The primary benefit of wet weather gear is protection from rain, wind, and cold weather. Wet weather gear typically includes waterproof jackets, pants, gloves, and boots, which help keep riders dry and comfortable during wet conditions. Being wet and cold can not only be uncomfortable but also distracting, which can affect a rider's focus and reaction times.
Rain shells — the layer you pull on over the gear you're already wearing when the sky turns. Lightweight jackets, overpants and one-piece suits that pack down small enough to live under the seat and come out when you need them.
These are not armoured and they are not a substitute for a riding jacket. They go over the top of it, which is exactly why they work: you keep your protection, you stay dry, and you take the shell off when the rain stops.
If you'd rather have the waterproofing built into the jacket, pants or boots themselves — no extra layer to carry — that's Waterproof Motorcycle Gear.
Sizing tip: buy a rain shell one size up from your normal jacket size, so it fits over the gear rather than under it.
