Oh hell no. I have a lot of Joe Rocket stuff, but not all. I buy what I like and what fits me well. Fit is hugely important in gear being able to do it's job in the event of a crash/slide, so I'm not going to buy stuff just cus it matches; I'm going to buy what fits the best.

I've got jackets by Joe Rocket, Power Trip and Cortech. I've got gloves by Joe Rocket and Alpinestars. I've got boots by Teknic and Axo. And my helmet is Arai.

Nope.

right now... I have a A* jacket, Boots, Gloves, pants, and knee armor. my leather pants though are Teknic.

I don't really care WHAT brand it is... but A* just seems to fit me the best... and has the quality I require.
