As a brand, 100% has long been associated with motocross Americana, with roots that date back to the early 1980’s, during one of the most iconic eras of the sport. The lineage can be traced back to legends like David Bailey, Johnny O’Mara, and Rick Johnson, who wore the 100% logo on their jerseys, with a modern rebirth that has seen the brand reclaim its prominence within the motocross world while also expanding into other sports like cycling, mountain biking, snow sports, and even baseball.
Today, the lineup of 100% athletes features the biggest names in the SuperMotocross World Championship Series, including reigning Pro Motocross, Supercross, and SuperMotocross World Champion Jett Lawrence, fellow SuperMotocross World Champion Haiden Deegan, former Pro Motocross Champion Dylan Ferrandis, multi-time MX2 World Champion Tom Vialle, and multi-time Supercross Champion Cooper Webb.
“The legacy of 100% dates back to one of the most formative periods in the history of American motocross, making it a name that has become synonymous with not just the Pro Motocross Championship, but the sport as a whole,” said Davey Coombs, President, MX Sports Pro Racing. “The modern evolution of the brand, which was founded by late visionary Drew Lien, has seen it become a multi-faceted company, with products worn by the most recognizable and talented names in not just motocross, but also a wide array of sporting disciplines. We are grateful for their many years of support as the ‘Official Eyewear’ of the Pro Motocross Championship and celebrate their continued successes on the racetrack.”
