One would think I'm an Answer clothing fanatic but that's not the case. I just loved their late 80's and early 90's gear.

I had a set of this same colour in 95. And along with my purple and nuclear red 95 CR250 I thought I was cooler than fonzie!!!

Man I wish I still had this gear...

I likey this gear. Also, I really really really wish Factory Effex would come out with this graphic kit as a "retro kit" for the new KX's, it has always been my favorite looking graphics kit.


Gets my vote! Always loved the shift stuff in the Emig days

Best gear will be different for each person.

The guys that were around 20-30 years ago will think the plain gear with patches is the greatest.

The people from the 90's will think the gear from that era is the greatest.

People new to the sport will think what's on the shelves now is the greatest wear ever made.

It's all about perception and your age. This thread will never produce a "best ever gear"

I just thought I would up a photo from the last ten years and change things up.

This isn't my favourite colourway, but I loved this early THOR gear with the swirl logo on the jersey.

Oh shit bro! That's it for me hand's down. I was 15 at the time that came out and would love to have a set and would rock it today. Anyone have a picture of Bradshaw or Stanton in the white pants? Bradshaw with the AXO gear and the original VFX Shoe helmet will always be the epidome of bad-ass to me. I think the boots were called RC-2's and were the first boots with almost no break-in time. Awesome awesome gear.
6-Time rockin the white AXO gear...

I liked this Thor gear when Thor would put the riders number on the front and shoulders of the jersey

In my opinion this was the last of the cool JT gear. Shortly after this they started putting flames and other crap on their jerseys and that was the beginning of the end.

This gear was cool (as was nearly all JT gear from the 80's thru to the mid 90's). Here's Chicken in '93



EDIT. This isn't Chicken, it's Larry Ward. My bad. Chicken wore Extreme in 93.
