Is wearing "PRO" jerseys wrong?

[Monster708]

So I have only been back on bikes for a few months now and I wanted to get back into racing and I found the new Thor monster energy pro circuit riding gear online and bought it.....!

Now the question.... If you feel good about what you wear and maybe it gives you a bit of confidence to see yourself in pro gear, is it wrong to sport it? I have the 09 KX450f monster energy edition bike and now everything matches and I feel great riding even though I am no where near a pro... Y'all's thoughts??

When I used to race I always wore boots, blue jeans, a chest protector and a padded jersey. I never much cared for the disco look. Function over form.

If you got it wear it I just got all new gear and it all matches even the gloves. All red and black to go with my Honda,

then I went out and stupidly put a downpayment on a new Husky now I'll have to get all new stuff AGHHHH!!!!

Why even waste time worrying about what anyone else thinks. Whatever makes you happy can only be a good thing  ? .

[Falcon 1]

Other riders will know you're not a Pro regardless of what you wear...  wear what makes you happy.

 

Don't worry about what other riders think..

 

Have fun, ride safe.

 

Cheers. 

[SellYour4Stroke]

All that gear is made for riding, so yeah...youre wearing completely appropriate stuff.

Godspeed

[WWalker]

Wear what you like! Who cares what others think.

[SnowMule]

I let my riding do the talking, not what i'm wearing.

[Dragon67]

The great thing about new gear is if you ride hard enough it doesn't stay new looking for very long.  Kind of like showing up to a job site with brand new Timberlands and work belt.  Eventually that stuff shows that you have been around.

 

Know why black is the highest belt in martial arts?  Cause everyone starts with white, but as they practice it gets progressively dirty.  So the tradition continues.  Hope you wear your new stuff with pride, and get it dirty without getting hurt.

 

Take pics now!  LOL.

[Mr_Motocross]

Who cares? MX clothes look retarded compared to normal clothes anyway. If you're going to dress up in superhero pajamas outfit you might as well wear the one you like the best

[Monster708]

Thanks for the input guys... I plan to get dirty for sure!!! I loved racing and both my sons race 65cc class and I had to get back in it after watching them enough.

Dude you're over thinking the little shit

 

If it makes you happy, if it's morally right , and it's not hurting anyone then do whatever you want.  Doesn't matter what people think cause ya can't please em all anyway...

 

Do everything right like a saint and the unhappy "fault finders" will still seek out something negative to ridicule you about, cause they can't stand themselves...

 

Wear what you like and ride on ?

Timberlands are always brand new looking, that or in the trash. They're an awful excuse of a work boot and a terrible style trend.

I've seen new pairs get absolutely trashred in 2-3 weeks.....

Redwings, Chippewa's, Carolina's, all good options.

Right now i have a set of the Carolina super loggers but they're about dead.... i want another pair though they've been amazing. and ill be working on a concrete plant this summer. Those places turn boots into dust.......

I also like the Dakota Spider Tread (not sure if that's the right name).  They're a cheaper boot but light, comfy, and good support...

I think the last pair they ran around $160 up here.  Whereas the Redwings run around $330...

Wow, i got my Carolinas shipped about 180$. I also learned it is a million times cheaper to buy directly from the website instead of the local store that sells them

Yeah a lot of things tend to be overpriced up my way, but my employer will reimburse me for boots, so don't mind spending their money...lol.
