Foreigners in Bali Love to Wear Online Motorcycle Driver Jackets

Share:

The existence of online motorcycle driver in Bali seems to attract tourists. After previously being excited by the hug your driver trend, now some foreign tourists are very interested in the green jacket typical of online motorcycle taxi drivers.

Viral social media uploads of tourists wearing motorcycle driver jackets have become the latest fashion trend for foreigners traveling in Bali. Many foreign tourists are currently wandering around Bali wearing the iconic jackets.

The phenomenon was captured and then went viral on social media. 

From the TikTok account @lillacc13 and Instagram @hamisnewtonvesty, the group of foreign tourists even looked happy to wear a motorcycle driver jacket.

This was also made by an Australian TikTok content creator, Hamish Newton-Vesty. In one of his videos, he asked why the tourists were interested in wearing the jacket.

One of the tourists interviewed said this jacket is very good and comes from a reputable brand. 

When asked how much money they had spent on the jacket, the tourists replied that it was IDR 300,000!

They are really happy with the jacket and wear it to the club. It is unclear whether they bought the jacket directly from the driver or elsewhere. 

Hamish, who intensely goes back and forth to Bali for vacation, said he made the video after repeatedly seeing many tourists seemingly wearing the jacket. The video of his interview with three tourists was recorded a few months ago in the Canggu area.

“The next day, I saw a group of four men going out partying wearing similar jackets. Almost every night, you will find a tourist wearing that jacket,” Hamish told Wollipop.
