What Should Motorcyclists Wear For Safety?

Motorcyclists must consider many things when driving – the weather, the terrain, and other riders. But one of the most important factors is what they are wearing. You could be seriously injured in an accident while not wearing the appropriate safety gear. Accident attorneys review what motorcyclists should wear for safety whenever they get on their bikes.

Full-Face and Modular Helmets

A helmet is the safest and most essential protective gear piece every motorcyclist should have. A full-face helmet protects the face as well as the chin. USDOT approval is the minimum safety standard for helmets, but you can find a more protective helmet by adhering to the European ECE 22.05 standard.

Motorcycle Jackets

Motorcycle jackets are made of leather and textile, but leather is the most popular. During the rainy winter months, leather jackets keep you warm and dry, while textile jackets are more versatile and allow better airflow. Both are tough, durable materials that can help protect you in a crash.

Motorcycle Pants

Motorcyclist pants are the most protective in an accident. When you invest in a pair with additional armor padding around your lower extremities, you'll be more protected from injuries.

Riding Boots

As well as keeping your feet safe, riding boots provide extra grip, which makes it easier for motorcyclists to perform at their best. Motorcycles have non-slip soles that help riders maintain control on slippery surfaces. Experienced riders know that choosing the right boots is essential to protecting themselves and their passengers.

Gloves

All riders need to protect their hands from vulnerability in the event of a crash. Look for gloves with extra padding, durable fabrics, and quality stitching to ensure you're giving your hands the best protection possible.

Hot Weather Motorcycle Clothing

A full-face helmet, gloves, jackets, pants, and boots protect your skin from sun damage and dehydration. In the summer, textile jackets and pants can be more comfortable than leather. Typically, they offer lighter colors and fabrics to keep you cool.
