inauthentic people have no value. And they are the majority. They're not dry, academic excavations of dinosaurs, of interest to only a few. If everyone's the same, not original, everyone wants the same things.
