Absolutely !! And seeing it in person it was even more striking . Cleanest,sharpest design and bright enough to catch your attention. When gear still looks great 40+ years later, you know they hit a home run

Early 2000's No Fear Elektron gear is still some of my all time favourites. The MC light/dark blue, the light blue/orange, and a couple of other colourways.

I feel like its been quite some years now since any label released a really "iconic" gear set like all those that have been mentioned here from years past. The last major release that moved the needle, at least that I can recall, is the Reed/Shift partnership with TwoTwo Motorsports. Its very much limited edition runs now that are often quickly forgotten, and literally new styles for each season of the year.

Also, matching gear/bike colourways and themes seems to have gone away for the most part too.

The whole line of this 2000 No Fear Elektron gear. No question. The vented set Jeremy wore at Daytona is the cherry on top.

Agree on Emig/Shift 97, all the recent Shift solid colour stuff, all the No Fear stuff from the turn of the century.

One that hasn't been mentioned yet. Both the old and the new look sick to me.





I also thought the Thor/Volcom stuff that DD wore for Eleven 10 mods was pretty cool and unique. Looked good regardless of if he was ripping starts or pushing his bike off the track

For me, looks like it's all been mentioned....

Shift stuff has seemingly always been on point. Or at least in the late 90s followed by their resurgence with Reed in 2011.

No Fear... So good! All of it!
If I had to pick a single gear company to wear over the last 20 years and into the next 20, it would be Shift.

No Fear had some bangers, that's for sure.

Totally agree, the Fox stuff from that era was good also IMO.

Loved those black and yellow Tech 8's ! The Bell moto 6 was such a killer helmet, wish bell would release em like they did the moto 3!

Incredibly mixed bag... some amazing and some absolute horseshit.

With this likely being the only year ever where we go racing in the fall, I really hope Fox brings back an LE line based on their '94 gear:
