Aggressive rain grooves add to the all-weather capabilities of the TKC 70 tires.

The Rallye motorcycle suit by BMW Motorrad is an off-road-ready suit with useful features. It’s designed for warm to moderate temperatures, and it’s made of ProTechWool, a quick-drying temperature-regulating performance fabric made from wool and polyamide with a carbon finish.

An included wind- and waterproof liner keeps you dry and can also be worn over the jacket for protection against dirt and debris. The pants of the suit include a wind- and waterproof climate membrane insert with comfort mapping, and the suit’s material is reinforced in areas most susceptible to falls.

Ideal for off-road riding, a long leather trim on the interior of the knee allows for secure grip, and the elastic mesh lining in the jacket adds breathability.

For ventilation, the Rallye Suit uses a system of flaps on the chest, zips on the arms and legs, and a large air outlet panel on the back. A 3D air-mesh lining on the back allows better air circulation under the back protector.

The jacket has six front pockets, one large and one small pocket on the lower back, and two zipped inner pockets. The pants have four pockets. Reflective material on the sleeves, back, and pants provides visibility, and the wide, adjustable leg opening make getting into and out of the suit easier.

If you need a comfortable long-sleeved shirt for any type of riding, Aerostich’s Off-Road Motorcycle Jersey will become a favorite in your gear closet.

See Rider‘s apparel reviews here.

Aero Design & Mfg. Co. Inc. started in 1983 with the goal of developing “a completely new type of textile-based gear for motorcyclists.” The efforts of that goal resulted in the Roadcrafter suit, which is still available as the Roadcrafter Classic. Aerostich’s popular R-3 suit is the third generation of the Roadcrafter, and the R-3 can now be custom-tailored for an exact fit.

The Off-Road Jersey is another iteration of Aerostich’s commitment to rider comfort and safety, and it’s made in Aerostich’s factory in Duluth, Minnesota, right alongside the Roadcrafter and R-3 suits.

Made of heavy-duty polyester, this knit motorcycle jersey is more substantial than most jerseys, and it maintains a comfortable feel even when wet. Lightly padded elbows and Lycra collar and cuffs ensure durability and a good fit, and it self-stores in a hidden pocket. The jersey is easy to pack, takes up minimal room, and adds comfort to your ride.

The Off-Road Jersey is available in Black, Green, or Grey in sizes M-2XL for $97.
