Recently SHOT products entered the US market, which immediately caught the attention of the media, racers and our team as well.

“We are always looking for new brands that complement our product offering and the MX apparel segment was definitely a void we needed to fill” says Greg Blackwell of MTA. “Once we noticed the response from the market in such a short period of time, it was obvious that off road consumers accepted this brand and therefore made our decision to move forward with this acquisition very easy.”
