Sons of Anarchy Style Guide: How to Nail the SAMCRO Look With Rings & Chains

Sons of Anarchy ran for 7 seasons and 92 episodes and became one of FX’s most-watched shows ever, not just for the story, but for the raw outlaw style. The leather cuts, heavy rings, and bold chains all told you who each character was before they said a word. In this guide, we break down that Sons of Anarchy vibe and show how our Serpentforge rings and pendants can help you capture the same gritty energy in real life.

Key Takeaways

Question Answer
What defines Sons of Anarchy style? Heavy leather, layered silver rings, bold skull motifs, and solid chains. Our biker rings collection captures that weighty, handcrafted look.
Do Sons of Anarchy characters wear skull jewelry? Yes, skulls are a recurring symbol of death, danger, and brotherhood. Pieces like our Human Skull ring echo that same energy.
How can I add Sons of Anarchy vibes with chains? Use one strong pendant on a medium to heavy chain. Our Quetzalcoatl Pendant works perfectly as a focal piece with a cut or denim vest.
Is this style only skulls? No, the show uses eagles, reapers, and warrior symbols too. Designs like the Eagle Warrior ring fit that broader outlaw-warrior aesthetic.
What metal should I choose? Sons of Anarchy style leans hard into silver and steel. Our pieces are solid .925 sterling silver, not hollow, which gives the same “built to last” feel.
Where do I start if I want just one piece? Either one big skull ring or one bold pendant. Browse our pendants collection if you prefer necklaces over rings.
Are there warrior-themed options like in the show? Yes, we focus on mythic and warrior motifs. Check out the ancient mythology rings for dragons, lions, and legendary figures.

1. Why Sons of Anarchy Style Still Hits So Hard

Sons of Anarchy nailed a specific kind of outlaw look that felt authentic, worn-in, and personal. Every ring, patch, and chain looked like it had a story behind it, from club rank to family history or time spent inside.

When we design at Serpentforge, we think about jewelry the same way. A ring should not feel like an accessory, it should feel like part of your character. That is why we work with solid 92.5% sterling silver and heavy, detailed designs that would not look out of place on a SAMCRO table run.

2. Core Sons of Anarchy Style Elements: What You Actually Need

If you strip the show’s style down to basics, you get a simple formula: boots, denim or leather, a cut, and serious metal on your hands and neck. The jewelry is never delicate, it is thick, visible, and usually silver-toned.

We build our Heavy Biker Rings to fit right into that formula. Pieces like the Tlaloc Ring or the Nemean Lion Signet have the same presence as the big club rings you see when characters slam their hands on the table in a heated meeting.

3. Skulls and Reapers: The Sons of Anarchy Symbol Language

The reaper logo is iconic, and the show leans heavily into death symbolism to mirror the life these bikers chose. Skulls on cuts, gas tanks, helmets, and rings all push the same message, you live close to the edge.

Our skull-focused designs are built for that exact visual impact. The Human Skull ring is solid sterling silver and carries the same energy as something you would see on a SAMCRO veteran who has survived too many wars to count.

4. Biker Rings That Feel Like They Belong in Charming

On Sons of Anarchy, rings are like rank and history, worn right out in the open. You see big, solid bands with skulls, club-style emblems, and animal motifs that fit each character’s personality. No thin bands, no subtle pieces.

In our Heavy Biker Rings lineup, we focus on the same bold shapes and weight. Pieces like the Quetzalcoatl Peridot or the brutal Menacing Tiger ring fit the show’s visual language, a mix of power, danger, and a little bit of legend.

Did You Know?
Sons of Anarchy holds an 8.5/10 rating on IMDb, a strong sign that the show’s mix of storytelling and distinctive biker style still connects with fans years after it ended.

5. Skulls, Sugar Skulls, and Dark Iconography

Different characters in Sons of Anarchy lean into different types of macabre imagery. Some go pure biker skull, others mix in cultural or religious angles to show where they come from and what they believe. The result is a layered visual story told through metal.

We play with that same concept in our designs. The Sugar Skull ring and the Aztec Skull carry that decorated, almost ceremonial death imagery that would sit perfectly on the hand of a character with roots in Mexican or Central American culture inside the club.

6. Warrior Motifs: Lions, Dragons, and Eagles in the Sons of Anarchy Spirit

Sons of Anarchy may focus on bikers, but a lot of the personal style leans into warrior energy, predators, and myth. Lions, eagles, and mythical creatures all reflect dominance, status, and personal mythology.

Our Ancient Mythology & Warrior pieces speak that same language. The Samurai Dragon, the Forest Dragon Ring, and the Eagle Warrior feel like something a high-ranking enforcer or shot-caller would wear to make it clear they are not to be tested.



7. Chains, Pendants, and Necklaces: SAMCRO-Style Neckwear

In Sons of Anarchy, neckwear is usually one strong piece, not five thin ones. You will see a single heavy pendant on a simple chain, often tucked half under a shirt, only visible when the cut moves or a character leans forward. That subtle flash tells you there is more going on under the surface.

Our pendants are built with that same “single focal point” mindset. The Quetzalcoatl Pendant at, the Caduceus Pendant at, and the Athena Pendant at are all strong enough to stand alone on a mid-weight chain next to a leather cut.

Did You Know?
In its final season, Sons of Anarchy was FX’s most-viewed program by Live+3 ratings, proving that the world of SAMCRO and its unmistakable biker style kept pulling people in right up to the end.

8. Aztec and Mythic Rings: For Fans of Alvarez, Mayans, and the Wider SOA World

If you enjoyed the crossover energy with Mayans and the Latin influences around the club world in Sons of Anarchy, Aztec and Mesoamerican motifs feel like a natural extension of that universe. They mix biker toughness with deep cultural symbolism.

Our Aztec Ring collection leans into that space. The Aztec Face Signet at and the Quetzalcoatl Garnet at give you that “old gods riding with modern outlaws” feel, ideal if you want your rings to show both your roots and your road.

9. Dark Pendants and Masked Icons for a More Ruthless SOA Vibe

Some Sons of Anarchy characters carry a more sinister, almost occult energy. For fans of those darker personalities, a pendant with a mask, skull, or executioner theme says a lot with very little. It is less “club logo” and more “this is the side of me you do not want to meet.”

We explore that in our more intense pendant designs. Pieces like skull themes, ravens, and ancient masks that we feature in our pendant-focused content bring that ruthless edge you might associate with antagonists or the show’s most dangerous allies.

10. How to Put It All Together: Building Your Own Sons of Anarchy Inspired Setup

If you want to channel Sons of Anarchy without looking like you are in costume, keep it simple and intentional. Pick one or two rings, one chain with a strong pendant, and let the leather and denim do the rest of the talking. You do not need to copy a character, you just need to speak the same style language.

A clean setup could look like this, Human Skull ring on your main hand, a warrior ring like Eagle Warrior on the other, and a single pendant such as the Quetzalcoatl Pendant on a medium chain. That combination gives you a look that would not be out of place at the SAMCRO clubhouse, while still feeling like your own story.
