Well it definitely screams I'm stuck in the past. But I guess the old guy market is what they are going after, so it works.

I honestly didn't know what to expect. I'm pleasantly surprised.

For the nay sayers... do you actually think that this is the only style of gear that they will produce? You want colors, different styles, etc? I doubt that the guys doing this threw all their money into the relaunch and forgot to design more than one set of gear, no?
Who own's JT now?

I though John and Rita sold to someone.

Hope they keep the simple elegance of some of the first gear from the l;ate 70's through the mid 80's.

As many of you know, I'm a huge Fox fan from back when they ran the race team. With all due respect to JT, nothing touches the early Fox stuff though the mid 80's, especially the original color scheme. Credit them for continuing some simple designs along with the acid trip gear. I can only imagine how much of the retro gear from 09 they would have sold had it gone into mass distribution. I would have killed for a set of that gear, but no go.

Now The FOX retro I would buy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't care for JT gear from the 70s, the unleathers pants would fall apart when you washed them so I never bought another set.

Guys come on.....can you honestly tell me if that stuff didnt have the letters J and T on them that you would actually think this is a good looking set of gear? Yeah its cool and all but is that gear, their 2011 stuff, really all that front page worthy?

You gotta remember, just because its old doesnt make it a classic.

Now bring the shit storm....

Go rain on someone else's parade, d bag..............
Gregory's are probably reading this thinking "Man, these SOB's are too easy. They all think we put all our eggs in one basket".
The Gregorys don't own the new JT Racing...in fact, the Gregorys aren't even the Gregorys anymore, having divorced years ago. But they are getting inducted into the AMA Hall of Fame in about an hour from now...

Oh, I forgot about those! I guess this is a case of selective amnesia?

I do think it is awesome to see JT coming back. I'm glad many like the example in that pic, but other than it being JT, nothing stands out as being special. I do hope they have some other designs that are more modern. What is the general consensus on the "Dogger" dalmation scheme they had? I loved those but that wasn't plain at all.

Not to rain on the parade some more, but someone talked about "The Gregory's" above. My understanding is that they are not involved in this new company (with an old Logo) at all. Correct?
correct....John and Rita have nothing to do with the new gear

Ewww JT gear *Barf* Does each XXL set come with a tie dye sunglasses strap and a subscription to MXA? You stupid fucks bitching about certain new gear lines and fashion without realizing you're sperging over this old ass gear for the very same fucking reason people buy the new stuff for. Now get back on your '92 CR 250 with gold spoke nipples and polished swing arm and STFU and get back on the vet track.

Really looks good.That helmet has got the styling .

Seriously, if you didn't know and some nobody showed up at the track with this stuff on but it read "Shenghui" instead of "JT Racing", you guys would've pointed and laughed. It looks like a cheap set of chinese gear, especially the jersey and helmet.

I waited for this gear to come out before buying anything this year but oh well, to each his own. TLD it is again for this year. This set should look pretty good with my 150SX or my Yamaha.

The gear looks quality, but the styling is terrible. And no, you old angry bastards, I don't rock the Fox LSD line. The helmet looks like shiiiit too.

So do you rock the TLD multiple personality disorder line like above? "Hey, I am in blue gear, now I am in orange, now I am in blue, no wait, now I am in orange, no wait, now I am in blue ...

Hahaha

No doubt about it, that gear is going to make people look back and laugh and say "What the hell was I think'n....

Put a large red and blue H on the chest, move the JT oval up under the collar, replace the JT logo on the thighs with HONDA logos, and that would be my next set of gear.
I hear that right there CamP.
You hit the nail right on the head.

I think this gear is AMAZING!
Look in one of the photos in the far left of the frame of the photo you can see the white/ red stuff.
Personally I think that the PANTS LOOK KILLER
But the jerseys are sad and they need to come out with alternate jerseys to buy that don't have some ugly chrome and other shit. But dude, I'm TOTALLY gonna be out there and rock the white with red!!!!!

Why all the white these days, turns to skid mark brown in 2 muddy days.

How about using stain resistant material, oh wait then they'd last half a season!

Some things are classic, some things are old. IMO this is on the classic side & would say JT will have another line besides the retro throw back. Come on, it makes sense to tease the public with the retro stuff.

Seriously though, you would look like the King Shit at the track if you were strutting around the local track in these babies with the matching jersey.

Stuff looks great. period. Too many damn fashionistas on here, must be waitin on the Prada collection or maybe some Jimmy choo mx boots (better looking than Nike no doubt) Sometimes its just nice to wear a brand because of the history its made and the memories that it left behind. I think my wife calls it the warm fuzzies.

Perhaps if they designed a set with spider webs, Technicolor puke stains and painball splatters some of these guys would be happy.
lol well said,

Classic, I like it. I am gonna buy some, like the clean white, blue and red stuff.
