Attn race fans... Joe Roberts gear?

Does anyone know of an online USA source for Joe Roberts gear? A hat? Shirt? Anything? I can't find anything. Since I'm always talking trash about the state of the American motofan and roadracing, I figure I'd throw some $$ at Joe and have people ask me about whatever swag I'm wearing.

I asked the American Racing Team about this on Twitter. Will report back when I get an answer. In the meantime, can I interest you in some Johan Zarco baguette sleeves?

Frankly outside of the VR|46 brand, I think the rest of the riders' swag is garbage unless it's coming directly from the a marketing heavy manufacturer like KTM.

Try finding decent Aprilia swag or a tshirt from any of the Satellite MotoGP/Moto2 teams and you'll run into the same issue.

Most of these folks use the same vendor like Top-Racers... hahaha which I just checked and they do have Joe Roberts gear!

https://www.top-racers.com/us_en/riders/joe-roberts.html

I'll finish my rant anyways, biggest problem is that all swag/chotckies vendors struggle to make money with the volumes of a single riders which is why there is only a handful of vendors that carry several riders just for economies of scale... Unfortunately, unless an owner of a promo company becomes a MotoGP fan and decides to run a store just to appeal to nutheads like me without actually making money I don't see this changing any time soon.

BTW - a JR tshirt with shipping is $54 yowza...

If 30 of it went to Joe..well. I guess I would pay $54.. but wow.

Think he gets $10?

I guess I could just take his logo and put it on a hat or shirt myself. Dorna and Roberts can send the cease and desist letter to BARF.
