Motorbike fashion has expanded massively, with so many options it can get a bit confusing on what to buy. Here are a few tips on how to ready your summer motorcycle riding gear:
Bikers are now spoilt for choice with many different varieties in all aspects of the sport. There is a bike for every personality type, vintage, modern, powerful and so on. With this comes many different kinds of accessories to match each want and need a driver wants to make their biking experiences better and safer.
In an accident, your feet will be one of the first places to smack against the pavement. Therefore it is absolutely essential that you have the best protection for your feet. This season we suggest a limited edition of motor biking boots called Trey Canard boots, which have recently been launched, bringing a real modernity and exclusivity to the biking world, not to mention some of the greatest designs and innovations in biking footwear. As they are exclusive, I would recommend going out and treating yourself before everyone else does!
Summer motorcycle gloves are a range specifically designed for riding during the hotter season. They are more focused on providing ventilation in humid and sticky temperatures rather than concentrating on shielding water and other situations that can happen in the colder, harsh weather.
One of the less talked about but just as important aspects of a biker’s wardrobe is the under armour skull cap. These are essential in properly shielding your head from being seriously damaged in an accident and to keep your hair neatly in place, making it less of a distraction and therefore a hazard while riding.
A popular addition to any motorcyclists’ wardrobe has to be their classic leather jacket. As it is an iconic item, there are many styles and varieties available, one being the Schott NYC 563 Waxy Cowhide Delivery Jacket. If you’re on the hunt for a retro, vintage-style jacket then this is exactly what you need. Look for jackets that feature a breathable liner and increased airflow. As an alternative to the classic leather jacket, which may be too heavy for those scorching summer days, look for something in mesh, which will allow your skin to breathe.
One of the latest fashionable pieces to emerge from the biking world is the 2015 KMX-1 suit. The suit is the perfect combination of security and comfort while bringing an edge to your look. It incorporates a light outer shell so will not be too heavy while being worn, perfect for the warm summer months.
Last but not least is the helmet, a staple addition to any motorcycle wardrobe. The AGV Pista GP is designed, developed and tested with Valentino Rossi to ensure complete protection and the utmost quality and will be a popular buy this summer 2015. During these hot months, look for something that has its own vent system to keep you cool.
In this summer season, it’s important to take into consideration ideal fabrics and innovative design techniques that will keep you cool. Everyone wants to be safe while riding without being uncomfortable in the heat, so do your homework, and don’t be afraid to splurge a bit on weather-appropriate gear, you’ll be glad you did.
