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.

We stock base layers from motorcycling brands like Halvarssons, Rukka and Klim but also specialist merino layers from Icebreaker.

Verified customer reviews for Motorcycle Base Layers

Halvarssons Dry shorts base layer in black

Garry: Very Comfortable in Hot Weather

Bought these as I live in Corfu and riding in the summer months makes everything clammy. These shorts work a treat in keeping you cool and comfortable on the bike. Excellent service from Motolegends as weve come to expect.

Halvarssons Dry sweater base layer in black

Keith H: Excellent product

Usual quality from Halvarssons - excellent fit, provides good support, very comfortable, really does help keep you cool in hot weather. Already had the short sleeved version, the long sleeved version is perfect to wear as a single layer under a leather jacket. Recommend.

Klim Zephyr Wind shirt in grey

Simon: Simple but effective

I already owned one of these wind shirts in blue but it was too large for me these days - so I downsized to another one in this light grey colour. These wind shirts really do work and theyre so light that they fit under any jacket. Theyre also compact when youre not wearing them and so dont take up much luggage space. I find mine particularly useful when Im riding in a ventilated summer jacket and its a bit cooler in the early morning or later in the evening. The wind shirt is also smart enough to be worn off the bike without looking like Im a biker.
