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.

Verified customer reviews for Motorcycle Base Layers

Icebreaker mens merino 560 Realfleece Elemental II long sleeve zip jacket

Sam_S: Much too nice for just the bike!

Far too nice a garment to keep for riding. I wear mine as a smart casual cardigan. Perfect for chilly mornings and evenings.

Klim Zephyr Wind shirt in black

Steve R: Excellent addition to my kit

A lovely quality, simple jacket - just does what it says on the tin - it fits unobtrusively under my outer jacket. It works by stopping all those leaks of cold air that seem to work their way around and through to the inner layers when riding - effectively minimising the wind chill factor. An added bonus is that it folds up small for easy storage when not required on the bike. Very useful to wear when riding during the evening chill, or when the weather tends to turn colder in SeptemberOctober here in the UK. 5-Stars from me for a quality product that looks as though it will last for ages.

Icebreaker mens merino 200 Oasis long sleeve crew base layer in black

Robert: Simply excellent.

This merino wool top was purchased as an every day item, its great at home and forms a perfect base layer for being out on the bike. The fit is excellent and it feels great against the skin.
