When I first started riding, there were a few things I looked at and thought, "There is no way that is worth that much money."

I figured the cheaper option would probably do the same job. A couple of years later, there are a few pieces of gear I'd replace immediately if I lost them tomorrow.

Not necessarily because of safety either. Sometimes it's just the comfort, convenience, or the fact that it makes riding so much more enjoyable.

I'm curious what it was for other people. What's a piece of motorcycle gear you thought was overrated at first, but now would not want to ride without?
