Dye get my vote with the exception of their goggles, why i hear you ask... they sit really dumb on my face and they push on the end of my nose, so after even half a day marshallin you get a nasty pressure sore, also the lens are a pig to change, i had a full on fight with the invisions once, the JT's are simple, surpassed only by the v-force lens change system, but they aren't as comfy and flexible. other than that the Dye kit is way sexy, some quality gear comin out of there too, the Dye autocockers, the boomy's and ultralite's and those new air systems look pretty sweet.

Pants - JT's are plainly just Dynastys and 'Lanches pants from the last season. Not saying their bad though, they look pretty cool. I used to have JT Zip-Offs and they were so uncomfortable, i used to wear another pair of tracksuit bottoms under them. I have never had a problem with the Dye Gear, right now I have the 2002 Dye Pants and they are so comfortable, I have had no problem whatsoever with them. I cant wait to get the 2003 Pants!

Jerseys - Once again Dye. JT has lost it with their design. The old designs were they had the liquid, flame design etc..
Dont like the new one but the dye one has the padding etc..

Gloves - I use JT gloves to Marshall in and Dye Gloves to play. Both decent gloves, i prefer the Dye ones because of the look of them mostly.

Masks - Dye Invision Rock! I dont know why anybody thinks they fog, they do not! Alot of people say about there not being alot of protection. Doesn't seem to bother me in the least. Jt Flex's still kick ass though, I use them to marshall and practice. Dye Invision is kept for competitions :p


Pads - I use JT Ones on my arms, used to use Trace Knee/Shin on my legs, Both do they trick. Just ordered me a pair of Dye Armpads and JT Kneepads (skinz).

Casual - Dye has so much more to choose from, they have socks, boxers, caps, beanies, headbands, girls tee's, guys tee's, girls hoodys, guys hoodys, jackets, girls caps, girls bucket hats etc..
So much to choose from..

So in conclusion, JT are good but Dye are taking over the market.

In all honesty, I do prefer Dye gear but im not saying Jt gear is crap.
I read reviews on the Jt Skinz and ordered myself a pair. Of course they are gonna be worn under my Dye Pants.
Right now i use Jt arm pads, they rule, they protect and they cause bounces.

So fluck off Tony lol :p

I should be a spokesperson :rolleyes:

personal favourite is 'say cheese'or 'size matters'

Pretty much all the Dye stuff looks great and better than their JT counterparts IMHO. The Invision goggles are utterly useless for anyone like me who wears glasses. Beacuse they are soo close to your face, it is impossible to wear specs under them. So for me to wear them i'd have to not wear my glasses, which would result in me not being able to hit sh|t and falling over a lot...................

Hmm..... maybe they dont make that much differernce after all.

The Dye ATC shoes look fantastic, and are really comfy but the problem is they dont have very good grips on them to suit the grass(and mud at the moment) fields we have over in blighty. They might be fine for dusty hard earth over in calif, but not here. Have JT done any shoes?
