Ladies and Gents,

I would just like to know...which do you prefer?

If anyone has insight as to which is actually a better company, your input is welcome.

Joe rocket fit me better, and I liked the vent system on the speedmaster series.

I like alpinestars better. I have 2 joe rocke jackets and joe rocket pants and an alpinestars jacket. I like the alpinestars better.

I think the A-stars has better protection and the construction is a bit better as well. That said, any leathers will protect you more than no leathers, IMO

does anyone know if AlpineStars makes any leather jackets in Yellow or Yellow combos?

Alpinestars is better made. I tried on every brand without prejudice and the Alpinestars felt as if I were protected more than any other brand.

I use a Joe Rocket "Razor" suit for canyon riding. Lightweight, ballistic material; good protection! JR Speedmaster boots too :mrgreen:

i ride with a joe rocket jacket. i love it, only one complaint, the leather starts getting warm when you aren't moving, other than that, love it! :rocker:

I had a JR blaster leather jacket, and I hated it. It never seemed to fit right and always had kind of a cheap feel to it. Also, no matter what I did I couldn't get the neck part to break in properly. I now own an A* TZ-1 2-pc and I love it. It fits me much better and seems to be of much higher build quality.

I have three sets of JR gloves, including a set of Speedmasters. I hate every single one of them. Again, they really don't fit me properly even though the size is correct. I replaced with A* GP Pros and am much happier. I have a similar story with boots since I started with some JR boots and then moved to Sidi.

Yup all there Stunt variations have a yellow option, there are a couple others that come in yellow though, but I don't recall the names right now, but I personally have the yellow Stunt and it's sweet.
