Also those couple of 03/04 throwback gear sets Thor released were good. I bought a set but haven't had the chance to ride in it yet, although out of all the gear sets I've tried on it's been the comfiest.
Funny, I absolutely hated the confetti vomit years of moto gear. 2009-2012 or so were just awful IMO. But, different strokes as they say.
Seems like I'm the only one who likes those designs. Don't think a single person I've seen a single person say they liked them, nevermind love them haha. That kind of mx gear is my favourite, second would be the Fox gear RC wore roughly from 05 to retirement, nearly all gear sets that don't fit one of those descriptions are pretty mediocre to me.
I've consistently been happy with Klim gear...the look, the fit, and the durability. Plus? Pockets! I love pockets.
I love seeing the major manufacturers following suit with good quality off road specific gear (TLD being one). Offroad is just hard on gear, and moto specific materials and construction just gets destroyed...

That's awesome. I'm glad you like them...variety makes the world interesting.
These are more my style:
I think there are a ton of options for almost any taste. FXR has wild, bright colors and then some clean designs. Fly is generally pretty clean and not too wild. But they have athletic fit in the Lite line and also a 'baggier' feel in the EVO. TLD usually has some wild options. I've been wearing the AStars Fluid stuff for a review and it's just black and white. Not super tight. I actually prefer the athletic fit though. I do like the idea of some retro looks. Helmets are my biggest issue. Some are very uncomfortable and only the the two I prefer have a high price point.
I dont understand the vitards obsession with mx clothing. It is the least important riding equipment.
In my opinion paying so much attention on what are other dudes are wearing is kind of gay.
What's the business logic in these companies putting new gear on the riders every week, that customers can't even buy?
Very few of the companies do that. I don't think AStars is too concerned with mx gear sales to be honest. FXR, Fly, etc usually has all their gear available
2022 techstar rips super easy on the ventilated sort of mesh part. This is on the inside of the sleeves and side of torso and wraps to the back a little. The back of a 2022 Supertech looks like the same stuff. The 2022 Supertech sleeves are tougher than the techstar from experience. The 2023 Supertech material looks completely different.
He is! Partied with him many times!
Ok, I get it, you’re old-school. I am too….but, bring back goatskin leathers?
“Caring about what you’re wearing is gay” is peak middle school bro
With Alpinestars it seems like most of their custom gear for the pros is the entry level colorway on the top level materials/patterns. Most likely this is done to drive higher volume to the entry level gearsets, where the profit margins are higher than the top end gear. The fans are happy because they can look like Jett and Chase and Eli at their local track and not break the bank, and the racers have a better chance at buying the athletic-fit gear they need before it sells out.
On a side note.....why does Alpinestars have a Troy Lee Edition S10 helmet when TROY LEE SELLS THEIR OWN HELMET.

Most riders aren’t going to shell out $60+ for a jersey when there is a $35 one next to it.
I have to disagree. This is a sport where people regularly spend hundreds of dollars for different colored parts, bolts, and wheels. People will buy the gear their favorite riders wear.
It is pretty obvious what sells by what is stocked at your local shop. If $200 pants sold a lot they would stock them instead of 4 different colors of the $100-120 pants.
Pit Row
Nothing worth while since the end of No Fear…
Apparently only Fox sells. That's all anybody stocks.
Sorry I just cannot buy Fasthouse!
Not because of the way it looks.
It's because I'm way too slow to be running around in gear called Fasthouse. True Story!
Need a combination of the kitty cat gear from Thor again and baggies to get caught on the kicker of a SUSUKI so you fall over sitting still.
No Fear and late 90s green Shift gear was the coolest.
FXR is doing it right. For race look stuff anyway.
What are you talking about?

It's just for their 2023 4.5 gear sets, the other gear sets you can purchase jersey and pants seperately.
I think some of the reasons they put out designs that are not for sale would be to see what people think of a colorway they are considering making, To get people talking about the brand and maybe go and check out their gear and see something they do make, that they had not seen yet and then buy it. Testing out materials . Make the rider feel special. etc.
And of course when they run the entry colors on high end fit, to help drive the sales on the lower end stuff. I'm sure some other reasons. but those are some that I could think of.
These are a few designs that i did for CanvasMX when designing still.
I had a lot of free reign when designing, but I know a lot, if not all have to confine to the "corporate look" now.
