Wetherd - Pure Passion

November 3, 2011
by Fetish Media and Marketing

You know by now we’re pretty used to see some of the most passionate people in South Africa but to be honest, WETHERD clothing and the guys that run it are ranked right up there at the top. I mean how  can you not be when you have you own personal MX track at your House/Office….yeah you can say it….you Lucky Fuck.

but here is the main man himself talking about how he got started and then we’ll carry on with our review of WETHERD

Yeah I hate them as well hahaha. but in all seriousness they are a brand worth watching and looking out for, their style is a unique bland of petrol fueled insanity and flat out design brilliance. Wetherd was started initially as a skateboard brand, but once the petrol fumes saturated their veins it was all about motox.

With initial designs being nothing more than fabric paints, stencils and stock T’s, WETHERD see’s a bright future for itself and why not, the Gap in the S.A Motox industry needs to be exploited especially in our minds as the large labels have become somewhat stagnated and boring with their approach to MX gear. WETHERD is that perfect blend of ART and INSANITY that most MOTOX riders posses and thrive on. Not forgetting their roots in their design and companies route to where it is now They want to return to putting their artwork and various paint techniques back onto clothing once again in a LIMITED run of threads aptly called the WETHERD ART RANGE

Followed and represented by the WETHERD LEGION, the boys are also Home grown and are happy to share their jewel of a private track with anyone who is in or travelling near the Eastern Cape (East London) and would like to take a whack at it. WETHERD also looks after its own with WETHERD and most of the LEGION riders alos being sponsored by VON ZIPPER eyewear……WTF…OK seriously now Dont you think Fetish should get a sponsor….someone…anyone…

Available at almost every MOTOX, Super MOTO and most National Offroad Events you can also get gear from them directly but if you wanna get hold of them or wanna give their track a good ol fashioned beat down then track them down through the links below

WETHERD we wish you all the luck and promise to follow your success as a South African MX Label.
