Motorcycle Jerseys

Believe it or not, but besides creature comfort features, motorcycle jerseys have several protective qualities. They are usually made from lightweight polyester fabrics and are intended to be worn over a set of armor designed to provide impact protection for shoulders, back, chest, and elbows. The combination of jersey and armor has several significant advantages over a motorcycle adventure jacket as it is much lighter and provides much better airflow helping to keep you cool in hot weather. By wearing just a jersey over your armor, you can reduce fatigue while battling dunes and blazing new trails in the wilderness.

Since the armor under your jersey is strapped directly to your body, it is less likely to shift upon impact contributing to your overall safety. The only downside to this setup is that it has little to no resistance to abrasions in case of a crash and sliding on gravel, asphalt, or concrete. To choose a jersey that will suit you best, you should know some of its main attributes. In our store, you can select from a variety of vented and non-vented jerseys. On a hot or humid summer day, you may want to consider choosing a vented jersey with a large open mesh that allows your body to stay cool thanks to more efficient heat dissipation.

Non-vented jerseys are manufactured out of polyester blended with other fabrics that give them moisture wicking properties. Such jerseys help you stay dry and comfortable by taking moisture away from your body and drying quickly in the wind. Some jerseys come with padded elbows, but don’t think for a second that this light foam padding can fully protect your elbows. Make sure to wear a set of elbow guards under your jersey. All jerseys come with either a V-type neck or crew neck. If you plan on riding in hot weather, you may prefer a V-neck jersey that offers the feeling of openness and provides better ventilation.

When it is cooler outside, consider opting for a crew neck jersey that can give you additional protection from wind and tree branches when riding in a wooded area. Jerseys with cuffed sleeves are usually chosen by racers and riders who like to feel a firm grip around their gloves while protecting their sleeves from dirt and wind. Cuffless jerseys provide better ventilation than their cuffed counterparts. Many jersey models offered in our store come with an extended tail section with better traction to prevent it getting untucked during a long ride. Graphics and lettering on our jerseys are printed using the dye-sublimation process so they will not fade or peel over time.

The motorcycle jerseys offered on our website are sized similarly to standard t-shirts but bear in mind that you may need to wear a set of armor underneath. High-quality bike jerseys made from durable, lightweight fabrics can help you stay cool and protected while improving your performance on a track. Each rider should have a set for hot or cold weather. When it is chilly outside, choose a jersey with a layer of fleece to keep you warm. In addition to their primary function, motorcycle jerseys offer an excellent way to show your pride in your favorite team.
