Black Bear Brand in Japan spring 2025

Kyushu. Oita. A road winding through the countryside, carved by time and the weight of history. I twist the throttle of the vintage Harley, its deep growl blending with the rustling of the bamboo, the distant caw of a crow. The air is thick with the scent of earth, woodsmoke, and something ancient—something untamed. Days before, I was in Okayama, buried in denim, feeling the weave of centuries-old looms beneath my fingertips. Before that, Tokyo—needle and ink carving stories into my skin in Horitoshi One’s studio. And now, here, in the land of samurai, monks, and wandering ghosts. Kyushu has become a home away from home. Old friends. Familiar faces. Shared meals of steaming rice, grilled fish, and the sharp burn of ginger. No drinks for me, but the laughter flows all the same. The road bends, and I bend with it. The machine and I are one, moving through mist and memory. I ride lost, but only in the way that matters. Seeking. Chasing something always just beyond reach. The ghost of an idea. The pulse of inspiration. It is always changing, always shifting. The moment you think you’ve grasped it, it’s gone, laughing in the wind. The clothes on my back are stitched with past journeys. Indigo rough-out leather jacket, worn and scarred like me. Indigo cowboy jeans, stained with road dust and rain. The art edition varsity jacket, a living relic of where I’ve been. My designs are my map, my story. A record of where I’ve gone and what I’ve felt. And today? Today is a new page. The adventure of now will shape what comes next. The ride feeds the fire, the fire shapes the creation, and the creation pushes me forward. No destination. Just the road. Just the ride. Just the spark of what’s to come. ___________ I don’t know where it starts. Maybe it never did. Maybe it’s always been— Something deep in the marrow, A restless thing gnawing at sleep. I come to Japan, Think I’ll find it. Whatever it is. And leave knowing less than before. Kyushu. Oita. A road winding, carved by time, Harley growling through bamboo hush, Crows calling from mist and memory. Days before— Denim looms hum in Okayama, Needles carve ink in Tokyo, Now— Samurai land, monks and ghosts, Old friends, familiar laughter, Rice steaming, fish on the fire. The road bends. I bend with it. Seeking, chasing, A ghost of an idea, A pulse of inspiration— Grasped, gone, laughing in the wind. Jacket worn, scarred like me. Jeans stained with dust and rain. Varsity jacket, stitched with past lives. A map, a story, A record of the ride. And today— A new page. The fire feeds the ride, The ride feeds the fire. No destination. Just the road. Just the ride. Just the spark of what’s to come. Maybe I never wanted to find it. Maybe I just wanted the chase. ________ Don’t know when it began. Maybe always there— Something buried, gnawing, a whisper in the bones. Japan calls. I go. Think I’ll find it— whatever it is. Leave knowing less, feeling more. Kyushu bends. Harley hums through bamboo hush, crows cut the mist. Old roads, old ghosts, monks in silence, a kettle steaming in the dark. Before— Denim looms sing in Okayama, needles dig deep in Tokyo. Now— Laughter, rice, fire. The past stitched into every thread. The road turns. I lean in. Chasing a shadow, a flicker, a breath— caught, gone, laughing. Jacket worn, sleeves scarred. Jeans inked with dust and time. Varsity script from another life. Threads tell the story, stitch the map. And now— another mile, another page. The fire feeds the ride, the ride feeds the fire. Maybe I never wanted to find it. Maybe the chase is enough. A vintage Harley rumbles down a winding road in Kyushu, Japan, the deep growl of the engine blending with rustling bamboo and distant crows. Josh Sirlin, clad in a road-worn indigo rough-out leather jacket and indigo cowboy jeans, leans into the bends, his journey stitched into every piece he wears. Days before, he was in Okayama, surrounded by denim history. Before that, Tokyo, where ink and needle etched stories onto his skin. Now, he rides through mist and memory, chasing inspiration, the road shaping his next creation. No destination—just the ride, the fire, and what’s to come. #BlackBearBrand #VintageHarley #KyushuRoads
