Motocross Gear Style

Racing dirt bikes when he was in it's infancy riders wore whatever was available to protect themselves. Open face helmets, and pants Jofa, protect skin ... Was also no protective equipment specifically for dirt bike racing, riders looked more like confused hockey playing bikies than dirt bike racers!





And Sport (Sport in the mind of the world's best for you:) became more popular, and growth was then able to maintain a 'parallel or manufacturing industries free of charge. Companies such as United States of America T., Sinisalo etc. could now focus primarily on making only motocross gear.




And now more money being paid to research and development of motocross gear, and take care of riders and marketing programs.
The focus is more on the style that has been added color to the gear to match dirt bike coloring or just to be outrageous and different. The large pink mid-eighties (I'm not saying it was always in good taste).
The body armor that is worn over the upper part of the race jerseys so they become more streamlined to appeal to users. In itself became a fashion statement, but researched and tested to be practical and also provide maximum comfort. Body armor has today 'floating' shoulder cups as well as the return of a flexible and side panels to meet all of the sitting and standing positions when riding. Can come in a wide range of color options including also evident as is the case in building the kidney belts on some models.

Received a special treat there own race pants are made of heavy duty nylon with doubled stitching, extra room in the butt to meet the crouched / sitting position, as well as riding cordura, kevlar and leather panels in high wear areas such as the seat and knees. Panels use the elastic to allow movement when necessary. Pant and the quality of racing will provide extra room in the knee to knee braces that allow riders more and more wearing.

Jersey material went from cotton to sweat / moisture wicking polyester / cotton blends to offer greater comfort for long periods of riding. Vented panels were placed in 'hot spots' and even little touches such as rubber strips at the bottom to hold them in the pants to ride the race even tougher.
Shoes are being designed to deal with the downturn of high-impact and protect the ankle at the end. Replace the soles and buckles prolonging their use. Now, carefully to avoid collateral damage and hyperextension movements around the ankle.
Dirtbike gloves - Choose wisely and make sure they fit correctly. Some gloves more appropriate for certain types of riding than others. Motocross gloves offer better feel for the rider with less padding in the palms. Enduro gloves can be the opposite with more padding to give greater comfort for longerHorseback riding.
Can be found on the elbow protection in the "How", which also covers the forearms. Shin guards, knee / are lighter as well as some of the strongest and hinder 'lateral' movement of the knee (gone are the days of the skateboarders use protection). Although the beginning of a light composite materials and could be the ultimate in protection with knee braces.
It would all this protection does not mean anything if you can not see it. Therefore, it is very, very important to protect properly and one of the greatest assets of your (as well as one of the five senses) in your eyes. Goggle manufacturers registered in different names for the lenses, but they mean essentially the same thing - scratch resistant, and shatterproof protection for your eyes.
