About Us -

The Cheyenne Trading Company, located in the foothills of the beautiful Pocono Mountains in northeastern Pennsylvania, specializes in providing clothing, jewelry, helmets, and all manner of small accessories to motorcyclists, primarily as vendors at motorcycle events in the eastern half of the U.S.

The history:

First came the Mishawaka Trading Company, powwow traders, selling American Indian craft items, from finished products to the supplies necessary for skilled hands to design and craft jewelry, warbonnets, painted skins, and other items found in and around the arbor at traditional powwows. The company was founded in Northern Indiana. In the early 90's, it merged with the Cheyenne Trading Company. Both companies were started originally by Bill Crafton, who for years had worked in radio and television as a journalist, then in management of news departments, and finally in consulting.

But the open road called.

Bill's interest in American Indian history and traditions, combined with his love of simply following the front wheel of his Harley as it headed down the highway led to the formation of the company that has sent rude and REALLY rude t-shirts to folks from bartenders in Japan to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, and hundreds of points around the world. The primary focus of the company though, where you're most apt to see them set up as vendors at bike events, is the east coast of the United States. And this is the logo you see on the company's shirts:
