I just thought that we should think of some things that are really lacking in the sport. What are some clothing items that really need to be improved or added to our sport?
There aren't many companies that make the products so sometimes there is not very much of a variety. I have found myself buying things like winter gloves that i don't like but they're all that's available.
Maybe we can spark some new things

off the top of my head i think spd shoes could be a lot better.

Sunglasses that don't fog up.

Where I live humidity is like 9328% 12 months a year and I haven't found any eye protection that works.

How about leg protection that can be peddled with (REALLY) & not hot for my so cal trails(REALLY). I know others claim these items exist, but not in my reality.
We probably need a breakthrough in technology for this to materialize..

I never gave much thought to the fact that there aren't many MTB dedicated clothing/accessory options.

I've always done my picking and choosing from primarily road cycling companies to meet my needs...Castelli, Pearl Izumi, Nike, Sidi, Rudy Project. Most of those offer some items specifically for MTB. Maybe Sixsixone should expand.

So maybe we should have another new option just for us. It's a million dollar idea.

i gotta say that sounds even sillier than the snowboarder wearing saga/ skier wearing burton debate.

yeah, I have quite a mixture for my gear. It just happened that way over the years.
