What a great spot for advertisment though, I'm surprised more brands haven't done more colabs before, goggle strap is prime position.

So looks like they added the nose guard to the accuri to differentiate from the 100% stuff. At the price I wonder if they use strata or accuri/racecraft foam and/or strap.

I think I'll buy a pair or two if my dealer has them.

I love FMF.

I think it’s a cool idea, it’s a way of keeping the Gen 1 range of goggles relevant. Maybe not everybody gets it, but they will when they have the choice between swapping one pair of goggles or all of their goggles for the sake of convenience.

Price point is competitive too

I’m all for expansion but surely a more natural
progression would be hard parts.
I’m not a fan personally.

Been there done that already and failed with factory 909. Was from late 90s to mid 2000s I believe.

More power to them. If a clear plastic graphics protection company can get resurrected as a goggle company, then they can certainly make goggles for a pipe company if they want. Cool

If you have an FMF pipe and no goggle sponsor, go for it.

Margins on hard parts aren't as good as goggles. They also didn't have to invest in manufacturing infrastructure to get in the goggle game.

Very true, just don’t think the fmf branding fits goggles/Mx kit.
Maybe new brand would have been better?

Fuck it, I hope they do well and it grows on me.

FMF is looking for a product that Mitch Payton is not involved with cause they are tired of losing to the guy.

I think they should have went with a design that has outriggers. I am surprised they got the pros to wear them.

They were out of ideas the day "Lil D" took over lol.

Nah, but in all seriousness, I think "The Drop" mystery subscription for 'limited edition' tshirts was a FAR WORSE idea

Is that why PC put out this post with Mitch begging for off roaders to not forget about them?

"Look at us, we won Baja" ....yawn, pretty sure FMF won damn near every major/national off road championship in the US this year and last year and the year before and the year before that.... LOL

I was part of that 24hr race effort that Mitch is talking about. We did the ECU conversion, mapping and built the race light. The riders worked really hard and crushed it with the win. That event is no joke- it takes fast guys and a lot of preperation.
Mitch bought the bike from a dealer and paid for everything to go do that race. And, he was there in the pits for the entire 24hrs- taking lap times and overseeing the bike service. After all these years, he still loves to go racing!
