Default A Decision Has Been Made!!!

As everyone knows and few care,I've been searching for a track suit for some time. Well after careful consideration I've decided to say FUCK IT and get these pants instead. They will 360 or 8" zip to my Joe Rocket jacket (to be honest,I kinda forgot about it...),they are a more relaxed fit and not so "racer boy". To be honest,I don't need knee pucks or the like anymore (besides,I could always add them later if necessary)and I'm mostly getting them for the Rally/Deal's Gap and may never wear them again afterward . The best part is,I found them for $200 (retail is $300) and hopefully they flow some fucking air! Oh and I like the over the boots design too.

New Enough has the Blasters for $195 shipped and the Rider's Direct has the Pro Street pants for $205.99.

I REALLY considered the Hovocs too but with me owning a Joe Rocket jacket and all.... and knee pucks being mandatory...

Funny thing is the Shift's are almost impossible to get a deal on because Fox has such strict pricing controls and also controls distribution.

If you are interested I've seen leather,textile and leather/textile mix pants from $60-$500. Check Competition Accessories,they have leather "race style" pants for $159 shipped or Zero-60 Warp Air leather pants for $180.
