What riding gear do you use?

What riding gear do you use? Dirt/street
Fox, Troy Lee, AXO, MSR,Oneal etc......

Do you just go for the best deal/or is there brands you just stay with?

Street= Troy Lee Design Shoei Helmet/ Alpinestar gloves/ Fieldsheer leather.

Dirt= All Troy Lee/ Alpinestar boots.


I like the T.L. designs but, my friend say's they're over priced
and avg. I dunno they seem ok so far.

I have alpinestar sp2 gloves, Speedrag stunter gloves & leather jacket. A joe rocket atomic textile jacket that i wore last summer. No leather pants yet, I picked up those speedrag textile pants...maybe they will be better than silvertab jeans. I dont have race boots or anything, so its work boots or my etnies. Oh, and an icon helmet, hopefuly i'll be getting somthing better this spring.(suomy/arai/shoei)

As for name brands, I usually go for cool looking stuff with a good deal. I bought alot of speedrag because of that 40% off deal, and they seemed to be behind the sport quite a bit.

It doesn't get that cold here in Arizona. It's 30 degrees here and it feels fine. As for gloves in the cold weather I use Olympia Wind Tex gloves.
