Inclusivity and Empowerment on Two Wheels: Choosing the Perfect Plus Size Women's Motorcycle Gear

 

When it comes to pursuing our passion for motorcycling, nothing should hold us back – especially not the struggle to find the perfect gear in our size. As plus size women riders, it's essential to have gear that fits comfortably and offers the same level of protection and style as standard-sized options.

We'll explore some valuable tips on choosing plus size women's motorcycle gear, and we'll introduce you to MotoGirl, a popular brand catering to plus size riders up to size AU 24 jackets and AU 28 pants.

1. Prioritise Safety Without Compromising Style

Safety should always be the primary concern when selecting motorcycle gear, regardless of size. Look for gear made from high-quality materials, such as abrasion-resistant textiles or premium leather, to ensure optimal protection. Plus size women's motorcycle jackets should have sturdy armour in critical impact zones, while pants should provide reinforced knee and hip protection.

Thankfully, gone are the days when plus size gear meant compromising style. Nowadays, manufacturers like MotoGirl offer a diverse range of fashionable designs that cater specifically to plus size riders, allowing you to ride in both safety and style.

2. Optimal Fit and Comfort

Comfort is key during long rides, and a proper fit is crucial to achieving it. When trying on gear, ensure that it doesn't restrict your movement and provides ample room to layer clothing underneath during colder rides. Look for adjustable features, such as waistbands or straps, to customise the fit to your body shape.

MotoGirl stands out for its commitment to offering plus size women's gear that not only fits well but also flatters different body types. Their extensive size range, including jackets up to size AU 24 and pants up to size AU 28, ensures that every rider can find the perfect fit for an enjoyable riding experience.

3. Ventilation and Climate Considerations

Riding in different weather conditions requires gear that adapts to the climate. Look for gear with proper ventilation, such as vents or mesh panels, for breathability during warm weather. Additionally, consider the ability to add thermal liners for insulation during colder rides.

MotoGirl's range of plus size women's gear takes weather into account, offering options suitable for various climates. Their thoughtfully designed gear will keep you comfortable and protected, regardless of the riding conditions.

4. Waterproof and Water-Resistant Features

Rain is an inevitable part of riding, and having gear with waterproof or water-resistant capabilities is essential. Look for jackets and pants with sealed seams and water-repellent treatments to keep you dry during unexpected downpours.

REV'IT! understands the importance of staying dry on the road and offers a selection of waterproof gear, ensuring that you can continue your adventure with confidence, regardless of the weather.

5. Trusted Brands and Reviews

When choosing plus size women's motorcycle gear, it's always helpful to look for reviews and feedback from other riders. Trusted brands with a reputation for providing reliable and inclusive gear are worth exploring.

MotoGirl has garnered a loyal following among plus size riders due to its dedication to creating high-quality, stylish, and functional gear. Their commitment to inclusivity ensures that all riders, regardless of size, can gear up and hit the road with confidence.
