Who owns JT Racing now? They've gone completely sh*t for brains with their new website and gear.

They should do a collab between fox thor and JT. They could release the "Hella Fast cat born under the california sun"

I hate myself for commenting this.

"Lifestyle Racewear" It's obvious who they are going after here, and it aint us. Might be a small portion of us wearing fashion clothing...maybe...

My favorite set of gear is JT Racing Hyperlites, I guess the last og gear JT made. Hyperlites fit super comfortably and I love the color schemes they had. I kick myself for not getting a few more sets.

I’m just a dumb Canadian having a laugh at how a once great MX brand is now a wanna be Supreme type of lifestyle wear marketed to Wheelie Boyz and posers.
I checked out the brands corporate website. The mission statement makes it pretty clear they are a branding company.
I think it’s fair to say JT no longer has any association with offroad motorcycles.

It's not all bad. When I think born and raised under the California sun, I think raisins. That's a good thing. Right?

crazy part is... the whole Vintage/Retro stuff is super popular now with the fashion. 16-27 year olds i would say the age bracket is.
you go out to the clubs or bars now and a lot of people will be wearing 80/90's MX appeal and surf gear.
its just the fashion hahaha crazy at is is.. it cost more now then it did then.

I was at a bar last sunday and a girl was wearing a 95' McGrath Jersey cut into a crop top... & another girl in an old Honda of Troy Hoodie. sad times.
But people out side the moto world people have no clue hahaha

That's the best looking JT gear since the brand reemerged 10 or so years ago. Jerseys only, but whatever...it will appeal to the urban street-style BMX riders the brand is now targeting. It's a huge market and I wouldn't be surprised to see JT take off again in the new genre.

I was victimized by these crooks last year. Camel Supercross gloves split the seam on the thumb/palm less than ten minutes into a lazy dual sport ride. They looked great, but crap quality. No reply to emails asking to return them.

A couple of years ago i randomly ran into the owner and his rep on a train ride from the airport in Milan. I believe owner's name was Jason, and the rep was a Kiwi legend, if I remember correctly it was Darryll King. They were on their way to a trade show. I had a good chat with them, seemed like great guys.

*Darryl Atkins, an acquaintance of mine. He's a cool cat, almost won an AMA Supermoto title in 2008. He came to America for a while back in '86 or '87 and stayed with my friend Frankie Brundage. I got to ride with him at least once back then and later worked with him when I was at Bel-Ray.

EDIT: ...And it's a shame about JT, although some of the product on this page looks OK....? https://jtracingusa.com/collections/bundles. Is this an old website?

I'm betting all the new JT gear is made in China.

I looked at that link and some of it looks pretty cool if your looking for new old gear. Like remakes of the popular 80's and early 90's stuff I remember. MX gear again too. I looked the last time this thread had popped up and it was BMX stuff and no MX stuff. But they have some dalmatian gear, camel , Honda and Suzuki, the flames  design that was around in the early 90's from what I remember.  I looked quickly and saw sizes from from 28-42 in pants and small-3XL in the jerseys.  Gloves s-2XL .

Im betting it's the Webig guy who got busted for taking advantage of illegal labor, and blamed the illegals. Could be wrong.
