Motorcycle Base Layers
Wearing the correct base layers is one of the most important things to do when you are motorcycling. Too often customers spend a lot of money on a decent suit and then ruin it by wearing a cotton T-shirt! Base layers need to be a proper breathable material so they help you regulate your body temperature. It is about keeping warm in winter, keeping cool in summer, allowing your body sweat to evaporate effectively and allowing your expensive suit to do its job properly. Even in winter sweat needs to escape to keep the body dry. And this is crucial because if you are wet on the inside, and the temperature drops further our bodies will lose heat 20 times faster through a wet environment than a dry one. The base layer is a building block in winter on top of which you need a technical mid layer.

Klim Zephyr Wind shirt in black
I bought this based on recommendations of a mate and because Motolegends do seem to be rather keen on it. I tend to feel the heat more than I feel the cold, so the last thing I want is something bulky or something that will overheat me. The Zephyr is very lightweight so no danger of me getting too warm, but it does a superb job of cutting the windchill when worn under a summer jacket even in the cold. Ive worn it off the bike a few times and it does just as good a job then as well. Highly recommended.
Klim Maverick down jacket in asphalt / black
This massively expensive bit of kit has been on my radar for a long time...finally took the plunge...its very good indeed. Is it worth the price tag?...well it certainly does what it says on the tin, so...I choose to try to move on from smarting from the expenditure and revel in cosiness instead! I guess this is all a part of buying American goods at the present time...an activity I currently in all good faith cant help but question somewhat? But the Maverick is everything it is touted to be so...over to you....
Klim Zephyr Wind shirt in grey
Super thin lightweight jacket, used in +8deg you can obviously feel the wind but no cold air on my body.used with a mid jacket and at motorway speed was very comfortable, very happy just need a Marrakech jacket
