Must-Have Riding Gear for Every Season
Sam Ortiz

Quality riding gear protects you in a fall and makes every ride more comfortable. Here's what we recommend for year-round riders.
- Helmet: a full-face helmet offers the most protection. Replace it every five years or after any impact.
- Jacket: textile jackets with removable liners handle changing temperatures. Leather offers excellent abrasion resistance.
- Gloves: go for vented gloves in summer and insulated, waterproof gloves for cool mornings.
- Pants and boots: armored riding pants and over-the-ankle boots protect your lower body.
- Rain gear: a packable rain suit takes up little space and saves a soggy commute.
