The Club
For the love of analog & fast machines.
HOSC is a social club for people who like their machines loud, mechanical and a little bit out of date. Group C at Le Mans. Group B in the forest. V10s at Monza. 500cc two-strokes on the edge.
The cut-off is somewhere around 2005. Nothing hybrid, nothing silent, nothing that drives itself. If the sound is the content, it belongs here.
The merch follows the same rule. Heavy organic cotton. Printed and embroidered by hand in France. Small runs, numbered like parts. Made to be worn in the garage and kept for years, not for a season.
It started as an Instagram page and a few tees for friends. It is still mostly that.
