Protective apparel designed for use in low temperatures while operating motorcycles, bicycles, or horses typically includes insulated and windproof layers. Examples include heated jackets, gloves with thermal lining, and insulated riding pants.
Maintaining core body temperature and extremity warmth in frigid conditions is crucial for safe and comfortable operation of vehicles and animals. Historically, riders relied on layered natural materials like wool and leather. Advancements in textile technology have led to synthetic materials offering superior insulation, breathability, and weather resistance, significantly improving rider safety and comfort.
