I've always been partial to this look. But would not wear leather pants, open goggles or open face helmets again. I guess the look we like is related to what we grew up with.

BTW, This is Ake Jonsson in 1972 when he dominated the fall Trans AMA series.

MXA just happened to have this on their insta stories last night.



Pretty similar to that scene from Terrafirma 3 right?

I have to agree with the 04-10 Thor stuff. They just don't make stuff like that anymore (Thor). When I worked at a shop for all those years I used to really look forward to the few sets of special edition stuff they would put out each year. Had to scoop up a few of those. I have a full set of the Jester gear that I thought was so cool. Love that General Lee gear and the Marker setup.

What's yours? I love the mid 80s JT Racing gear and the Stanton/Bradshaw era Axo gear. [img]https://p.vitalmx.com/photos/forums/2020/08/02/441789/s1200_CBC9t_eUcAAzaL.jpg[/img] [img]https://p.vitalmx.com/photos/forums/2020/08/02/441790/s1200_baileynew.jpg[/img]

I loved the Alloy stuff but they didn’t stick around long. What happened to them?

I really like the all red that Bailey wore in 85.

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

I have those MC pants, Pastrana,s yellow, orange kit also. 98 Thor vented pants, TLD blue camoe from 09 ish. A few 90,s kits. I wish I didn,t give away some old JT pants.

I love the recent Fox Image gear. Thankfully I don’t fit into the set I got so it stays nice and fresh Smile

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:

I’m buying if they release this again.

I've always been partial to my mid 2000's TLD gear. I wear fasthouse now days because I really like the fit and it's about half the weight of my old TLD gear. But , I loved the look of it.
