I'm not entirely in agreement with you on this one. They're older stuff may not have been great, but the more recent lines are pretty well-constructed. I can sadly say that I crash tested my Joe Rocket Cleo gear, and it saved me from much worse injuries, and it suffered only a small tear on the the lower part of the knee at the bottom edge of the armor - still very wearable - and I don't worry about it holding up at all after that
