Find your new Motocross Jersey

Motocross and enduro jerseys at Maciag Offroad

The MX shirt is part of the basic equipment of every rider, just like the pants and the right boots. Not only the price and the design play a role in the selection, but also many other factors. We will explain to you where the differences are and which points you should pay attention to before buying.

Advantages of a long MX jersey

In contrast to mountain bike jerseys, in motocross sport there are only jerseys with long sleeves. With MX and Enduro, the track conditions and requirements are more demanding in themselves, so more protection is needed. Note that while MX shirts do not replace a protector, they do protect you from minor scratches. If you wear elbow pads, the long sleeves help to keep them in place and protect you. In principle, you can also wear them as crosser mountain bike jerseys, but they are designed for cycling in terms of cut and features.

What criteria you should pay attention to

Since even wind and weather does not stop many riders from riding, there are now MX and Enduro tricycles for all requirements. Be it for especially hot weather, in rain or with lots of wind - here the brands have come up with some innovations. Therefore, before buying you should consider for which application you want the jersey because depending on the variant, they have many advantages for one purpose, but also some disadvantages for another. Well-ventilated jerseys, for example, are made of thinner material, which allows better air circulation. This means of course that the jersey does not protect so well against rain or wind and is really only meant for hot and exhausting days on the track. Windproof MX shirts are made of a special material that repels the wind and keeps the rider warm. The disadvantage is that of course there is no ventilation on the outside, which makes you sweat a lot on hot days. And the best friend on wet days: rainproof cross jerseys. The perforated material repels moisture and keeps you dry. It's best to combine this with a off-road jacket to be prepared for even more intense wetness.

Of course, the fit is especially important for a comfortable wearing comfort. To make sure that there is the right motocross jersey for everyone, most brands also offer shirts for women and children, whose cut is adapted to the corresponding body shapes. Above all, you should pay attention to compatibility with the chest protector, because with an additional protector some jerseys can fit and stretch a little too tight. Therefore, before buying, you should check if the jersey is also compatible with the protector jacket or armour and if necessary choose a size larger. If the jersey fits too tight, it is not only uncomfortable while riding. In addition, the material is also subjected to much more stress, which leads to faster wear.

What are the differences between the different models?

Depending on the intended use, the ventilation and the material of the jersey naturally varies. But there are also other points to consider. Probably the most obvious difference is of course the design, which varies according to collection and brand. But nobody gets a raw deal here, because there are simple and discreet shirts, which are available in bright colors or even in fancy patterns. Here every rider can choose individually which jersey fits to himself and to the rest of the gear. Most brands sell matching combos, so that jersey and pants also match visually. If you attach great importance to having something from the shirt for as long as possible, you should also pay attention to the workmanship. This is usually easier with cheaper jerseys, which leads to faster wear. Who pays attention to a high-quality and detailed processing of the seams and the material at the purchase, is often happy about a more durable product.
