I loved the Shift stuff way back to Emig and carried on with Reed and Shift. If they don't think he was worth it they are fucked and I will go somewhere else. Reed and Shift were always bad ass.

Fly might be nice gear but it is consistently the ugliest shit on the market year in and year out. Don't care what JT$ says.

Yeah i don't want Reed in Fly.


In my opinion Fly failed with the 2017 collection. 2016 was way better.


Thor or Alpinestars. That is what i want to see.

What if he had the same impact on Fly he had on Shift? I don't think he'd have a problem telling them to scrap everything and start with a blank piece of paper.

Fly of 2016 is way, way ahead of Shift 2010.


Even if i'm not a fan of the 2017 collection of Fly i really liked the 2016 Lite Hydrogen line up.

Without wanting to insult anyone or their gear tastes, Shift before Chad was horrible. Absolutely horrible.

Actually, the 2017 Shift lineup is maybe the worst since Reed joined Shift.

I agree Shift before Chad was horrible. Apples to apples in my mind. Fly is in desperate need of design help.

This is a huge mistake. Chad single handily relaunched shift back when he first created team 22. Shift will be obsolete in a few short years.

Please don't end up in Fly. The coolest rider on the track doesn't deserve to be in that crap.

JohnRoy or Blake Shelton, whichever, since you are in Boise, come by our offices and let me show you some of the "crap" we have been working on. If you think it's "crap" after that, I will stand corrected. I think you might be surprised with what 2018 is hiding.

Expected something more interesting.

No doubt before JT$ even chimed in. No way FOX wasn't going to look after him or Chad leave after drinking Champers out of their boots. My other post was sarcasm for those that don't have the radar

I'm not being disrespectful to the OP, Reed or anyone else, but when I see news like this I immediately think "Holy shit, could I care and LESS what gear anyone rides with?"

I mean, I like to see cool dedigns like anyone else, but do I care what any certain rider is wearing? Absolutely not. Hell, they're getting PAID to wear it. Why would that effect my decision on what to buy?

Anyway, I mean no disrespect to anyone at all. It's just my opinion.

The thing is. Reed made Shift after 2011.

Shift would be nothing without Reed.

I never purchased any of the shift stuff Reed designed. I wear shift because of Emig. I go back and forth shift and Troy Lee

I guess i haven't got your taste in that case.

I purchased shift from the beginning and am about to order their throwback gear they just released. Before that I purchased sinisalo/white like wardy.

It's as if the world has forgotten how just a little bit of tact and class can come off as constructive criticism vs being a douche.

Do the Shift and TL pants fit the same?
I like Shift (because of the squadron line for off-road, and the white camp and black jersey for moto)
