Well I'm one of those very rare All The Gear, All The Time guys so I'd rather see people wear Joe Rocket than nothing at all. But given the option, I believe there are more protective options at a similar price. But opinions on gear are like a$$ho!3$ and everyone has one, I'll pay for better designs and higher quality. I understand most don't/won't. So if the option is Joe Rocket or nothing, I endorse Joe Rocket but much of it doesn't appear to meet any actual safety standards.Lol Joe Rocket
On a budget, FirstGear is amazingly well designed and uses good material.
