Why Does Everybody like Thor

I noticed from the poll that everybody (35%) prefers Thor. I was just wonering why; is it the fit, how the last, comfort?

It's the combination of those things for me. In my opinion it looks good, it stays together well, and it's very comfortable. Thor makes excellent gear.

I second ya on that DC323!!! I have just always liked it. They have just enouhg room, if not more for the fit escpeclly in the knee area for the braces.

they aren't a stuck up company like Fox...and they make cool designs.

Thor is just the best looking gear this year. All the other year's were ugly in my opinion this your it's just killer.

Well I like them more than FOX because EVERYBODY wears FOX even if they don't ride...

Like you'll see kids with FOX shirts and I'll be like "oh cool man, do you ride?" and he'll be like, "ride what?" and i'll just turn around and walk away

...

You don't see many kids (at least around here) wearing thor shirts if they don't ride...

OK - let's see how much y'all know about THOR.

What does it stand for, and why?

i hate fox. My stuff fell apart in 6 months. I had thor for over a year so I went back with that and baught the '05 core gear

Its super comfortable, good looking, holds up very well, and breaths good.

Alrighty Steve, founded in 68' I believe by Thorsten Hallman, 5 time Swedish 250 champ, had a funny original name, later convinced by close friend I believe to switch to just Thor.

but i cant remember

and i didnt like thor intell 2004, i used to love fox, but im sick of it, its borderline poser gear, i see 100 fox shirts and hats a day, and if i ever saw a thor hat, its usally because the guy is a rider

i like the new core punk and the new phase, look so nice

you people know too much...lol

I used to ride fox gear until last year i tried on some thor gear and it was waaaaaaay more comfortable....plus it just looks cooler!

No offense guys but I think all of the gear these days is butt ugly. To me it all looks like you've been playing paint ball and lost, but that just my taste or lack of it. Can anyone verify that Thor is the same company as the old Hallman products. If thats the case they all ways did make good stuff.

So if came down to Fox 360 pants or Core 4 pants what would everybody choose?
