![]() JT now offered all manner of innovative and increasingly stylish MX gear, including gloves, pants, goggles, jerseys, face guards, air filters, gear bags, chest protectors, shoulder pads, casual wear and posters. They then added a product that would soon revolutionize the entire industry – nylon motocross pants.īy the mid 1970s, JT Racing’s growth mirrored that of the sport of motocross itself – meteoric. They soon added matching jerseys to the line, and signed Hallman Racing – their first distributor – to sell them. The couple hired Joel Robert to wear and promote JT socks for the princely sum of $100 and all the socks he could use. At that moment, JT Racing Imports was born. But Rita swapped the letters due to TJ’s seedy reputation. John offered ‘TJ’, or Tijuana, where the socks originated. The new company needed a name when a business license became necessary, and one was conjured hastily while in line at the county office. The socks sold quite a bit better than expected, and by 1970 the Gregorys had shuttered the pharmacy and were pursuing their fledgling motocross business full-time. The couple sold socks out in the desert and at the track from the trunk of their car, as well as from a glass case in their pharmacy lobby. Colorful, stretchy motocross socks that John and Rita Gregory – a pharmacist couple living in San Diego – figured might sell well enough to offset John’s growing racing expenses during the late 1960s.
