With the September release of the  “Throwback MC11” in the Klutch model, SPY is thrilled to have its favorite son honored in the Motorsports Hall of Fame. Jeremy’s 11th signature goggle features a triple row silicone, black face fleece, green vent covers, a signature MC print on the smoke with green mirror lens and to top it all off includes a free bonus lens! Jeremy’s retro design was inspired by his first SPY MX goggle season that put him on track for fame and for the world to welcome his greatness with open arms.

Jeremy never ceases to amaze us and we are proud to join with him the highest honor Motorsports has to offer.

Stay tuned for full coverage as Fuel TV will be filming his special induction into an episode of FIRST HAND.
