Post-apocalyptic wear
« on: July 01, 2012, 07:53:50 PM »
If you ever wanted to look like an extra in one of those 80's movies...

I really like the part of the Important Safety Notice where it says "the possibility does exist that the mask can contribute to further injuries".

Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.

Their FAQ lacks the only real important thing - DOT and/or SNELL tested?

I'm going to guess not - in which case one would be a fool to wear this on a motorcycle.  Looks cool, though.  =)

Shouldn't they include some old football pads and helmets to fit in with the 80's stuff?

What, no Vader helmet/mask?

Those helmets? Yea, good for fetish club. Not so good for riding motorcycle.

Granted, AWESOME to go with a shotgun for answering a bump in the night.
