Kinda disappointing actually. I mean, it looks cool but it looks exactly like all the other retro gear like MSR and Answer. I was expecting something more exciting than another retro redo. Maybe their other syles or colorways will be different.

I agree... In fact I think this stuff will look great with my TLD Doug Henry helmet from a few years ago..

Finally something decent....phew!
I would bet they have a throwback series as well as something with the modern style.
They have a reputation to uphold and I wouldn't think they would piss down their own leg and make it look like the Fox or Shift clown costumes available now.

I had that SE2 Henry helmet. It hurt my head so bad, felt like I was wearing a square on my head. I think I had a lemon, really wanting the new SE3.

I don't know what you guys that are disappointed expected but I think the gear is sick looking. I love how they brought together the old retro look with a current styling. I expected a lot out of JT and they exceeded my expectations.

Love it!!!

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....

Pants look solid, and I saw another picture where you can tell they are heavy duty looking. The jersey itself looks good, but the everything about the logo is off. It looks too small and a bit out off place.

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?

I think it looks like PJs when the jersey and pants match. I like the pants, how about a plain jersey in a different color than the pants?

Too old school looking for me, hopefully the full line isn't like that or I don't see them getting any major market share. Cool for the older guys who dig the look though.

Yes Tbteam, that is the only set of gear they will ever produce! Good news though, it will come in Small, Medium, and Large. Whole damn company hanging by a single set of gear.

Heh, what else would you expect from Vital.Blink

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.

That's too bad... you should contact them and let them know. I bet you they would hook you up with some store credit or something. Did you ever try on any other SE2's? Haven't seen an SE3 yet besides pictures, but it looks bad ass.

Gonna be a lot of vet guys rolling that stuff, hopefully they made a crap load of XL jerseys and 34+ pants.
