Interesting. I wonder if Simon will be involved in product design for them. Also, do you think the WGP property rights were part of the package? It's a dead brand, but you'd think the name would still mean something.

I think this is fantastic...JT has had some nice stuff but their latest designs haven't really been up to par aesthetically. Makes you wonder if the same guy designed the Viewloader blowbacks, the WGP SR, the Eye Force and their new Goggles.

Well only thing I care about is Spectra lenses really

I'm more curious about the older brands that have gotten their name tarnished over the last years and what will become of them.

I think JT took a step forward with all the FX stuff they came out with. I never shot their markers (Viewloader or WGP brands) so I can not really say to much about them.

KEE may actually revive JT

Flexes are phenomenal and I love their pants. Haven't tried much else though. oh wait...I had a Vlocity jr once. I thought it worked pretty well.

Until KEE starts giving a crap about the little shops, JT is now another brand I'll do my best to avoid and not carry any longer.
