First Look: 2017 Troy Lee Designs Apparel Range 4

​Hot on the heels of last week's 2017 helmet range launch, TLD is now dropping the second and final part of this year's catalog - apparel, protection, and accessories. We're always stoked for fresh new riding kit, especially when it works well and looks good, and we admit to being a bit extra curious when it comes to the new looks cooked up by Troy Lee each year. The 2017 crop looks like a good one, with a few particular highlights headlining the show: all-new Sprint Air and Skyline Air for those who live and ride in warmer climates, all-new women's Ruckus line for the ladies who shred hard, and of course all-new colors and graphics for the classics: Ruckus, Skyline, and Sprint. So without further ado, let's dive right in!
