I bought everything at the same time from the same place, so it's all the same brand. As I get more gear it'll eventually become mix matched. What I can't stand is having different designs clashing, but brand names don't bother me. I'll wear anything as long as it'll protect me.

I don't think I have two pieces of gear from the same manufacturer.

I do! But only because I got talked into some girly gloves that went with my leather jacket.

And for the record, most of my gear is black, my helmet's red. But when I get the Icon jacket from Tigger at the rally, nothing is going to match!

I buy the gear that fits the best, so it will perform its job. Since manufacturers size their garments differently, I have to buy different brand items for the fit...I just try to get them to match the color as close as I can
