Nah, I would expect much more creativity from an acid trip...

this is a poor attempt of the same design topic on the 09' T.H.E. "Ink"

Looks like they just took all the stickers from past troy lee sucky helmets and put them on One helmet.

they produce a black helmet themed midnight. could they just produce a black kit like they did 3 or 4 years ago? stupid costumes, now on race day you'll be handed candy as you cross the finish line. just remember only eat the ones in wrappers.

Ya... They make such a good product, I don't get why they don't just come up with color schemes just as appealing.

Anyways, also realize this is for motocross too, and people in moto can be trend whores and love to match even more than dh people do.

pulled the trigger on a closeout 2009 SE2 and SE Green jersey pants combo last night after I saw the 2010 stuff. I was debating waiting on the 2010 stuff until I saw it. The Pistonbones and GP stars look pretty good. The rest, uhh, not for me, I'm not that fast.

The Fox 2010 looks like a color explosion too. The kids at the MX track like it. Not sure why. That said, you should see me DH Ski outfit from 1990. Not much better.

Bunch of haters.

I've long thought that we should be following ski/snowboarding footsteps and go bright/loud.

Photographers will love it. Nothing worse than someone turning up in black or brown.

I'm liking this.

I like it. My favorites are:

2010 Troy Lee Designs GP Jersey Pant Combo Star
2010 Troy Lee Designs GP Jersey Pant Combo Beta
2010 Troy Lee Designs GP Air Jersey Pant Combo Bolt

Not sure I think it's better than 2009 though.

I'd like to see abit more diverse selection. Surely they should release more?

Luckily for the boring type who wants just plain (so they don't risk looking "gay" lol), it is still possible to buy such kits from Fly, Answer etc. Even though Answer has some more extreme designs they have some boring too.

I'm all for it too, have some fun with it... Admittedly i'd like to just wear a nice bright jersey with some plain shorts or something. But if most people on this forum had their way, it'd be plain black everything. Why does TLD get such heated responses from everyone for pretty much EVERYTHING that they produce, when every other company producing similar bright loud kits gets ignored. Is it just impossible for TLD to lose the cool factor? There is plain gear available, why all the whining every time a new pajama suit shoes up?

Its not 'heat' its silly clown wear being mocked. It doesnt require any anger or hate to be amused by silliness. Just because the silly dont realize they're silly doesnt make them any less silly.

Silly.

Now for a Pajama Jammy Jam!

Yeah, it's huge right now but I think people see how foolish it looks in MX or the snow and don't want it happening to our sport.

Maybe I'm just old and scarred from wearing this crap in the '80s. I still cringe when I see some old pics from that era.
