Halcyon and about our Products
Halcyon Classic Parts & Manufacturing
While we strive to maintain the classic appearance of our automobile accessories and apparel, we also prioritize improvements to enhance functionality with modern equipment and practices. For instance, our Halcyon goggles now feature a newly designed nonslip headband with extended clips, ensuring a better fit with contemporary motorcycle helmets. Many of our developments have been made possible thanks to valuable customer feedback. If you’d like to share your thoughts on any of our products, please click here.
Halcyon Made in England
Our factory is located in Hertfordshire, just north of London, in the county town of Hertford.
We have always focused on small-batch production of high-end products, requiring a skilled, hands-on approach. Halcyon has a dedicated, close-knit team of employees who have worked with us for many years, developing expertise that is nearly irreplaceable.
This experienced team, with each member specializing in a unique role within our production process, allows us to maintain a level of consistent quality that would be unattainable with more cost-effective manufacturing methods.
A History of Quality
Halcyon began over 40 years ago as a manufacturer of metal components, working closely with companies like Stadium to produce parts for products such as Stadium motorcycle mirrors and the popular MkIII goggles. As Stadium shifted focus to other, more profitable areas of their business, they eventually decided to discontinue their range of classic car and motorcycle accessories, including their traditional goggles.
Since Halcyon was already producing most of the components for these products and had a strong working relationship with Stadium, we decided to continue offering the classic Stadium range directly from our factory.

Listening to Our Customers
For many years, Halcyon supplied only large wholesalers and distributors of car and motorcycle accessories, which limited our direct contact with end-users. However, since we began offering our products directly to classic motorcyclists and vintage car owners via our website and mail order, we’ve gained valuable, constructive feedback on specific products.
This combination of customer insights and our full control over production enables us to quickly implement improvements and adaptations across our range.
No Compromises
During the boom in mass-produced components from countries like China, many of our popular classic products, such as the Halcyon Bar End Mirrors and our goggles, were widely copied. With manufacturing costs in China a fraction of those in the UK, staying competitive on price became challenging. At that point, we could have taken the easy route by sending our tooling overseas and reducing production costs significantly. However, we chose not to compromise on our traditional production methods and instead remained dedicated to crafting high-quality, British-made classic accessories.
