Take no notice of them Si..........
Your head...your choice 
The best helmet in the world didn't save some people
What you really need (ALERT...FASHION TIP  ) is a good old flat cap
Soaks the blood up quicker than a helmet and you can wring it out afterwards

Simson lids are good for car racing only- craft are bike safe, so as for your craft, id rather crash from my bike in a craft than any simson- if you need visor for that craft, let me know! simson have a licence for american car racing and some for uk car racing but not bike! Craft have both!, get som ear plugs made up!

It would be nice if the will but i doubt if the 'new' company will do merchandise for the 'old' era bikes. Hope i'm wrong

I Think it will still be quicker and cheaper to get from those other "local Stockists" i.e. China  |

It must me just me.
To my eyes it looks a little chavy. Yes I know that word is not PC.
And they couldnt even be bothered to iron the stuff before photographing it. Thats poor very poor.
I'll get my coat......... |
mmmm, interesting comments, not sure, but some of it looks cheap was my first impression, as in iron on stickers cheap, I guess as long as they are cheap, then no problem
edit, sorry to appear negative, it good that these are available, but just doesn't look right for me, apologies
lol, second edit, didn't see there was a second page before replying, with link to prices, too much wine tonight lol. No need to say more

I did get the order I placed and the garments are fairly nice. I ordered a t-shirt, a zip up sweatshirt and the black jacket. Sizing is very much like Dainese or Ducati accessories, european sizing so I ordered +1 size for US and it was perfect.
I think they are fairly priced. The sweatshirt is probably the best buy. The "emotional technology" soft jacket is very fashionable. The red/white stripes on the back are sewn cloth as is the piping.
They did a good job on the t-shirts, very tight weave cotton and on some the logos are raised, not just screen printed. I do like the accent tabs and labels.
All in all I am a happy customer and the website was easy to use. Customer service top notch. If you have any specific questions I would be happy to try to answer.
Cheers
