The West is romantic, it is the essence of freedom. I love it. It is wild with adventure and no regrets; it's rough, and has a natural disposition. Wild history, freedom, adventure and untethered harshness. Freedom... That's what it's all about

An Interplay Of Craftsmanship & Art….
Best thing I can do is go... experience life and live my dream.
Every experience becomes a part of me. It fuels my creativity, it's in what I design...
My influences come from real life. I'm not interested in stories for story's sake. I'm interested in life—and what wild shit is out there.

JOSH SIRLIN’S OWN LEATHER JACKET CREATION IS WORN BY KEVIN COSTNER IN US HIT TV SHOW
Josh Sirlin has taken the IWC JOURNAL on wild rides across the globe. On his 1948 Harley-Davidson Panhead, together we roared through Malibuand the Grand Canyon and hit the waves in Santa Cruz; we got thrillingly uncomfortable in an MD500c helicopter in Colorado and clenched our teeth during a traditional Japanese tattoo session in Tokyo. Next, Josh will be taking us to Yellowstone – not the National Park, but the hugely popular US TV series about a Montana Ranch.
Starring Kevin Costner and premiering in 2018, the show has become a must-see surprise-hit TV show – both in the United States and beyond. In November 2022, Yellowstone broke records with more than 12 million viewers tuning in to watch the premiere of season 5. In the series, Kevin Costner, who plays ranch owner John Dutton, wears one of Josh Sirlin’s designed ivory colored leather jackets.
The IWC JOURNAL spoke with the Creative Director of the Black Bear Brand about how the collab came about…. dive into the full story!
I love it. It's wild with adventure and no regrets; it's rough, and has a natural disposition. Full of wild adventures and untethered harshness.

My senses are on fire, I feel alive, present, and at a perfect peacefulness amongst the intense chaos.

The Pacific Northwest... its beautiful and harsh; wild coastline, wild green interior, rainy weather, and spectacular mountains!
I exist in a paradox where opposites collide, the excitement and wonder between known and unknown. this is where you can get lost and your imagination takes hold... this is where my creative inspiration is on fire. I have to design and create as a result or I would explode!
