Is there no market for plain riding gear?

IMO its more a skater look, here in Canada they sort of try to relate it to skateboarding and moto brands are sold in skate shops (west 49 zumiez etc) I personally like chads gear the best it looks like gear for a "racer"

Remember when Emig rocked up in 97 with the all black Shift top. I thought that was the start of something.

Maybe it's just me, but the gear i choose has a lot to do with being able to be seen in a pack of riders. My girlfriend always got scared off the start with a group of 40 bikes all tearing into the first corner, she likes my bright purple fly gear this year cos she can usually pick me out pretty quickly and it puts her mind at rest that im not the guy at the bottom of the pile.

That's the same reason i wear a helmet with a bright colour or with a lot of white in it, it's always easy to pick out pretty quickly.

And personally i like that shift faction stuff, i'd happily wear it, so lock me up i guess.
Yeah but you're an Aussie, you lot wear fluorescent bloody everything!

That gear is awesome, nice clean colorways, and the pants have lots of black and blue on them...I don't get what your saying, why do you need balls to wear this...white was the in thing during the O'mara, Ward era...

I thought Tomacs white gear at SD really looked great.

Personally I wouldn't have the balls to wear the stuff above, the gear that some clown threw up on!!

If you really want clean gear, Moose is the way to go.

I mean I don't like looking too... sorta 'hollywood' ...if you know what I mean? Especially here in England, it gets covered in shit pushing your bike to the gate! It is a lovely kit though.

Is that shift gear Reed is wearing? I like the design.
I went to their website and couldn't see anything even close to that.

it hasn't been released yet. They just announced like last week that they will be releasing it to the public. Not sure when though.

It was the start of something. The start of the end of Emig's career.
You could always rock the "Klim" look. Starting at only $849.99 dollars American. Yes, I said $849.99





Jerseys too.

I am guessing the '11 O'Neil line isn't doing it for you either?




Maybe I don't get it, but a lot of the new gear looks like something a cartoon Super Hero would wear. You know- "Lightning Bolt Man" or "Stripe Slayer" or maybe "Polka Dot Destroyer" - something like that...

That Kilm kit is their Adventure around the world gear, not MX gear. They have some plain gear, built very well and not super expensive. Moose used to be plain, but it is even starting to get busy. I like a lot of new TLD stuff myself.

I am one of those old guys that thinks late 70 early 80s JT is the shits.

This looks like something you'd see at the gay pride parade...not that there's anything wrong with that.

Best gear ever! Don´r know why the last pic doesn´t work, but it is of the coolest gear: The black gear with the silver helmet! Jeff wears it in his profile pic on facebook too! I´d buy 5 sets including the helmets if they re-released it today!
